If you're ready to take your hairdo to the next level, there are different hairstyling techniques that can give you dramatically better results. Whether your hair is shorter or longer in length or straighter or curlier in texture, many of today's hottest hairstyling methods can work well for different hair types. A knowledgeable stylist may be able to use one or more of these techniques to give you the ravishing head of hair that you desire.

Balayage

To achieve this look, the stylist can paint the highlighting solution onto the hair so that the color is darker toward the hair roots and gets lighter as it progresses toward the tips. This style is intended to make your hair look as though it was naturally lightened by the sun. You can book a balayage appointment with a stylist who knows how to perform this technique correctly. 

Arched Bangs

Having your bangs sculpted into an arched pattern can help give your face an attractive frame and may be especially good if you have an oval-shaped face. Arched bangs can also hide your forehead if you want people to notice this area less. The look can be created with a razor that the stylist uses to make the section of bangs over the forehead shorter while keeping the sides of the bangs longer to blend in better with the rest of the hair.

Blowout

Your hair's volume can be increased using the blowout technique. With the use of a hairdryer and some special combs and brushes, the stylist can shape your hair into a fuller, richer style. A styling solution may also be applied to your hair before the stylist creates your blowout look so that your hair will be easier to style and hold in place. The stylist will then divide the hair into sections and blow-dry, brush, and comb each section to achieve the desired look. A blowout may be especially beneficial for you if you have naturally thinner hair or curls that you want to straighten.

Side Sweep

There are several versions of this asymmetrical hairstyle, but one of the most popular side sweep styles involves cutting the hair on the back and sides shorter while keeping the hair on top longer. You can also opt for a side-swept braided look or a loose side bun. Your stylist may even recommend a curly side-swept style if you want to add more softness to your look.

The right hairstyle can help you make the statement that you want. Whether you want your stylist to use the balayage technique or one of the other styling methods, the best look can possibly be achieved with any of these hairstyling techniques.
