Here’s a list of trendy hairstyles spotted at the recent MTV Video Music Awards (VMA) event in the US and tips on how to recreate them at home by celebrity hairstylist, Asgar Saboo.
* The playful pony: Miley Cyrus and Britney Spears wore it during this year’s VMA’s and it is also seen all over the runways. It’s sophisticated and playful which is perfect for showing off killer cheek bones. Pull your hair back tight and make sure that it’s all fastened on the top of your head, using Kate Moss’ ‘Croydon face lift’ as inspiration.
* Boho waves: This year Vanessa Hudgens rocked the look but it has always been a firm favourite among celebrities at the VMA awards. Either plait your hair and sleep on it for lived in waves, or use curling tongs and take random sections for the same effect. Make sure you use some salt spray to get the tousled, sexy style that’s been so popular recently, and backcomb to get the volume you want at the roots.
* Fringe: It is all about the fringe this year like Kylie Jenner and Nicki Minaj showcased during the event. If you are not ready for the commitment of a full-on haircut, why not try clip-on fringes, an easy way to change up your look for a night out? Simply clip the fringe in to the crown of your head, beneath strands of hair to conceal the clip.
* The wet look: Demi Lovato and Kim Kardashian were seen sporting the ‘just-came-out-of-the-shower’ look, and it’s not as complicated as it looks. Simply comb the hair back with a flat paddle brush and apply some fixing hair gel. Do not be afraid to use large quantities, you are aiming for a wet finish. Finish the style off by tucking strands of loose hair behind your ears and spraying with hair spray.
* Middle parts: The easiest look to recreate, and a favourite at the VMAs. Ciara, Kourtney Kardashian and Emily Ratajkowski all opted for the classic middle part. For all with a side part, try something different and create a simple middle parting.
