Currently, there are several trends in hairstyles, but this does not mean that you can not do something else, completely unique and author. This will only emphasize your individuality.

Hairstyle plays a huge role in the formation of the image. Even the perfect makeup and well-chosen suit will not look if you do not pay enough attention to your own hair. Imagine the main fashion trends that exist at the moment.

They have long been firmly established in the life of modern beauties. Their huge plus is that they are suitable for blondes or brown-haired women and brunettes. Owners of dark hair, they give mystery, and light curls look very romantic.

There are many ways to bring this hairstyle to life. In detail about the technology of creation, we will talk a little below. Here we would like to note that every girl must try to make this beauty.

If in the 90s of the last century, elastic smooth curls curled into a curling tape were in fashion, today the situation has changed. In the trend of loose curls. When looking at them, it seems that the hairstyle has already slightly dismissed. Much attention is paid and basal volume. Without it, the curls would not look so impressive.

Remember the Disney princesses: the artists of many of them rewarded them with perfect curls. But after all, no one would even think that they were sitting for hours and winding them up. Everything looks as if nature itself has endowed them with such wealth. That modern beauty strive to achieve the same effect.

One of the main trends, which is not the first year kept in the top. If earlier pigtails were considered exclusively as schoolgirls' hairstyle, today women and girls can freely braid them in the office, and even with an evening outfit. The thing is, how exactly do you realize the idea with the braids?

There are many types of weaving, as well as hairstyles based on them. With the help of fixing means and stealth, you can create a real masterpiece, and you can have a beautiful everyday hairstyle. We give the main types of braids, relevant in our time.

She looks very unusual. The thing is that with a special method of weaving, it seems to be turned to us on the other side. Try it yourself to make a woven French braid (or several). To do this, you just need to understand that strands when weaving are stacked not at the top, but at the bottom.

Special chic to this type of braid adds their volume. It is created artificially. In the process, it is necessary to slightly stretch the strands so that they do not lie tightly to each other, but create the appearance of a thick fluffy braid. There are a lot of variations of hairstyles with this type of weaving. You can braid one big or two smaller pigtails.

Another option would be weaving on one side only and forming a bump or basket of hair at the back of the head.

Weaving method, familiar to all from childhood. Its main advantage is the stability of hairstyles. We'll have to spend a little more time on the weaving itself, but the laying will last all day without any problems. As for the variations, they are no less than the previous version.

It looks interesting option spikelet braided on one side. In this case, the spit can move from one side of the head to the other. Or the second side can be left unspotted. The thin spikelets, made from a small strand of hair, can serve as a full-fledged decoration or accent for hairstyles. They will make a beautiful bunch in a circle or intertwined with a volume bump, creating a beautiful pattern of hair on the head.

We all remember the tightly tightened bumps on the ballerina’s head. But the latest trends call for abandoning such ideal smoothness in hairstyles. In the fashion of free options. It's okay if some hairs are knocked out. This will give the image of naturalness and romance. Preferring this option, do not strive to make your hair licked. On the contrary, first of all create volume from the roots, and then make a lump.

The peculiarity of the bumps is that Depending on the configuration and selected accessories, you can adapt it for sports and for an evening dress.

The described trends do not carry something radically new. These hairstyles are known to all for a long time. But not many dare to bring them to life even on a special occasion.In many ways, this is due to the fact that the girls simply do not know how to independently make the original hairstyle. Below we give a detailed scheme of creating a particular hairstyle. Boldly take them into service, surprise others with new images every day.

In the morning there is catastrophically little time to build complex multi-stage hairstyles on your head. But you always want to look stylish and interesting. Let's see what can be done in a short time on your own hair.

Even if you have just washed and dried your hair - this does not guarantee the appearance of a fantastic volume that the shampoo manufacturers promise us. In most cases, you have to create it artificially.

Dry hair can be different. With one approach, you get just strands hanging down, which will not decorate you in the least. In the other case, the volume will appear on the head, and the strands will lie one to one. The easiest way to achieve this effect is to dry your hair upside down.

