Celeb Watch...Middle Partings

The hottest hairstyle right now is the simplest to achieve. Middle parting + long lengths = A-list favourite; celebrity hairstylist Paul Merritt calls this the 'no trend trend'. "It’s classic with connotations of 1960’s retro, yet still modern, chic and relaxed all at the same time" Paul tells us.
"Different looks can be achieved through subtle tweaks - a wavy, slightly tousled texture is perfect for fine hair to create volume and an illusion of depth" says Paul, look to Clemence Posey for inspiration.
Alternatively, you can take inspiration from Olivia and add polish with luxe, glossy curls. Also worthy of note, it's not just texture that is versatile. Whether it's this summer's plaits or next season's ponytail you'll be able to perfect every updo imaginable. And the best bit? With so many styling variations, it suits everyone.
