As some of you may know i'm not very high maintenance when it comes to my hair, in fact I rarely do a single thing to it other than wash it!
Recently i've noticed most days I am doing the same hairstyle and i'm really loving it! It's so easy and takes no time at all which are both a winner with me, I feel like it's almost 90s but maybe thats just me.
Messy waves with the top pulled back into a little pony tail. I feel it can be dressed up or dressed down- so versatile!
Now what you are all waiting for, how can you get this look?!
1. First of all, start off with wet/damp hair and part where you like. Note- the wetter the hair the longer this step will take. I like to leave my hair in a towel for 15 minutes and then air dry for another 20 minutes before the next step but will depend on how thick and long your hair is.
2. Seperate the hair into two sections at either side of your head and make two french plaits (there are plenty of tutorials online if you arent sure how to do these). I like to sleep on these overnight as they are completely dry by morning, you can also do these in the morning and use a hair dryer over the plaits but I feel the overnight method works just that bit better.
3. Once the plaits are completely dry you can slowly undo them leaving these gorgeous waves! If your hair doesnt hold waves/curls very well this is the time to hairspray! This is an optional step as my hair holds quite well and I don't need to include this step.
4. Final step! Take a small elastic and gather the top section (i'd say no lower than your temples) and tie into a pony tail and tighten! And we're finished! Another optional step is the back comb this section to create more volume if you'd like. For me back combing would only be if I was going out in the evening.
Second day curls also work! They are much looser but still cute non the less!
What's your go to hairstyle at the moment?