Bend down, take a hair dryer and start to dry the entire mass of hair, moving from one edge to another. The direction of the air stream should be strictly from top to bottom. That is, you start to dry hair from the roots, moving down. This approach provides a more careful attitude to the hair.

When the hair is dry, straighten and fold the hair in the direction you want, form a parting.

Now you need to take care of the ends. If they are a little loose, take the brush and with the hair dryer once again walk through the desired areas. By wrapping the comb inward, you will achieve a slight rounding at the ends. So the hairstyle will look complete.

Flat irons and tongs with a wide corrugation nozzle are great for creating small waves. But all is not well formed in situations where you need to make a volume from the roots.

Today, you can find special tongs with a narrow plate. It will be only 2 or 3 waves. They are very convenient to use. It is necessary only to separate the strand, clamp between the plates for a few seconds and release. You will get a good volume that will last a very long time. It will not be visible any creases and waves.

Masters very often choose this method. In the process of creating, you can independently adjust the resulting volume. In addition, there will not require any additional funds, except for a thin comb. To create a steady pile comb the entire mass of hair. Separate the top and secure it to the top of the head with a clip. To get an impressive amount, you will need to work out all the strands.

We will move upwards. Separate the thin width of the strand, one hand pull it away perpendicular to the head. Now make a sharp hairbrush jerky movements from the middle of the length to the roots. As a result of this manipulation, the hair at the roots will be slightly tangled and tousled.

Moving up, lay one on top of another. Do not try to smooth or unravel them.

When all the hair will be treated in this way (on both sides and back), you will see that the hair has become very fluffy and voluminous. To give her an aesthetic look will help hair brush with bristles (it is better if it is natural). Smooth a little styling from the top, paying particular attention to the hair along the parting.

In other cases, it is enough to give an even look to the strands along the parting.

Yes, the curlers are not just to create naughty curls. If you take the option with a large diameter, then there will be no hint of curls, but a good amount is provided to you. The advantage of this method is that when you wake up, you can put a little foam on your hair, wind it up (it only takes a few minutes) and go about your business. Before leaving you need to remove the curlers and go on the road.

Girls with straight hair in different ways are trying to make beautiful curls. While the owners of cute curls, on the contrary, try to make them perfectly smooth and even. This problem exists and will always exist. However, there are many ways to solve such problems, both the first and second.

Not all girls are ready every morning to stand at the mirror for a long time and twirl the curls. But this is not at all necessary. There are methods to achieve the desired result, spending a minimum of time and effort.

This method appeared relatively recently, but already managed to win the hearts of fashionistas. With it, you can get very natural half-curls that are at the peak of popularity today.

Apply to clean hair styling products (mousse, foam or lotion). Separate the strand and clamp it between the plates ironing near the roots. Now you need to rotate the iron 180 degrees. Keep it parallel to the floor. In this position, lower the device to the end of the strand. Use your hands to help the curl to lie down correctly and fix it with varnish.

This method is known to all. But It is worth noting that today curling has become much more convenient and safer for hair. Special coatings do not burn hair, and the variety of shapes and sizes of the device allows you to find your ideal option. If you have not yet decided on the choice, then we advise you to look at the conical curling. Its diameter decreases towards the end. This allows you to create curls of different sizes. It is necessary only to wind the strand on one or another part of the curling itself. It makes no sense to describe in detail the process of twisting strands on curling, as this process is known to all.

Even the most ordinary styling can be transformed with accessories. The stores offer a wide selection of jewelry for our hair: headbands, headbands, hairpins, combs, invisible with rhinestones, rubber bands, shawls and much more.

Bright massive jewelry with stones, rhinestones and beads are suitable for an evening out.

The use of various accessories in the hair is limited only by your imagination. But make sure that they look appropriate. After all, even the most beautiful tiara will be absolutely superfluous if you are going to a business meeting. It is necessary to take into account your own hair color. So, on dark ringlets black ornaments will be hardly noticeable.

