Trend: 80's Pin-Up

Simple, yet effective, this feminine style is the perfect accompaniment to your favourite summer dress. Loved by the likes of Rihanna, this pin-up girl hairstyle lets you maintain a carefree look, whilst being completely in control.

To get the look:

1. Apply Taft FULL ON Booster Volume Mousse to the roots of wet hair and blow dry brushing hair in upwards motions away from the root for that extra bit of va va voom
2. Tie your hair back into a casual ponytail, leaving your fringe out
3. Spray on Taft FULL ON Guardian Angel Straightening Iron Spray to protect your locks as you curl your ponytail in small sections at a time, using a hot iron or curling tongs
4. Once your ponytail is full of loose curls, pin your hair above the tie to the back of your head using bobby pins
5. Curl any fringe sections away from the face - and complete the look by using Taft FULL ON Freeze It Fixing Hairspray to hold it in place as you dance the day away!
[Tip: Add a bow for a finishing touch!]

Trend: Faux Hawk

Attitude embodied in a hairstyle - mohawks and faux hawks are trending this season. Emeil Sande is the real deal, but if you have long hair, here are a few tricks to achieve the look without braving the chop.

To get the look:

1. Spritz your hair with Taft FULL ON Guardian Angel Straightening Iron Spray before straightening the bottom half of your hair using hot irons
2. Section off a wide strip of hair down the centre of your head where you want your faux hawk to sit and pull back the excess hair underneath into a tight ponytail
3. Tease the ponytail and pin to the back of your head with bobby pins using Taft FULL ON Freeze It Fixing Hairspray for maximum hold
4. Apply Taft FULL ON Booster Volume Mousse to the loose hair on the top of your head to hold the faux hawk in place. Pull the loose hair forward and starting from the back - backcomb the hair in sections so that it sits away from the crown.
[Style tip: For short hair, Taft FULL ON Smooth Operator Anti-Frizz Lotion is ideal for getting ends looking sharp and protecting against UV rays!]
5. Brush along the top of the faux hawk and mould it into the desired shape, finishing with your ever-faithful Taft FULL ON Freeze It Fixing Hairspray

Trend: Boho Waves

Creating perfect waves doesn't happen without a little effort! Both on and off the stage this timeless hairstyle is perfect for every occasion. Best of all - with the help of the Taft FULL ON female range, it can be easily achieved.

To get the look:

1. Scrunch Taft FULL ON Booster Volume Mousse to damp hair, at the roots
2. Blow dry your hair whilst holding your head upside-down. This will create effortless body and works for even the finest of hair
3. Add a little extra Taft FULL ON Smooth Operator Anti-Frizz Lotion to give amazing weightless lustre and softness whilst controlling flyaways
4. Spritz your hair with Taft FULL ON Guardian Angel Straightening Iron Spray and curl hair one section at a time
5. Once curled, gently run fingers through hair, to soften the waves
6. Finish off the look with Taft FULL ON Fixing Hairspray for high performance that lasts, without any stickiness or residue
