Transcript:How to Wear a Short Straight Hairstyle

Hello! My name is Ashley Flanagan. I am a Professional Stylist at Norris of Houston Salon & Day Spa in Houston, Texas. Today we have men who have straight shorter hair.

Only Shampoo is Needed on Short Straight Hair

The first step that we are going to take with his hair is we are going to shampoo it. With this hair generally you can any use any kind of shampoo; hydrating, straightening, moisturizing, generally anything. After shampooing Min's hair we do not use any conditioner. His hair is very, very straight and very short, so conditioner is not necessarily needed.

Use Texturizer to Give Short Straight Hair Added Shape

So I went ahead and I towel dried Min's hair. And with his hair a challenge is, the sides have really straight hair, they are short, they tend to stick out, so keeping the hair at a shorter length is the best way to go. We are going to use a texturizer in his hair and we are going to use about a quarter size of an amount. We are going to rub it throughout our hands and we are generally going to start on the top, just gently spreading it from one side to the other, forward and straight.

Briefly Blow Dry to AddVolume to Short Straight Hair

Lastly, with this type of hair, there are many things you can do. You can bring all the hair back with the texture paste and blow dry the hair on a warm heat to get the hair to have more volume up top. With shorter hair, a lot of blow drying time is not necessary. So just gently taking your fingertips, separating the pieces of where you want the volume in the front.

Another helpful hint is using a nice top serum coat in the hair to give it more of a shine look instead of a textured matted look. This adds a lot more shine and glow to the hair, makes the hair look a lot softer and flatter. And that is how you can complete short straight hair.
