How To Styling a Ballerina Bun

Steps :

1 : If your hair is straight, curl the ends with a curling iron. This prevents little hairs from poking out of your bun!
2 : Gather your hair into a ponytail on top of your head.
3 : Pull your hair through one last time, but only half way! Take the loop you’ve created and spread it out.
4 : Take the end of your ponytail and wrap it around the base of the bun.
5 : Secure with bobby pins.
6 : Finish with hair spray! See, that wasn’t so hard!

Chalked Crown Hair

Steps :

1 : Starting with a side part, french braid the side with more hair. Keep the french braid against your head until you've reached the ear, then continue the braid away from the head.
2 : Braid the other side in a loose braid starting at ear height (leave some hair down below the braid to hang over your ears).
3 : Pull the braid across the front of your head and pin it in to the french braid so that it is secure across your forehead like a head band (tuck the ends of the braid into the french braid to make it look like one continued braid around the head).
4 : Pull the french braid around the back of the head and pin it in to the opposite braid.
5 : Use different colours of Kevin Murphy Color Bugs or any hair chalk to add colour to the braided crown!

Mini Twists are a protective natural hairstyle that are created by using gel to create small twists. Mini Twists can be created by using a natural gel like flax seed gel. The gel protects the ends of the hair and gives the mini twists a smooth look.

Make an Old Hollywood Waves For Your Hair

Steps :

1 : Begin with dry hair parted to the side. Prep hair with a thermal protectant like Hot Off The Press by Paul Mitchell.

4 : With a comb right under each wave ridge, comb upwards to make the ridge more prominent.

Tucked Side Ponytail Hairstyle

How To Style :

Step 1 : Fit your hair extensions a little higher up than normal, then pull all of your hair over one shoulder and secure into a side ponytail with your bobble/elastic.
Step 2 : Once you have secured your ponytail tightly, you need to hold your bobble/elastic and pull this about 2” down the ponytail.
Step 3 : Using your hands, you now need to part the small section of hair above the bobble/elastic. Once you have parted the hair enough to have a clear gap, push the elastic up and into the hole! Now you have to make sure you pull all your hair through.
Step 4 : To finish off this tucked side pony hair tutorial, you simply need to pull the ends of your hair tightly which will push all the hair together neatly at the top of your pony. If your hair is a little shorter you may need a few bobby pins here to just tidy up the tuck.

Make a French-Style Side Braid

Steps :

1 : Start by separating a small section of hair from the bottom of the sweep of hair going across the back of your neck.
2 : Split this section of hair into three sections and begin braiding as usual. Grab one of the outer sections and cross it over to the middle, then grab the outer section on the opposite side and pull it to the middle.
3 : Continue braiding, add a section of loose hair from the hair sweeping over your other shoulder before you move it to the middle. By the time the (once-small) braid reaches the opposite side of your head, it should contain all your hair, not just the little section.
4 : When you reach the opposite ear, braid the rest of your hair like a normal braid.
5 : Secure the end of the braid with an elastic band, arrange any wisps of hair that are hanging out, and spray with hair spray if desired.
