With warm summer nights just around the corner, it feels like the right time to shop for floral dresses and try new hairstyles to suit the mood. If you need to give your creativity a boost, take a look at these very trending hair ideas that everyone can make – but only you will know how.
This braided half up half down hairstyle will make people wonder how on earth you can do criss-crossed Dutch braids. And you don’t even need to be able to do Dutch braids because… they are not!
Here’s what you need to do. Isolate two very clean rectangular sections on the top of your head. The top line should approximately hit the middle of your parting. Then make basic braids that are facing forward. Your best bet is to use some gel or cream to keep the braids neat and flyaway free. Also, braiding tightly but then pulling some strands will give the best outcome.
Next, make two neat ponytails just behind the braids. Create a gap in one of your braids, flip it over to the back and pull the opposite side ponytail through that gap. Repeat on the other side.
Does snatching all your hair back make you feel too bare and insecure? Leave some face-framing, like in this video, but maintain precise partings – that’s what can make or break your look.
For this hairstyle, make two ponytails on both sides of your parting. Then push the hair elastic down to loosen each of the ponytails; make a gap at the base of it and pull the ends through that opening. Next, you connect the ends of both ponytails and braid them together.
Simple and understated, this hairstyle would look great paired with a spring dress or top.
If you want something quick but looking intricate, this ultimately gorgeous ponytail is the one to have on your list. You won’t believe how easy this technique is considering how good it looks.
All you need to do is make three ponytails at the back and weave them together.
Let’s look at the technique in more detail to make sure you get just as glorious results as in the video. To achieve that twisted finish, you must pull each of the two side ponytails through the base. Then loosen them up, so that both the right and the left ponytails can reach over the middle to get the mid-section through them.
For the best results, use some texturizing spray. And if you give your hair a soft bend with a straightening iron, your ponytail will look totally insane.
Combining different braiding and twisting techniques is what makes your hairstyle unique and shows off your creative flair. Try and tweak these tricks and invent your own perfect hair ‘do!
