9 Gorgeous Asian Hairstyles for Women with Naturally Straight Hair
Straight Asian tresses are highly versatile and can be worn many ways. From sleek long hair to chic short cuts, these styles enhance your natural beauty, complementing your face shape and skin tone with elegance. Since how you wear your locks can drastically alter your appearance, we've prepared some inspiration to get your creative juices flowing.
Let’s dive into these tailored options!
1. All natural, long, and straight
Sometimes the best things in life are simple and this style is simplicity at its best. Let your tresses flow freely for a refined yet effortless look. With this look it's important that your hair stays bouncy and clean for a voluminous look. Greasy and limp is a hard no.
Whether your personal style is sexy and glamorous or sweet and preppy, center parted and long is a low maintenance style that looks good on most women. To finish your look, we recommend using a boar's hair brush to control flyaways and to get that brilliant salon shine.
2. Short and sweet with wispy fringe
A short look can be playful yet very feminine at the same time. This is a style that is fresh and charming and easy to maintain. This hairstyle suits summer and autumn because it'll keep you feeling light yet looking chic at the same time.
3. Lightened for dramatic effect
Changing your hair color is one way to really transform. Lightening your dark mane will change your appearance in ways you might never have expected. It's depending on how light you decide to go. Blonde might look great on you but expect to be in the salon frequently.
4. Braided beautifully
Braided hairstyles aren't just for prairie girls anymore. Braided styles are romantic and the epitome of femininity. A modernized braided look creates an elevated look while keeping strands out of your face, brilliant! It may take a lot of practice to get these styles. But if you enjoy the look, it'll be worth the effort!
5. Different bangs, different vibe
Soft, full curtain bangs provide a natural, soft elegance. We love that they shape the face in a very gentle, feminine way. Curtain bangs work especially well if you have straight Asian hair as they fall into place naturally. They also work well with all lengths, so try them any time you want to update your look.
6. Blonde and beachy
Chunky 2000s bleaching is making a bold comeback, and Asian women are embracing this trend. This particular style features a lob with fringe, blending bleach-blonde front sections with brunette locks. The look, bound to turn heads, combines face-framing layers and shoulder-length hair for a stunning, beachy vibe.
7. Sweet, sleek lob Asian hairstyle
Embrace the elegance of this medium-length asian hair style. Shoulder-length hair ends are neatly brushed inward on naturally dark hair. Achieve this mature, sleek look by blow-drying with a round brush. This great example of shorter hair without bangs adds a sophisticated touch, perfect for any setting.
Tame flyaways by incorporating a Blissy Silk Pillowcase into your nightly hair routine.
8. Bold, blunt bangs + bob
Bold blunt bangs will bring the whimsical drama. Blunt bangs can be styled to look high fashion and chic or playful and girly. Experiment with different lengths to see what suits you, you might be surprised by the results.
9. Tapered bob
The Tapered Bob is a standout among Asian hairstyles, perfect for adding volume to typically straight hair. This chic cut features a subtle tapering at the ends and slightly choppy layers. This lifts the roots and creates a fuller look. It’s an ideal choice for Asian women with fine or straight hair seeking a short style with impact.
Whether styled with a blow dry for a soft texture or spiced up with hair color, this bob is versatile and stylish.
10. Funky colors with matching brows
This bold look features hair dyed an orangey-red, perfectly paired with eyebrows to match. Ideal for the adventurous Asian girl, this style transforms traditional Asian hairstyles with vibrant hair color, adding an extra dimension of flair and fun.
Try this with any funky color of your choosing to add extra oomph and visual interest. From cherry red hair to lavender, vibrant colors are all the rage. Contrary to popular belief, not every Asian girl needs to have dark brown or black hair.
It's How You Care for Asian Hair that Matters
Although relatively straight hair is easy to care for, Asian hair fibers can still break and become brittle if not properly cared for. Pay especially close attention if you have chemically treated hair.
Asian hair can also be curly and frizzy
What works for one hair type may not work for another due to length, volume or texture. The same goes for products—what works for one person may not work for you.
Silk for hair and scalp care
Perhaps it is no coincidence that silk was first used in East Asia because silk is the only fabric that should be allowed to touch your hair. If having beautiful, healthy locks is important to you, make sure to invest in high-quality 100% mulberry silk pillowcases and silk scrunchies for sleep at night.
Protect your Asian hair while you sleep
Silk is the only fabric that helps hair retain it's natural sheen and moisture. It's also the only fabric that won't snag and break strands. So you'll be able to stop worrying about those pesky breaks from tight ponytails.
Maintaining beautiful bouncy, shiny Asian hair that is strong and resistant to breakage is extremely important. Please treat your locks and yourself with love and care.
