Transform hair with a parting

Bored with your hair? If you're happy with your cut and colour, but fancy a change, then the simple way of transforming your look is moving your parting.

By changing the side of the parting, or creating a central strip rather than a low side part, hair will take on a totally new shape. "Deep side partings are a strong look that nod towards masculinity, but with a sexy attitude as well. It helps you make a strong statement, without having to over-do your hair," says Redken creative consultant and session stylist extraordinaire Guido.  A centre parting can look sexy and sensual - as seen at Versace. Guido applied blow-dry gel then set the hair in large rollers to create loose, screen-siren waves. While a side parting, with the hair skimming over one eye a la Bottega Venetta, can be feminine and peek-a-boo sexy.
