Be seductive from your head to your toes with these fab hairstyles.

-Janine Jarman

Ah, love is in the air, and the best Valentine’s Day hair styles should be just like a great relationship–romantic, effortless and long-lasting! So keep it simple and swept away with these three easy looks!

Sealed with a Twist

Ideal for for medium-length to long hair, this look is naturally sexy enough for an afternoon or outdoor date! A few hours before your V-Day plans, run Sebastian Taming Elixir through slightly damp hair and braid hair in two braids. About one hour before your date, take hair out of braids and shake loose. Apply Sebastian Molding Mud to the front section of your hair (about a two-inch section, from ear to ear), then twist across the hairline and pin behind the ear. Finish with Sebastian Shaper Zero Gravity hair spray. If you have long hair, you can sweep hair to the side in a loose ponytail to finish the look.

Beauty and the Braid

This look is great for short to medium-length hair and can hold its own on the most adventurous of dates! Prep hair with Sebastian Crafting Clay to help create texture. Braid hair in two braids over your ears. For shorter hair, just braid the front hair line or add a braided hair piece. Brush the braids with a soft brush to create a fuzzy texture (or for a more sophisticated evening out, do not brush the braids). Cross the braids over the top of your head and over one another (left braid to right ear, and right braid to left ear). Pin the ends behind each ear. Finish with Sebastian Shaper Zero Gravity hair spray.

Love on Top

This sexy tousled up do is ideal for long hair and a fancy night on the town! Prep damp/wet hair with Sebastian Volupt Spray from root to ends to create added volume and blow dry in. Pull hair up into a high ponytail, leaving the front section of hair out. Topsy tail the pony forward (push mid-shaft and ends forward through the bottom base of hair elastic). Set ends of hair on a large iron (1” barrel), clip to cool and spray with Sebastian Shaper Zero Gravity hair spray. Once cool, unclip and back brush at mid shaft to create frothy volume. Pin around base and finish with a hat or long frilly feather pin on each side, making a fun headband. To dress it down, swap the headband for a floppy bow. Finish with Sebastian Shaper Fierce hair spray and Sebastian Trilliant shimmer complex.
