The variety of women's hairstyles today is simply amazing. But there are some types of styling that are always relevant, for example, "horns". We will talk about what this hairstyle is and how to make it on hair of different lengths.
Description
This variant of laying is familiar to many. In fact, the "horns" are bunches or half-beams, which are located on the top of the head - on the crown.
The number of beams on the head itself can be different (from 2 to 6), but the pair of classic “horns” are the most popular.
The main difference between such a package from the bunches of all varieties is its shape.
It is elongated and conical, in appearance completely imitating the usual small horns.
Who is going to?
Like any other hairstyle, this one has its own age limit. Of course, if desired, it can be done at any age. The only question is how appropriate it will look and what effect it will have on the perception of its owner by other people.
The best and most appropriate "horns" look at girls of preschool and school ages. They make them even more lovely and gentle, and most importantly, the hair does not interfere with the child at all. And the creation of such a package does not take much time and effort.
Not bad "horns" look and on young girls, especially if such a hairstyle is created for an informal pastime: friendly parties, corporate parties or even hikes. Laying here will help to stand out from the crowd, look unusual and stylish.
As for older women, then this hairstyle is not recommended. With the "horns" on their heads, they will look ridiculous and inappropriate in any situation. The only exception may be a theme party or carnival.
“Horns” on the head is, of course, a fashion trend of the coming year, but only a youth one, and this should be understood.
Hairstyles
There are several main varieties of such youth styling. They differ from each other in their appearance and location on the head.
In appearance
According to this criterion, the styling is also divided into several subspecies.
- Complete. In this case, absolutely all the hair on the head is twisted into the horns, but there are no free strands.
- Smooth. The hair is collected neatly, completely, and the styling itself is very smooth, without protruding hairs.
- Casual style In this case, the hairstyle itself looks as if it was made hastily, but in this carelessness both style and light romanticism are visible.
- With bangs or without bangs. The bangs can be left as simple as in the case of conventional styling, or they can be either braided into one of the horns or curled around it.
- With pigtails. There are two types here: pigtails are woven on the back of the head on the part or the “horns” themselves make their braids, and leave the rest of the hair as usual.
- Partial styling. This option involves leaving the hair on the back of the head in loose form, and the "horns" themselves are made on the crown.
At the same time, depending on the appearance, such styling may be suitable both for a friendly walk or any holiday, and for going to school or preschool.
Location and number
Everything is simple here: “horns” can be located on the crown, on the temporal zone or on the back of the head. The most popular is the hairstyle with the crown styling.
The number depends on the desire of the girl. A hairstyle with two “horns” is considered a classic, but in life there can be much more: from 2 to 6.
The choice (the number, type and location of their location) should be based not only on personal preferences, but also on the basis of the length, thickness of the hair, the purpose of creating the very style.
In form
On this basis, "horns" can also be of several types.
- High or low. It means their height. High ones look more youthful and mischievous, but low ones are almost a classic, and often this particular style is confused with ordinary tufts.
- Tight or loose. Tight "horns" - it is smoothly tightened, without separate knocked out strands and hairs. Free “horns” are those that, when walking or running, can sway from side to side, that is, they do not have a rigid fixation.
- Created from curls of hair or from braids. Such styling options are different in appearance and form. So, "horns" of braids always look more volumetric and elegant.
Even, it would seem, such a simple hairstyle, as "horns", has many varieties. This allows you to change the style of installation each time and always look fashionable, stylish and unusual. But most importantly - the creation of such an image does not take much time and effort, and also does not cause the need to purchase additional expensive accessories.
