90s Middle Parts, Botticelli Bobs…

“Potentially inspired by the Botticelli wave trend, I’m noticing a movement towards middle partings. An easy element that can be introduced on many different hair lengths and textures, a middle parting can be a great way to switch up your look if you don’t normally wear your hair in the middle. 

“Seen on various celebrities, it doesn’t matter if the hair is straight, wavy, up or down – a middle parting celebrates precision and attention to detail that automatically makes you look more put together.”

How to do the 90s middle parting…

“To create a precise middle parting, use a pin-tail comb to trace back from the centre of your hairline. You can find this by tracing up from the bridge of your nose or between your eyebrows to make sure you’ve got a perfect, symmetrical position. 

“Stand squarely in front of a mirror, with balanced posture (not slouching or resting your weight to one side) to make sure you get the perfect straight line. 

“It’s best to create your middle parting while your hair is freshly washed and still slightly damp. This will allow you to effectively train your hair to sit in this position until it’s time for your next hair wash. 

“If one side of your hair is bumpy, comb it straight down while it’s still damp and tuck it behind your ear, using a section clip to hold the hair down if necessary. If you leave it in this position until it’s at least 50% dry you’ll have more control over any bumpiness as you proceed through the rest of your hair styling.”
