Summer Updos For You

We are rapidly approaching the hottest part of the season, and I don’t know about you, but I need my hair OFF MY NECK.
Lucky for us, summer updos are gracing the pages of every major magazine. Take Allure for example:

Now, I’m a little bobby-pin challenged, but the beauty of current summer updos is that a messy, imperfect look is the ultimate goal. Long gone are the days of stiff, hair-sprayed helmet heads. (Thank God.)
As Orlando Pita mentioned in the above piece:
Perfect updo = Matronly
Messy updo = Soft and feminine
Here are three fail-proof summer updos that are absolutely fun and fresh.
What you need:
Bobby pins (if bobby pins aren’t your thing, try these tiny jaw clips)
A brush (to smooth out any tangles, although we didn’t use one)
The first video is a modern side bun.

When placing the bobby pins, be sure to use the flat side of the pin against your scalp and DON’T TRY TO GRAB TOO MUCH HAIR WITH THE PIN. That’s the common mistake many (um, ME) seem to make - just push the pin into the hair, grabbing a little bit of hair at a time. For thick hair, you will need to use many bobby pins. (Or try the mini-claws shown above. Just make sure that the claws are well hidden.)
If you have thick hair, try creating two side buns on top of one another.

Wedding Hairstyles -- Loose Messy Updo

Brides do not have to have a bundled chignon and this updo styled with unrestrained tresses offers a optional selection for different personalities and really brings the face to the forefront.

Updos are very favorable for brides but the messy updo is not used enough. This beautiful wedding hairstyle combines brilliant facial framing in the front and loose, pinned tresses at the back and looks just as good as any bun.


Step 1.
Start by spraying a styling product throughout damp hair and use a round bristle brush and blow dryer to dry sections of the hair. Use the brush to add the light curls to the tresses. For women who find it tough to add the light curls, small rollers can be used.

Step 2.
Next tease the hair at the crown and create the slightly-off center part. Brush the hair back towards the crown with a little lift and separate the two strands on the sides of the face for great facial framing. Brush the strands away from the face. Some gel can be applied to the ends to give increased definition.

Step 3. Pinning the Hair
Brush the hair back and collect slightly below the crown and pin in different places closer to the roots. Pull the ends into different sections and tousle around for a messy look. Finish off with a light spritz of hairspray.
