If you are after a hairstyle that combines both elegance and playfulness, look no further than half-up half-down hair. This is the classic look that many of us tend to fall back on for its ability to make us look put together in minutes. Great on all hair colours, types and lengths, whether you have shoulder length hair, long lengths or even a bob cut (yes, it's really possible), this is the versatile look that truly suits-all.
With a rare ability of suiting all manner of occasions - it can take you from a day at the office to a night out on the town - it's also a great style to rely on between wash days, helping you to go from greasy to snatched with a few swift moves. It's the true hair all-rounder but don't just take our word for it, look to the roster of celebs who call the style their signature, like Ariana Grande. Luckily it's very easy to do and easy to switch up. For an evening look, you could add in some curls for full-on volume or if you prefer a summer vibe, add some bows like Hailey Bieber.
