Style it to suit your glasses!

Do you have problems finding a style to suit your glasses. This handy blog answers some of your questions.
How do I find the right pair of glasses?
You can either enhance your features or style with a radical pair of high fashion glasses, or blend them in with your face shape, so that they become part of your look – the choice is yours. But always take a friend with you when choosing a pair, their second opinion can be invaluable!

What about going out in the evening?
You should think about matching your glasses to a variety of different styles when visiting your hairdresser, even if you just like to wear your hair behind your ears one day and loose the next. If you want a hairstyle that suits two pairs of glasses let your stylist know before your hair is cut. Take them with you to the salon so you can try them on as your hair is cut.

What about finding the right hair colour?
If your glasses are a neutral metal colour or a brown shade you shouldn’t really have any trouble with colours. But if you like to have a little colour on your glasses remember that your hair may have to be slightly altered to match them perfectly. Chat with your stylist and take your glasses with you to hold next to the shade card.

Can I ever wear my hair up with my glasses?
Of course you can! There are numerous tricks that can be used to hide many head shape issues when putting your hair up normally, let alone balancing your look when you are wearing glasses. Go for a look that is soft and curly around the ears for a feminine touch.

Rooney's Slick 'Do

Rooney Mara’s slicked-back hair is the perfect contrast to her feminine dress. This look works best on people with a strong jawline or features.

1.     Start by creating a side parting and then work some wet-look gel through your hair from roots to tips.

2.     Pull your hair back into a low bun and secure with grips. This look also works really well with crops, you just miss out this step.

3.     Finish off with some more gel making sure the finished look is slick and smooth.
