With summer just around the corner, it’s no surprise that you might find yourself looking in the mirror and considering a complete style revamp. From dying your locks, to rocking a different hairstyle or trying out a new trend, there are a number of ways to refresh your look; but had you considered the simple solution of moving your parting from the centre to the side? Often underestimated, the positioning of your parting has the potential to change your face entirely, and do you want to know the best part? It’s completely reversible, meaning you can change your mind without any hassle. Here, we look to the hottest events of the season for the ultimate side parting inspiration.
Emma Stone at the Oscars
Undoubtedly the talk of this year’s event, the gorgeous Emma Stone wore her parting to the side with tumbling waves and a swept over fringe. Oh so glamorous!
Karlie Kloss at the Oscars
Speaking of glamour, Karlie Kloss channelled her inner Hollywood with a combination of coral lips and side-parted waves.
The Jenner sisters at the Met Gala
While Kendall Jenner went for a messy, slicked over side parting (coupled with her signature red lips, of course) younger sister Kylie opted for a just-off-the-centre side parting. We think it looked super chic with her platinum bob, don’t you?
Brie Larson at the Met Gala
Styled by Mara Rosak, Brie Larson turned heads at the Met Gala by going for a side parting up-do with metallic detailing. We reckon the gold pieces were a stunning touch, especially as they matched the discreet gold makeup around her eyes. Heading to a festival in the next few months? We say a glitter or embellished parting is the perfect party crown.
Kirsten Dunst at the Oscars
Nobody masters the rock and roll look quite like Kirsten Dunst. With waterfall waves in a wonderfully tousled up-do, the actress pairs it perfectly with smoky eyes and a redder-than-red lipstick.
Charlize Theron at the Oscars
The lovely Charlize Theron showed us how to make short hair stylish with a beautiful side parted ponytail at this year’s Oscars. Worn with a strong shimmer and minimal makeup, our eyes were immediately drawn to her dramatic earrings. When it comes to partings, it’s all about balancing your look accordingly. While a centre parting and natural waves look great with just-off-the-beach nude hues, a sharp and slick side parting with minimal jewellery calls for a striking lip colour or eye shadow.
So, move along centre partings, this year it’s clearly all about taking sides. Whether you’re after a special side parting for a one-off occasion or are looking to shape your hair to sit in a side parting more consistently, why not pop into The House of Klamer so our friendly team can give you a hand?
