1. Twisted half-up

This twisted half-up half-down hairstyle is cute and casual, and will give you an upgraded look whether you’re headed for school, or you’re off to hang out with your friends.

2. Low & loose twisted ponytail

This look has just the right amount of romance to it, perfect if you’re going for a soft, feminine vibe. It can be casual but at the same time it’s also dreamy enough for date nights and other fancier occasions. You can leave a few loose strands for a nice face-framing effect.

Editor’s tip: To achieve that pretty bouncy tail, wash your hair with Dove Oxygen & Nourishment Shampoo and Dove Oxygen & Nourishment Conditioner so it’s left looking and feeling soft, nourished, and full of natural volume. Then add soft waves by using a flat iron with rounded plates before twisting.

5. Twist & Stack

Here’s another interesting way to wear a twist hairstyle. Doesn’t matter if you have long, medium, or short hair—this look works for any length. To create this look, create loose curls, and when you’re happy with your waves, take about an inch-wide section of hair from near each of your temples and twist them, and bring together with an elastic. Create two to three more pairs beneath and over the first. Set in place with a generous mist of TRESemmé Salon finish Extra Hold Hairspray.
