40's Glamour

ASK FOR: Beautiful, bouncy curls for a lush, glamorous look—have your stylist make Veronica Lake waves with extra volume! To maintain the fullness all night, hair stylist Jeanie Syfu suggests applying Tresemmé 24 hour Body Mousse to towel dried hair before blow drying. For this hairstyle, a large-barrel curling iron is the key to the perfect-size curl. To complete your retro look, add a silk flower accessory.

High Drama

ASK FOR: A chignon for a chic evening wedding. Pull hair into a high ponytail and tease for volume. Then bring hair back, pin at the base of the ponytail and gently brush the surface smooth.

Pony Up


ASK FOR: A gorgeous, high ponytail—a winning look that will work for day or for evening. “To help prevent flyaways, lightly spray your hairbrush with Tresemmé Tres Two Ultra Fine Mist before using it to sweep your mane back into a ponytail,” Syfu suggests. For the perfect finishing touch, accessorize with a pretty crystal barrette.

Goddess Waves


ASK FOR: Natural waves! Instead of using rollers, have your stylist twist and pin your hair into mini buns while damp. Let dry, then undo buns and finger-comb the hair into long flowing waves.

ASK FOR: A sophisticated updo for evening. A cage veil adds whimsical charm. The key to a sleek, polished updo is frizz control and lots of shine—try René Furterer Spray Gloss.
