"  One of our highlight from last night&amp;#039;s BRIT Awards was the hair. Far from shy and retiring, the celebs went for stand-out styles that cement the tress trends for the season ahead. Celebrity hairdresser Jamie Stevens has given us his tips on how to achieve the looks yourself. No red carpet required.  Cartoon hair Seen on: Lily Allen, Katy Perry The look: Ultra sleek texture, mega shine and blunt bangs. Crazy colours, optional.  The how-to: Jamie says &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s all in the prep, so use a smoothing shampoo and conditioner. Arm yourself with a good heat protective spray before blow-drying smooth and using straightening irons to create a super sleek finish \u2013 the thinner the section you take, the smoother the result. Gloss the hair with a little serum to add a super shiny finish.&amp;quot; The products: Matrix Design Pulse Iron In heat protection spray and Mix In Shine serum. ghd Eclipse stylers.  Big volume curls Seen on: Lorde, Ella Eyre The look: Gutsy curly hair blow-dried with volume and bounce, the bigger, the better. Start the spin cycle. The how-to: Jamie says: &amp;quot;Only use conditioner through mid-lengths and ends to avoid weighing the hair down at the roots and to create more thickness and vavoom, blow-dry using a volumising mousse. Plump out your hair by blow-drying hair upside down until 80% dry, concentrating on the roots to create body and when styling fix your hair whilst hot and leave it to cool before shaking out to make your style last twice as long. Avoid anything too oily that will make hair limp and instead opt for mattifying products, such as a dry shampoo and long-lasting hairspray. The products: Matrix Design Pulse Go Big Mousse, Clean Remix dry shampoo, Hair Lock hairspray  Tousled texture Seen on: Kylie, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley The look: Undone twirls with a modern matte texture to strike the balance between sassy and rocky. The desired effect is effortless.  The how-to: Jamie says &amp;quot;After blow-drying with a texture cream, curl the hair with wide barreled tongs as these will add body without it looking over-styled. Tip the head upside down and give it a good shake to break up any curls and add in a little texture dust to the roots if you want added volume. Finish off with a hairspray to give more of a matte feel for on-trend texture. The products: Matrix Design Pulse Loosely Defined texture cream, Mega Dust and Vavoom Freezing Spray.
