The Boho Up-do

May 15, 2013

In preparation for warm weather it only seems appropriate to showcase the perfect boho up-do for that effortless summer look. Try this boho up-do!

1. The first step is to choose your headband, preferably one that matches your outfit of course!
2. Next, place the headband around the crown of your head. I like to secure my headband with bobbie pins so that I can ensure this hairstyle will stay in place all day.
3. As for the hard part, start off by taking a front section, loosely twisting it and tucking it into the back of the headband.
4. Repeat this step on the other side.
5. Next, grab a second section and tuck it into the back of the headband as well. Feel free to bobby pin this in place as well so it is secure. Again, repeat this step on the other side.
6. You are then left with one pony tail looking section in the back. Since I have long hair, I am going to start by folding this section in half once, then in half again and tuck it into the headband.
7. Of course I used my trusty bobby pins for this step too! Lastly, if you have any loose or fallen pieces of hair you can leave them as is, or curl them for more of a beach-y look!
