1. Step 1: Begin with clean, dry hair in its natural texture and part your hair the way that you want it for the hairstyle.
2. Steps 2 & 3: Take a 2-3 inch section from the front of your hair and braid it.
3. Step 4: Wrap the braid to the back of your head and pin in place.
4. Steps 5 & 6: Do the same thing to the other side of your hair.
5. Steps 7 & 8: Pull all of your hair to one side and begin fishtail braiding.
6. Step 9: Secure the end of the braid with an elastic and voila!

Step 1: Begin with clean, dry hair in whatever texture you want it for the hairstyle. I kept my hair in its natural texture and to make the look more messy and bohemian I also teased it a bit.

Step 2: Take about a 3 inch section from the middle of one side of your head.

Steps 3 and 4: Braid the section that we just grabbed and secure with an elastic at the end.

Steps 5 and 6: Repeat the same process on the other side.

Steps 7 and 8: Place your index finger on the inside of the braid and pull it across your forehead to the other side. Placing your index finger here will help keep the braid flat and get rid of any ugly bumps that can occur when positioning braids.

Step 9: Secure the braid in place with a bobby pin.

Steps 10 and 11: Do the same thing with the braid on the other side.

Step 12: Adjust the braid to your liking and pin away any parts that seem out of place. Spray with a bit of hairspray and voila!

Step 1: Begin with clean, dry hair parted the way you want it for the hairstyle.
Step 2: Section off the top two-thirds of your hair and begin with a one inch section of hair.
Steps 3 & 4: Curl this section of hair using a ½-1 inch curling wand or barrel.
Steps 5 & 6: Take the next 1 inch section and straighten this one.

Steps 7 & 8: Continue alternating between curling and straightening throughout the rest of your hair. If you lose track of which section you last curled, don’t worry about it. The more random and messy this hairstyle looks, the better! When you’re all done, brush out the ends to blend them together and spritz with a bit of hairspray. Voila!

Step 1: Begin with damp, freshly washed hair. You can apply a curl enhancing mousse at this point if you would like, but I chose not to.

Step 2: Begin sectioning off your hair, beginning with the bottom third section.

Step 3: Using a medium sized round brush, blow dry your hair as usual.

Steps 4, 5, & 6: Using a small round brush, brush a 1-2 inch section of hair out from underneath and begin wrapping it like a curling barrel once you reach the bottom.

Step 7: Using your blow dryer, blast some high heat on the “barrel”.

Step 8: Once the hair cools, carefully unroll and unwrap the hair from the round brush, being sure not to pull or tug on the hair too much.

Steps 9 & 10: Start doing the next section the exact same way.Continue with this pattern throughout the rest of your hair.

Step 11: Once you reach the crown of your hair, I like to blow dry the sections up and out to give a little extra volume.

Step 12: Shake out your hair with your fingers, spray a little hair spray and… voila!

Step 1: Begin with dry hair parted and combed the way you want it for the hairstyle.

Step 2: Split your hair in 2 halves and begin by taking out a 1 inch section and clipping away the rest of the hair.

Step 3: Spray a generous amount of water onto your hand using a spray bottle.

Step 4: Run your hand over your hair a few times until the section is damp, but not too wet.

Step 5: We will be using two of our fingers to act as our curling barrel. For tighter curls, use only one finger.

Steps 6-9: Wrap the damp section of your hair loosely around your fingers.

Step 10: I will be using a combination of hair clips and bobby pins to pin my curls in place.

Step 11: Gently pull the curl off of your fingers, holding its shape, and place a pin inside of it to hold it in place.

Step 12: Continue with this same method in 1 inch sections on the rest of this half of hair, and spray on a generous amount of hairspray.

Step 13: Use the same method on the other half of your hair and spray with hairspray. Let the curls set for 30-45 minutes or until dry.

Step 14: Gently undo each of the hair clips/bobby pins and let the curls fall. Shake them out a bit, apply a few more sprays of hairspray and …

Step 15: Voila!

