Fun And Easy Hairstyles To Do
As a professional hairstylist with years of experience, I have helped countless clients achieve their desired looks. Today, I am excited to share with you some of my favorite fun and easy hairstyles to try at home. Whether you are getting ready for a special event or simply want to switch up your everyday look, these hairstyles are sure to make a statement.
1. Messy Bun
The messy bun is a classic hairstyle that is perfect for both casual and formal occasions. To achieve this look, start by gathering your hair into a high ponytail and securing it with an elastic band. Then, twist the ponytail and wrap it around the base to create a bun. Secure the bun with bobby pins and pull out a few strands to create a messy, effortless look. This hairstyle is quick and easy to do, yet it adds a touch of elegance to any outfit.
2. Beach Waves
If you want to achieve that relaxed, beachy vibe, beach waves are the way to go. This hairstyle is perfect for those with medium to long hair. To create beach waves, start by applying a heat protectant spray to your hair. Then, use a curling wand or a flat iron to create loose curls. Once you have curled all your hair, run your fingers through the curls to loosen them and create a more natural look. Finish off with a spritz of sea salt spray for that authentic beachy texture.
3. Braided Crown
The braided crown is a romantic and feminine hairstyle that is perfect for weddings, proms, or any special occasion. To create this look, start by parting your hair in the middle and braiding two sections on each side. Once you have braided both sections, bring them over the crown of your head and secure them with bobby pins. Gently tug on the braids to loosen them and create a fuller, more voluminous look. This hairstyle is guaranteed to turn heads and make you feel like a princess.
4. Half-Up Half-Down
The half-up half-down hairstyle is a versatile and effortless look that works for any hair length. To achieve this style, simply gather the top section of your hair and secure it with a small elastic band or a decorative clip. Leave the rest of your hair down for a soft and romantic look. You can also add curls or waves to the bottom section of your hair for extra volume and texture. This hairstyle is perfect for both casual and formal occasions.
5. Fishtail Braid
The fishtail braid is a chic and trendy hairstyle that is surprisingly easy to do. Start by dividing your hair into two equal sections. Take a small strand of hair from the outside of the left section and cross it over to the right section. Repeat this process, alternating sides, until you reach the end of your hair. Secure the braid with an elastic band and gently pull on the strands to create a fuller, more textured look. The fishtail braid is a great option for those with long hair who want to add a touch of elegance to their look.
6. Top Knot
The top knot is a stylish and effortless hairstyle that is perfect for those days when you want to keep your hair out of your face. To create a top knot, start by gathering your hair into a high ponytail and securing it with an elastic band. Then, twist the ponytail and wrap it around the base to create a knot. Secure the knot with bobby pins and pull out a few strands to create a messy, undone look. This hairstyle is perfect for both casual and formal occasions and can be dressed up or down depending on your outfit.
