Taylor Swift seems to have been on the music scene for years and yet she is still only 22 years old. She signed her first recording contract when she was just 14 and was nominated as the Best New Artist at the Grammy awards at the ripe old age of 19.
Known mainly for her country- style songs, Taylor has successfully made the cross over into main stream music after releasing her second album, Fearless, the biggest selling album in the US in 2008.
Her latest release, We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, shot to number four in the charts and has earned her a new generation of fans.
With naturally curly hair, Taylor has the styling versatility to wear her hair in practically any style she wants to.
For this look, she has gone much sleeker yet still has some soft movement in her hair to make it look less harsh on her.
Some people with curly hair are a little scared of trying to smooth their hair, but with a few simple steps and a little time, it is a look which most people can achieve.
Start by shampooing and conditioning as normal.
Use hair-smoothing products,such as the Straight-A-Holic range. These really do help the straightening process as you wash by smoothing the hair and softening it slightly to make styling easier.
Towel-dry your hair and apply Straight Talking Straightening Cream evenly through.
Take a section of hair and dry using your brush and pointing the nozzle of your hairdryer down the hair from root to ends to eliminate any flyaways.
Now its time to add the finish and gloss. Do this with straighteners. Take a small section of hair again, spray with Work it Girl Shine Protect and Control Spray and then gently glide the straighteners down the hair.
As you get to the top and front sections, when you get to the mid-lengths, twist your straighteners through 180 degrees so what was the bottom plate is now on the top of the section, and carry on gliding them through. This creates the soft movement with a really glossy finish.
Use your fingers or a wide-tooth comb to comb through and spray your finished style with Bedazzled Anti-Humidity Shine Spray for extra shine.
