How To Reproduce Audrina Patridge’s Hairstyle Yourself
Listen up! Audrina’s natural hair color is a rich brown that has been colored professionally. Her haircut is based on tiaglio layers that are cut to compliment her facial features, and her front shortest layers dangle just below her jaw line. The tiaglio layering orbits from side to side providing individualized contouring.
Dimension A Salon, San Francisco, suggests seeking out a
well-rounded hairstylist for both the cut and hair color.
When drying your hair, you will want to use a hairstyling cocktail that consists of a volumizer plus one to two drops of serum. Emulsify the cocktail in your hands, and apply onto towel-dried hair. To apply, use your fingers as a comb; and start at your ends, then proceed up your hair until you get to the scalp. Note you’re applying product from the ends to your scalp. This prevents your hair from looking greasy at your scalp, and frizzy at the ends.
Next, power-dry your hair. Power-dry means to dry your hair at the scalp, and leave the hair ends slightly dampened. Then, section off your hair; and use a 3-4” porcupine bore bristle round brush to dry each section off. Dimension A Salon suggests working with brushes that have an orangewood base over a metal conductor base. Why? Because orangewood base brushes, do not scald delicate hair shafts. Also, be sure to have your hairdryer nozzle atop of the hair so that you’re gliding the hairdryer down the hair shaft as you’re rolling the brush. This motion lends hand to smooth the cuticle down. Dimension A Salon furthermore suggests breaking each section of hair into smaller manageable sections as well, and dry from the bottom hairline upwards to your crown area. Yes ladies, this will take additional time; but you’ll achieve a smoother result with more volume. When you deem your hair dry, run your fingers through it. Any damp or cold areas felt means moisture still remains. Should this be the case, go back through and thoroughly dry.
Last, to create Audrina’s soft curl finish you’ll need a 3” curling iron. Opt for vertical sections the size of the curling iron, but don’t run your fingers through each curled section until after you’ve curled the entire head. Prior to jetting out the door, lightly spray a flexible hairspray to capture the inspired look. Viola!
