Farrah Fawcett Hairstyle
How to style your hair like Farrah Fawcett in Charlie's Angels
Farrah Fawcett’s feathered hairstyle in Charlie’s Angels is the most iconic and most emulated of its time. So iconic, in fact, that it’s simply known as The Farrah. Many starlets have given Farrah Fawcett's hairstyle their own modern interpretation, making the backward-facing curls softer and more subdued. Simply by turning down the fluff-and-flip factor (you can do this by forgoing hot rollers), you can make Farrah's haristyle your own. Use these tips to style your hair like a modern day Farrah Fawcett, or try on feathered hairstyles in our virtual hairstyle studio.
Ask your stylist for long layers allover and long bangs that can be side-swept to one side of the face, Charlie’s Angels style. Farrah’s most dramatic layers begin at her cheekbone and are angled downward to the ends.To achieve texture and volume like Farrah Fawcett, apply a mouse or texturizing lotion to wet hair, from root to tip. Blow dry your hair upside down and side to side, using a large paddle brush to achieve volume. The paddle brush will smooth the hair and maximize volume.Bear in mind that you don't want your modern day Farrah interpretation to be too big and Texas-like. Update this icnoic hairstyle by using a flat-iron (yes, a flat iron!) to flip the front of your hair in an outward-facing direction. Clamp the iron shut on your hair, as close to the roots as possible, and pull it down until you get a few inches from the ends, at which point you can flip the iron in an upward motion to create a soft, backwards bend that moves away from the face. Finish with a light hair spray for flexible hold. --Stephanie Simons
