Very popular 70s hairstyle – Farrah Fawcett style brushing

There are some of these iconic hairstyles that have revolutionized the hairdressing world. To the point of transforming the first faces who dared them into reference models for the look in question. This is particularly the case of American actress Farrah Fawcett with her famous lion’s mane. Undoubtedly, the role in the famous series Drôle de dames played a major role in the popularization of hairdressing.

The voluminous layering with locks wavy outwards gives hair volume and vitality. In order to achieve those subtle, messy-looking curls, it is more than enough to use a hair dryer and a brush or a blower brush. For a more marked effect, consider using curlers or a curling iron.

Very refined and with a brilliant shine, these curls sometimes started from flat roots and flowed into the lengths. Accessorized with a flower, the femininity and festivity of the hairstyle are further emphasized. The love for curls was particularly prized by Afro circles, whose culture finally managed to join the mainstream at this time.
