A tousled and textured hairstyle is perfect for those seeking a charming and effortlessly romantic look. The layers in such a hairstyle add movement and volume, creating a soft, feminine look. The tousled and textured hairstyle is ideal for those with straight or slightly wavy hair. If you find hair styling challenging, a tousled and textured look is easy to achieve! Start with dry hair and apply a texturizing spray to create a definition and enhance the tousled effect. Use a curling iron to create loose waves, alternating the direction of the curls for a more natural look. Scrunch your hair gently with your fingers to separate the waves and add texture. Finish with a light-hold hairspray to ensure your charming, romantic hairstyle lasts.

This style works well with various hair types and lengths, making it a suitable choice for short hair. To style the rounded cut, start with clean, dry hair and use a round brush while blow-drying to add volume and smoothness. Finish off with a light hairspray to hold the shape.
