Low beam: types, creation and decoration

Sometimes simple, at first glance, hairstyle can change so much that it can be safely attributed to the masterpieces of hairdressing. This article will focus on the low beam. In the skillful hands of the master, the hair collected on the back of the head takes on unusual shapes and is complemented by a variety of ornaments. This universal hairstyle has many varieties that are suitable for a particular style. We learn what options for low beams exist, and how to make them yourself.

With this method of styling, hair is collected at the back of the head, while in front can remain curls, beautifully framing the face. Many people think that the beam has only one type - “bun”. In fact, this is not the case; with the help of the traditional, airy, elegant, or careless version of the bunch, girls look stylish in different ways.

This hairstyle is considered to be one of the most ancient, because it was popular in ancient times. In ancient Greece, women collected hair at the back of their heads, which made their face more open and allowed them to demonstrate a graceful neck. You can see a similar hairstyle on the statues of Hera and Aphrodite revered by the Greeks.

Since Rococo times, instructions for ladies have come down to us, how to make a knot out of hair, decorated with a velvet bag, and in the era of classicism, hairstyles with rollers made of hair and locks of face were popular. In the Land of the Rising Sun, beams were worn by both women and men, and the ladies often made two such buns on the sides.

As for our days, the fashion for an understated beam returned in the 50s of the XX century. Thus, French celebrities began to collect hair, after which all the other ladies began to imitate them: from housewives to business women. Now the beam has become one of the most popular hairstyles, because we collect hair in this way and when we do household chores, and when we go to work in the office, and sometimes we do it for solemn occasions - it is enough to complicate the classic version and decorate it with spectacular accessories.

The low appearance of these hairstyles is considered more versatile than high. The latter may be out of place on the head of very tall girls, as it adds height. And creative "careless" high bunches are not very suitable for small ladies. And also with them you need to be careful women with imperfect neck. It is quite another thing - a low kind of beam. Each woman can find her among the variety of models, which will emphasize her advantages and distract attention from shortcomings.

Paradoxically, the beam on the back of the head is contraindicated only for women in age.

Let us consider step by step various schemes for creating a beam. Among them are both more complex and lighter models.

Making a bundle on a short-length hair is somewhat more complicated, so you will need more hairdressing accessories. It is a gum, short studs and stealth, a gum “donut” and a volume gum from foam material.

Before you take up this hairstyle, you need to make sure that the length of your hair reaches at least to the middle of the neck. They need to be collected on the back of the head, so that you get a tail with at least a palm length. Otherwise, even the various accessories for hairstyles will not help you. For larger volume, pre-wash hair and dry it. If necessary, apply a little strong fixation foam before you blow-dry your hair.

Step-by-step instruction:

• make a tail in the neck;
• stick it in the "bagel";
• cut your hair in half and wrap the bagel;
• Wear a tight elastic band over the received beam and straighten your hair so that it does not look out;
• grab hair studs so that it does not crumble.

Medium hair means shoulder length. To create a simple hairstyle from them, proceed as follows:

• Take the upper part of the hair and divide it in half in half;
• wind all the strands inside so that the curls are the same on both sides;
• collect hair with a rubber band, and then push the hair through it again, without pulling it out to the end;
• The resulting bundle is beautifully laid out and pinned with pins.

We offer you another popular version of this hairstyle. It is suitable for special occasions.

• Divide the hair into three parts.
• Curls on temples pokolite barrettes on the sides, so as not to interfere.
• From the back of the hair, collect the tail, send it upwards from the bottom and fix it with invisible hair.
• Bend the ends of the resulting volumetric tail inwards and pin out the pins. With the help of side curls, complete the design by curling out and attaching hairstyles to the base.

With sufficient length, even such a simple version will look volumetric and interesting.

There are only two stages of its creation:

• make a low tail and tie it with a rubber band;
• coil your hair in a circle so that they are all involved, and pin up the pins.

You can not use the gum. To do this, you need to take all the hair, twist it with a braid and, turning it clockwise, make a “bun”. You can pin it up with pins, hairpins, and ordinary pencil.

The solemn version of the hairstyle at the back of the head fits for holidays and family celebrations.

• Apply mousse to all hair and make waves, curling them on the curling.
• Make a loose, non-tail.
• Pull out a few curled strands and wind around the rubber band, pin it up. Then remove more curls and repeat the steps until the hair runs out.
• Spray your hair with lacquer.

Consider what else unusual bunches can be made of hair, and how to do them correctly.

You can diversify the well-known hairstyle with the help of ordinary or French braids, spikelet. Bundles with weaving look good in combination with rims or fabric bandages. These accessories add even more charm to the face.

• Make an ordinary tail. Divide it into two unequal parts.
• Make the classic bundle for the most part, and braid the braid for a small one.
• Wrap the pigtail around the resulting “ghoul” and fix the tip.

Today, brides are increasingly choosing laconic images, while gloves, fur coats and fluffy dresses are a thing of the past. The same thing happens with wedding hairstyles. Instead of a pile of boucle, girls choose simple smooth bunches, decorating them to their liking. We will consider a complicated version of the wedding beam with “Korimbos” pile:

• Make a tail and secure with a thin rubber band.
• Take the hair above the elastic band and divide it slightly to make a hole.
• Thread the tail into it.
• Stir the remaining curls and pass again without making the “knot” too tight.
• Straighten your hair a little to make it more airy, and decorate with beautiful hairpins, for example, in the form of flowers.

Very beautiful hairstyle, which can also do it yourself:

• divide the hair into two parts horizontal parting;
• make a tail from the bottom;
• from the upper curls, separate the thin strand and braid them in a pigtail, and wind the rest around the bundle and slaughter it;
• weave the weave all over the head to get the bezel, and attach the invisible hairpin.
