Straight hair can be thought of as a little limiting as far as fancy styles go, but with the right style tricks and tools, you can make your hair feel completely new and exciting—basically, giving you a whole new hair vibe with a cut or color. So grab your flat iron and your hair-straightening creams and get to work with one of these not-at-all-boring straight hairstyles.

The way you style the ends of your hair can totally change the vibe. Whenever you’re not feeling your stick-straight hair look, try curling the ends under just slightly with a round brush and hair dryer.

Why is it when we think of straight hair, a middle part comes to mind? Straight hair can look great with this deep side part. Use a spritz of hairspray to keep your straight hair sleek and smooth.

Sometimes the littlest changes make all the difference. Take tucking one side of your hair behind your ear, for instance. Perfect compromise for when you want to show off your jewelry and your hairstyle at the same time.
