Flexibility. It's what women want in their yoga teachers, their spouses, and -
most importantly - their hair. We females love checking out couture looks, but when it comes to our own strands, we crave locks that look just as good in a ponytail as they do in an updo. Here you'll find oh-so-wearable cuts and styles - and the makeup to match.
Got body? This spiral set creates a springy curl. A flat-ironed side-swept bang and braided crown adds serious style. A nearly-nude face keeps you from looking overdone. |
|
Apply contour paste to give hair an alternative texture and edgy appearance. A shiny salmon-shaded lip serves as a bold contrast. |
|
For a go-anywhere updo, take imperfect sections at the sides of the head and twist back to secure with remaining hair. Vibrant teal shadow, used just at the lash line, adds the right kind of funk. |

The classic "press and curl" look is designed for the everyday woman on the go. A quick swipe of peachy gloss draws attention to a bright smile. |
|
Bump up fullness and length with extensions finished with a large-barrel marcel iron. Pearl highlighter can serve as an eyelift in powder form. |
|
Finally, proof that girl-power curls can be elegant when swept to the side. Blush like you mean it with a rosy cream blended onto the apples of the cheeks. |

A romantic collection of brushed-out curls works with natural texture. Luminescent skin is yours when you throw out heavy foundation and stick with concealer and tinted moisturizer. |
|
Sophistication has staying power with a wrapped side pony and side-draped bang. Look "just-back-from-vacation" all year by lightly dusting bronzer on the cheeks, chin and forehead. |
|
Make flat-ironed strands special with a real "hair" band. Select a square-inch segment hidden behind the ear. Braid the section and wrap across the top, securing the opposite side with bobby pins. |

Experience the evolution of the ponytail with a loose pomp created with light teasing and bobby pins at the crown. Work black eyeliner into the top lash line for casual drama. |
|
A gently-swooping bang makes curls look ultra fresh. Leave bottom lashes nearly bare to make eyes appear bigger. |
|
Twist the section of hair over the ears back and together into a loose, low bun on one side and curl the remaining strands. Nude lips let flirty eyes have the last word. |

Achieve a soft but edgy look with blonde extensions. Bring out your bone structure by contouring with bronzer and add highlight sparingly for a pretty glow. |
|
Soft curls are made more modern with a side part and height at the crown. Smoky purple shades with false lashes bring attention to the eyes. |
|
An angular part and loosely-gathered strands declare you prepped to party. Fuschia lips give an evening look a fun punch of color. |

Glam up with a volumized blowout by drying in four sections with a ceramic round brush. Shine like the sun by swapping bronzer for blush and dotting cheek bones with a warm highlighter. |
|
Create lots of volume at crown by teasing, then tightly pull sides back, smoothing flat with styling wax. Turn the heat up with a cool application of red lipstick. |
|
Rock a faux bob by applying hair powder to give height in the crown. Leave front layers out with the back pulled into a tight bun and finish with a thorn-free flower to hide pins. |

Get big volume by blow drying until barely damp, starting at the nape and working towards the crown with a round brush. Sweep coral shadow over the lid for refreshed-looking eyes. |
|
Sexy, pulled-back hair needs height, so tease bangs at the root. Stay with your daytime color palate for a quick transition; just add a deeper brown to the crease for drama. |
|
Starting in the front, loosely pin curls up and off the face for a loose, messy updo. A fashion-forward trend is to pair bold eyes and lips. Top spice lipstick with a dab of gloss. |
