Valentine’s Day Date Night Hairstyles Your Clients Will Love

6 Date Night Hairstyles for Valentine’s Day

Love is definitely in the hair this Valentine’s Day, with a range of styles from whimsical waves to sleek, glossy finishes. Being the most romantic time of the year, there’s no better time to help your clients fall in love with a new romantic hairstyle they can wear on their next date night.

Inspired by the dramatic romance of Wuthering Heights and the red-carpet looks of icon Margot Robbie, this year’s Valentine’s styles are all about soft textures, ultra-feminine details, and of course, keeping things effortless. If your clients are heading out for a date night or have plans for Galentine’s, these trending styles are perfect to recreate in the salon.

The Wuthering Heights Wave Half-Up French Twist

It’s whimsical, romantic and extremely ethereal. This half-up, half-down look is a new Valentine’s favourite. Inspired by Margot Robbie’s Wuthering Heights press tour look, the ‘Wuthering Wave’ combines tight mermaid waves with a soft French twist for an ultra-feminine finish.

Create tight, romantic waves using a waving tool - we recommend the Alfa Italia Multi-Wave styler - for that dreamy, mermaid texture. Take the top section of hair and twist inwards into a loose French twist, pinning gently into place. The key to this look is the softness, as the messier and more undone it is, the more romantic and modern it becomes.

Boho Dutch Braid with Mermaid Waves

For clients who love detail and texture, the boho-inspired Dutch braid is the perfect Valentine’s choice. Keeping the mermaid waves as a base, add a half-head Dutch braid to create structure and dimension. This inside-out braid creates a raised, 3D effect that looks intricate and romantic while still feeling soft and wearable. It’s ideal for clients who want something a little different that still feels feminine and on theme! It’s whimsical texture whilst still giving the look texture.

Double Dutch

If one braid isn’t enough, double it! This double Dutch braid look, again seen on Margot Robbie in ‘Wuthering Heights’,  blends romantic waves with some playful detailing.

Simply part the hair and create two Dutch braids that run from the front of the face through the full length of the hair, tying together at the ends. Paired with soft mermaid waves, this look balances structure and softness perfectly.

Loose Glam Date-Night Curls

Loose glam curls are a timeless Valentine’s favourite for a reason. They’re soft, bouncy and effortlessly glamorous, which suits almost every client on every date night.

Taking a medium-barrel curling wand, curl small sections away from the face, allowing them to cool before brushing through gently. Finish with a light hairspray and brush out for that soft, effortless yet glamorous feel. The results give movement with shine, looking polished but never overdone.

Half-Up Glam Twist

For clients who love the glamorous waves but want something a little more extra, a half-up twisted detail adds the perfect amount of sophistication.

Starting with loose waves, take the top section of hair back, tie with an invisible band, and twist gently. Secure with some grips and wrap a small piece of hair around the section to conceal the band and grips. This will give the perfect elevated finish to the look! This simple addition transforms the classic, glamorous wave look into a true date-night style with minimal extra effort.

Sleek & Glossy Flicked Blowout

Not every Valentine’s look needs braids or waves; keeping it super simple is the key to a gorgeous date night look. For clients who love a sleek, smooth and shiny finish, the Flicked Out Blowout is a romantic classic. To get this look, create volume and shine through a smooth blow-dry, then use a round brush or straighteners to flick the ends outwards for that feminine finish.  The result is glossy, bouncy and effortlessly romantic! What’s not to love?
