Crave change? Try one of these fast (and fabulous!) styling tips, courtesy of Frédéric Fekkai Salon Creative Director Alexandre Chouery:

Tousled Waves
When getting out of the shower, towel dry your hair and apply Fekkai Luscious Curls Cream evenly throughout. Part your hair down the middle and braid into two loose braids, like pigtails and secure with elastic. Take your blowdryer and dry the hair for 3-4 minutes. Once the hair is dry, undo the braids for sexy, wavy, loose curls that only take 5 minutes!

Sleek & Chic
To take your hair from day to night or from office to cocktails— make a deep side part in your hair over your eyebrow. Secure the hair in a low slung side ponytail. You can use a little styling gel or pomade to smooth the hair down, or add a nice jeweled clip for all-out glamor.

Modern Chignon
For a quick and easy chignon, put the hair into a ponytail. Braid the ponytail hair and secure the end with an elastic. Then take a few bobby pins and pin the braid up- pull a few pieces loose in the front- the result is chic and sexy... And easy!

Sexy & Voluminous
For really sexy volume, flip your head over and apply hairspray throughout the layers of your hair. Flip your head back over and you will have great volume! The big mistake that most women make is applying hairspray to the top of the hair, which only weighs it down.

Luminous Locks
When finishing a blowdry, give hair a blast of cold air pointing the blowdryer down. This will close the hair shaft and leave hair with intense shine.