Loose and laid hair is beautiful, but not always convenient. That is why many women and girls prefer to collect them in various ways.This allows you not to be distracted by the hairstyle during the day, straightening the strands that constantly fall on your face.

One of the most favorite hairstyles. Many people think that it is very easy to make a beautiful tail - licked hair back, gathered it with an elastic band and it is ready. Adhering to this approach, you risk only worsen your appearance. Beauties who go out onto the red carpet with the usual “horse” or high tail pay special attention to it.

We will consider the main stages of creating an elegant tail.

1. Dry the hair, giving it volume. How to do this, we talked a little higher.
2. Comb the hair on the center of the head back.
3. Moving from the forehead, separate one after another strand and do a little bouffant.
4. On the sides, comb the hair towards the back of the head.
5. Take the gum (you can also use the crab) and form the tail. Ensure that the volume is maintained. If necessary, slightly straighten the upper strands with your hands or a comb-spoke.

This is the simplest version of the tail, but because of this, it never ceases to be interesting. Pigtails will help to diversify the hairstyle. They can be braided from the forehead towards the back of the head, or they can be formed into a kind of bezel framing the forehead and one side.

Hairstyle with two tails is childish. After all, everyone remembers those mischievous two tails of little girls who jump so merrily with active movements. If you want to add a little bit of playfulness to your look, then make two tails.

Split the hair in a straight longitudinal parting. The tails will have to be formed quite low in the back of the head. It is important to ensure that the volume on both sides of the head is maintained. This option will be very comfortable to wear and give the image the desired playfulness and spontaneity.

There are a lot of variations. Hairstyles with loose hair look always relevant and elegant. Having reviewed the detailed instructions for creating them, presented below, you will understand that there is nothing complicated here.

Comb your hair and divide into three equal parts. On the central part, make a small bouffant and fasten a thin elastic band on the back of the head. From the resulting tail braid a pigtail and put on one more thin elastic band. The hair left on the sides also weave into braids, but without rubber bands at the base. Pigtails should begin at a free length of hair. Although if you wish, you can make weaving along the temples.

We twist the central braid with the shell at the base and fix it with stealth. Take the braid on one side and wrap it around this shell. We perform the same manipulation with another scythe.

Then on the central part you do not need to make a braid, but braid this accessory. It is worn over the elastic band, and the hair from the tail is distributed in a circle and fixed by another small elastic band on top. In the absence of accessories, this hairstyle will look modest and elegant, but it is worth adding a bright hairpin or comb and it will instantly turn into an evening version.

We brush a little hair on the central part of the head, form the tail. It should not be placed too low. Finger split hair into two parts. This must be done above the rubber band to form a hole. We catch our tail and drag it inside the resulting hole. We pull up and weave a spit cone from the tail. To give the hair dynamic and volume, slightly loosen the strands in the braid, pulling them toward you.

There comes the final part of the formation of the beam. We lift the scythe up, the end of the refuel to the same place where the tail itself was passed. We fasten invisible. Once again we correct the strands in the spit, to lay nice and smooth, but not very tight.

This hairstyle refers to retrostyle, but does not lose its relevance. Make it very easy. Pre-giving volume to the hair, they will need to be slightly screwed. Use for this curling iron or iron.

Next, do the tail at the back. When you last pass it through the gum, leave the tip tucked into it. That is, you just need not fully pull out the tail. The ends of the hair should be on top. Then we take them, set aside a little, twist one or two turns around us (as in the formation of a harness) and lay around the elastic. The tip is hidden under the base of the tail and secure with a rubber band. Straighten our shell of hair, fix it with varnish.

Variants of hairstyle with the help of braids countless. But it makes no sense to list them all. Knowing the basic models, you can make your own unique author's version or give preference to the classics.

The variations are as follows.

