Dana Tizzio’s “10 Minute (No brush) Updo Braid”
This DIY ‘do will take you from a bad hair moment or a long day at the office to black tie-chic without any hot tools or hair prep. Not even a hairbrush is required! All you’ll need is a few pins, hair ties, and a mini/travel-sized version of your favorite dry shampoo/texturizing spray.
 
1. Section 1/4 hair from side part to ear, and add Shu Uemura Texture Wave spray for volume.
2. Start braid at part, focusing braid at front of forehead, and secure end with elastic.
3. Spritz more Texture Wave spray throughout hair to enhance texture for easier styling (also helps keep everything in place better for the long haul).
4. Without brushing, twist all of hair to the side of braid and secure with elastic, creating a ponytail.
5. Braid ponytail, including front braid, and secure end with elastic. (It does not need to be tight)
6. Hold one piece of braid at the end with one hand. With the other hand, push entire braid upward from the bottom with your fingers to create a rouging effect.
7. Wrap braid to create a bun or knot shape, nestled on one side of your head for the best look. You want your style to be seen!
8. Secure with bobby pins, and use the hair pins to manage any loose ends.
9. Loosen the front of the braid and work your way back. Widen from the start of the braid for an effect that beautifully frames your face by pulling apart gently on each section. This will create a softer and more romantic, evening-ready braided look.
 


Jason J. Dougherty’s “Quick Men’s Style”

1. Start with clean, just washed hair and comb through before applying product.
2. Using a quarter-sized amount of gel serum, emulsify using your hands and apply product throughout hair.
3. With a fine tooth comb, comb through front half of hair, while blow drying on a low setting. Blow dry back half of hair while simply running fingers through.
4. Use texturizing spray such as Oribe’s Dry Texturizing Spray to roots at the front for a boost. Your style will thank you later. Sculpt hair with hands.
5. Apply a styling wax on sides and back of hair for a polished look.
6. Finish with a medium (more flexible) hairspray like Oribe’s non-sticky Super Fine throughout for extra shine and hold.
