Classic Trendsetting Hairstyle

Pink PlumeriaSo this is the last of the 3 Do it Yourself Hairstyles for the season.  I thought pretty hard on this one because I wanted you to trust in yourself and feel good about something new and trendy but also feel confident with a hairstyle that we all wear perhaps too often out of sheer convenience. Well, it’s the good old ponytail with the trendy braid.  Wear it high, at the top of the crown, in the middle back of the head or low at the nape of the neck.  Whichever you choose,  for whatever occasion, it’s yours…now let’s make it trendy, fun and new.  First, make a horizontal part down each side of the head, going downwards, behind the ear. Braid or french braid each strand along side the face and rubberband the ends.  Secondly,  grab the rest of the hair and ponytail it high, medium or low behind the head, to your preference.  Lastly, grab both braids on each side of your face and wrap each braid around the ponytail’s rubberband and pin to secure the ends.  So you short haired girls are probably frowning by now.  Well, don’t worry, this is what you can do if you have a bob length haircut…make the 2 braids on each side of your face keeping the braid close to the face, rubberband both braided ends and tuck the braid behind the ear and pin it underneath the hair.