• Basket. To perform the hairstyle, it will be necessary to wind up the hair a little beforehand in order to get air curls. Next, moving from the forehead, we begin to weave braids in one and the other direction. On the back of the head both braids connect (one on one). We hide the tips under another pigtail, fasten with pins or stealth.

• Wreath. To begin to weave the braid in this case should be from one of the temples. Spread the hair so that it falls over the entire circumference of the head from one central point. Now you can weave braid, moving along the circle. Hide the end of the spit into the base of the spit and secure it with an invisible one. This braid is both an independent hairstyle and decoration. For the festive option, you can weave into it beautiful ribbons or other accessories. Prefer reverse weaving. This will create the illusion that the braid lies on top of the head.

• Waterfall. Very feminine and gentle hairstyle. In order that the locks lay as it should, pre-treat the hair with foam or mousse. Then you need to create small curls. You can not wrap all the hair, and process only the ends. Separate the hair into one side. Begin to weave a braid from the forehead (the beginning of the part of the head where most of the hair is located). When you get to the temple, start to release one of the three strands down. Instead, it will be necessary to pick up another strand, not yet woven into the braid. After reaching the other temple, fasten the end of the braid with an elastic band.

One of the options for weaving are harnesses. With them you can repeat all the same hairstyles as with braids. They differ in the method of laying strands. The harness looks like a rope, not a classic braid. The easiest way is to simply twist 2 strands between each other, moving in the right direction.

But a little practice, even an inexperienced fashionista will be able to surprise everyone with a beautiful hairstyle with unusual braids.

If you want to show all the beauty of your hair, then you should choose hairstyles with loose hair. They are not as small as it may seem. On how to create an actual hairstyle, called "curls", we have already sorted out above, so let's talk about other popular options.

It is only necessary to shift the usual parting to one side or the other, as a different image is obtained.This should be done at the stage of drying hair, so that they lay in the right direction. And it is also possible to refuse a parting at all. An excellent example of a part-free hairstyle is a retrostyle hairstyle with a rim or bandage.

1. Comb your hair and wind a little on the curling iron or iron.
2. Comb your hair back. Starting from the forehead, separate one by one, make bouffant.
3. When you reach the head, flip all the hair back. To give your hair a neat look, use a hair brush.
4. Sprinkle with varnish. Dress the headband so that all the hair is under it. You should not have it close to the growth line. Let some of the hair be visible near the forehead.
5. If necessary, correct the strands behind the bandage.

In addition, you can easily comb the entire mass of hair in one direction or the other.

Besides, You can combine it with weaving. In this case, the braid is woven on the side where the smaller part of the hair remains, and goes to the back of the head. There it can be hidden under loose strands and secured invisible.

It seems there is nothing easier than to make simple straight strands. Indeed, in most cases it is enough to dry the hair with a hair dryer. In fact, it turns out that the strands hang sadly and do not decorate their owner at all.

To make the hair look like in a shampoo ad or on the cover of a glossy magazine, you have to make an effort.

1. Wash your head and rinse with a balm (you can also make a mask). Apply a heat-proof spray to the strands and start to dry with a hairdryer. To do this, arm yourself with a brush and pull out each strand. And do not pull them down - strand should be directed perpendicular to the head.
2. If the desired smoothness and evenness could not be achieved, then additionally walk on them with a flat iron.
3. To strengthen the brilliance and structure strands will help specialized tools. If you often do just such a set, then you should think about their purchase.

Above, we brought a lot of options for women's hairstyles on the average length of hair. Many of them can be easily transformed into evening wear, simply by adding ornaments in the form of hairpins with stones, scallops with rhinestones and tiaras. For example, look at how a regular volume bump with an additional decoration looks festive.

As for the chic curls, they look great in any context. If you don’t have a strict dress code at work, then you can come to work with such a hairstyle, and in the evening you can go to a solemn event.

The same rule applies to straight loose hair. Remember how many times you saw beauties on the red carpet with this simple and at the same time luxurious hairstyle. In this case, the hairstyle is fully adapted to the attire of its owner.
