When it comes to a middle part, there are usually two camps: love it or hate it. Whether it makes you feel like a powerful badass or like your hair has been glued to your face, the middle part has withstood the test of time. It?s flirty, dynamic, face-defining and bold. For a hairstyle that elicits such strong emotions, we thought best to turn to two professionals for the low-down on creating, perfecting and rocking a middle part?even if you feel like it?s not for you.
Step-by-Step Instructions
If you?re going to go for the hairstyle, might as well have experts such as Justine Marjan, celebrity hairstylist who?s worked on the Kardashians, Ashley Graham and Chrissy Teigen, and L?Oréal Paris celebrity hairstylist Jonathan Colombini tell you how to do it. Both advised first grabbing a rattail comb?the ones that form a point at the end?to create the part. To determine where to make the middle part, Marjan says to use the ?bridge of the nose as a guide.? Move up toward the ?front hairline, use the tip of the comb and move it straight back toward the crown of the head.? For the easiest route, Colombini advises starting with wet hair. ?For a flawless, natural-looking part that won?t fight back, start your part with wet hair.? He also recommends a heat protectant such as L?Oréal Paris Elvive Total Repair 5 Protein Recharge Treatment before styling.