• Step 1: Begin with your hair in it’s natural texture. I like to put a bit of heat protectant in my hair before I begin as well.
• Steps 2 and 3: Pull your hair back into a high ponytail. It doesn’t need to be perfect, just make sure there aren’t too many bumps and it is as high on your head as you can get it while still keeping it clean.
• Step 4: Begin sectioning off your hair.
• Step 5: Take the first section and begin curling. How many sections you do will depend on the thickness of your hair, but 3-6 sections should do the trick. I have pretty thick hair so I did 6 sections.
• Step 6: Continue curling each section.
• Step 7: Once all the sections are curled, spritz on a bit of hair spray to make sure you don’t lose the curls once you take the ponytail out.
• Step 8: Shake out the curls at the scalp.
• Step 9: Shape and part your hair how you want it and …
• Step 10: Voila!

Disclaimer: This hairstyle is for the bold, brave and ultra glamorous! It also takes a tad bit longer than most tutorials I have posted. If you’re up for the challenge, check out the steps below for the Ultimate Faux Hawk!

Step 1: Curl your hair. For the best results, try to make tight curls and clip them up to let them set for a few minutes. The more volume you start with, the better!

Step 2: Divide your hair into three sections: The top section needs to be clipped up out of the way, the Middle section needs to be a sleek, tightly secured ponytail, and the bottom section needs to be a low ponytail.

Steps 3 & 4: Once the bottom section is secured into an elastic, take your middle section and make sure it is tight and sleek on both sides (this is the part of the hairstyle that gives the necessary ‘faux hawk’ impression!). Take some of the curls and secure with bobby pins to cover the base of the bottom ponytail.

Step 5: Here is the fun part! Starting with the back of the top section working your way forward, begin to tease and pin portions of the hair back. This is crucial to give the end result volume.

Steps 6, 7, and 8: Do a once over and secure any loose pieces in place, then spray with hairspray!

Voila! Keep in mind that this edgy hairstyle pairs great with a super girly ensemble! Play around with this look and dress it up with glam accessories and bold red lip! Enjoy!

Step 1: Begin with your hair in either it’s natural texture, or curled. I decided to curl my hair to make the look a little more romantic.
Step 2: Part your hair how you want it and section off a 1-2 inch section starting at the beginning of the part down to the ear.
Steps 3 & 4: Pin the section behind your ear using a bobby pin.
Step 5: Section off the top 1/3 of your hair, being careful not to ruin the section you just pinned.
Step 6: Using a boar bristle brush, tease this section of hair.
Step 7: Smooth the top of the hair and pull it back.
Step 8: Tie the section off with an elastic.
Step 9: Take a 1 inch section out of bottom of the ponytail.
Step 10: Wrap it around the ponytail until it reaches the end and hold in place with a bobby pin. Spray on a small amount of hairspray and… voila!

1. Begin with your hair washed and still wet (or damp). I also applied a heat protectant to protect my hair from any damage the blow dryer may cause. The one I used was TRESemme Thermal Creations Heat Tamer Leave-In Spray.
2. Begin sectioning off 2-3 inch sections (depending on what size hair rollers you’re using and the length and thickness of your hair).
3. Take out one section and begin blow drying with a boar bristle brush to help dry all the hair.
4. Wrap your hair around a hair roller and secure it with a bobby pin.
5. Continue doing this to each section until each section is complete.
6. Spray with hair spray (I used TRESemme Tres Two Spray). I like to let my rollers set for about 10-15 minutes before I take them out.
7. Gently unclip and unwrap one section at a time until all of the sections are out.
8. Apply a small amount of shine serum to get rid of any frizziness the rollers may have caused. I used Garnier Fructis Style Brilliantine Shine Glistening Drops.
9. Shake out your hair and voila!

1. Begin with your hair in it’s natural texture. This hairstyle works best if you begin with a middle part, but you could do a side part as well.
2. Pull all of your hair into a side ponytail.
3. Section the hair above the ponytail into two parts.
4. Pull the ponytail backwards through the hole you just made.
5. Gently tighten the ponytail to make sure it’s secure
6. Gently pull the hair above the ponytail to loosen it up a little.
7. Wrap another ponytail around the hair about 2 inches below the one above it (depending on how thick your hair is), and make another hole for the hair to go through.
8. Pull the hair through and gently pull just like you did before.
9. Continue doing this until you reach the end, and… voila!
