1. The Farrah Flick

Ah, the iconic Farrah Flick! This is the look that defines 70s hair for so many. It’s all about those outward-sweeping feathered layers around the face, paired with serious volume. It’s glamorous, fun, and instantly recognizable. To get that famous flick, use large rollers or a big round brush and your blow-dryer, sweeping sections away from your face. It takes a little practice, but it’s so worth it for this legendary style!
Frequently Asked Questions
I get a lot of questions about bringing these amazing 70s hair looks into today. It’s totally understandable! You might be wondering if these styles will work for you or how to keep them looking great. Let’s tackle some common questions I hear about rocking that fabulous 70s vibe.
Are 70s hairstyles suitable for all hair types?
Yes, absolutely! While some styles might seem geared towards certain textures, most 70s looks can be adapted. A shag can work with different hair densities, and volume can be created even on finer hair with the right techniques. Sometimes it’s about finding the right variation or using specific products. Chatting with a stylist is always a good idea; they can tailor a cut or style to your unique hair type and texture.
How can I maintain the volume in 70s styles?
Volume is key for so many 70s looks! Start with volumizing shampoo and conditioner, but don’t use too much conditioner near the roots. Blow-drying upside down or using a round brush to lift roots helps a lot. Mousse applied to damp roots before drying is a game-changer. Finishing with a light-hold hairspray keeps everything lifted without feeling stiff. Avoid heavy serums or oils on your roots.
What products are essential for recreating 70s looks?
Okay, my must-haves for 70s hair are definitely volumizing mousse for lift, a good flexible-hold hairspray to keep things in place, and texturizing spray for that effortless, lived-in feel. If you’re using heat tools for flicks or waves, a heat protectant is non-negotiable. And a wide-tooth comb is great for maintaining texture without causing frizz.
Conclusion
See? The 70s gave us so much more than just one iconic look! From the choppy shag to glamorous updos, there’s a vibe for every mood and hair type. Don’t be afraid to play around and find the 70s hair idea that speaks to you. Hair is all about having fun and expressing yourself.
