Halloween Hairstyles

     So, Halloween is coming up and you may have some costumes you want to do a hairstyle for. There are so many choices of what you can be, and what you can do with your hair. One good one is a fairy. What you would do for a hairstyle for a fairy is start by curling it. Then, put it in a ponytail in the middle of your head. Bobby pin the hair from the ponytail all around your head. To add extra pizazz, spray sparkles in it, and it will look great

      I noticed that a lot of people tend to be zombies every year. Well, a good hairstyle for zombies is the messy look. Basically what you do is you can leave it down or put it in a messy ponytail in a weird spot on your head. You might want it to look gray, because you have been dead and in the ground for a while, so you can get some gray hairspray. After its ready, make it as messy as possible and a good way to do that is to tease it. it makes it look frizzy and messy! Its a great way to male your costume look real.

Easy hairstyles

     Some days, You just need an easy hairstyle to do in less than five minutes. There are a bunch! One is the ponytail. To make it look good you should brush it a lot and make sure there are no bumps. You could also do a braid on the side or the back. You could do an easy bun by twisting the hair and wrapping it up. Just about everything will look good if your hair is neat and clean! Remember to wash and condition your hair almost every day! Ponytails always look good!

Braided Headband

This week I am going to talk about making a cute braid headband. It isn't a French braid, but it still holds the hair back. It is good if you have crazy bangs and want to keep them back. This hairstyle can be for working out and even for an everyday, casual look. It can work with your hair down or in a ponytail or bun or just about anything that won't interfere with the braid.

      You will want to start off by taking a small section of the hair by the ear and hold it upwards. Split the section of hair into three smaller, equal sections. Keep braiding up.  Once you get to the end, put a small rubber band around the end. It might look weird and stick out but once you pin it to the other side it will work. Now, you want to push your bangs back and other hair. Pin it to the other side under other hair. Finish it off by doing whatever you want with it, like putting it in a bun. Voila! You are done.

Donut bun

Donut bun

To do a donut bun, you will need a brush, hair ties, and a donut bun maker. First, you will need to brush your hair thoroughly. Make sure there aren't any tangles. Put it up into a ponytail wherever you want your bun. It will eventually look like a donut. This style is great for a formal event or any regular day. Once you put it up, put your bun maker over the ponytail. Slide it to the top. Start rolling it. It will look messy at first, but keep going. If it doesn't work at first try again. Once you are done, put a hair tie around it. If there are any stray hairs, bobby pin them up. You can accessorize it with a bow or flower. This is a donut bun maker.

Fishtail braid

Fishtail braid

     A fishtail braid is just a really cool way of doing a braid. It looks like a fishtail (get it?). One way to explain is to say it is transferring small pieces of hair from one side to another. It may sound complicated, but it isn't. What you need for this is a hair tie and a brush. Before you start you should brush your hair thoroughly. There shouldn't be any tangles at all, or else it will take longer and not look as good. This hairstyle is for past shoulder length hair. You can wear it like a normal braid, in the back, on the side, or even pigtails. Divide your hair into two even sections. Take one small piece of hair from one side and bring it to the other. Take a piece of hair from the other side and bring it to the opposite side. Repeat until you get where you want it to be. Here is an awesome video explaining how to do it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkV4ptjPf3M

     This hairstyle is wonderful for most occasions. It can be very casual. It also can look very nice if its an updo. A hard trick for this is a french fishtail braid. It is like a french braid, but in fishtail. It looks really good messy. It is a twist on the classic braid. This can be used as a work hairstyle or a working out hairstyle. for small girls, it looks really good as pigtails. I usually do it to the side. To dress it up you can add a flower or bow.
