How to make your own hair at home. Long braids are always in fashion

Every modern woman always tries to look beautiful and well-groomed, wherever she is - at home, at work, at school or at a party. However, the lack of time does not always allow you to visit beauty salons as often as you would like. Therefore, the question of how to make a hairstyle for yourself becomes especially relevant. This can be dealt with easily and quickly, using the advice of professionals.

How to do your own hair

In order for the hairstyle to hold well, the hair must be clean and well-groomed. Taboo - greasy roots, split ends, indistinct color and dullness. Healthy shiny hair is the key to excellent styling, even if its owner cannot boast of the density and length of hair.

On average, hair length increases by a centimeter every month. For those who grow them, trichologists recommend trimming the ends at least once a quarter so that the strands look neat.

Hairstyle should emphasize external beauty, and it is important to select it depending on the type of appearance and facial contours.

There are computer programs that will help you choose a hairstyle from an uploaded photo. Hair color, length, condition (thin or thick, straight or curly, dry or oily) should also be taken into account.

A variety of hair care and styling products will be of great help in creating your own image. Use only proven professional brands or folk remedies that have proven themselves well.

Before using a hair dryer, curling iron or flat iron that damages the hair structure, it is necessary to use thermal protection. It is imperative to take care of the condition of the hair both in hot weather and in cold weather.

  • Foam or mousse. They are applied to give the hair extra volume and make the hair stronger. Apply foam or mousse to wet, clean strands, after drying them slightly, then lay them with a hairdryer or curlers. Weak fixation foams hold fine hair well, and strong fixation foams hold thick or curly hair well.
  • Gel. It is recommended to use it to style lush "unruly" hair, using it on a ready-made styling to highlight or smooth individual strands. It is allowed to apply the gel on both wet and dry hair. You can achieve with the gel the illusion of wet hair. It is worth choosing high-quality products without alcohol, which are quickly absorbed and strengthen the hair from the inside.
  • Wax. Indispensable for curls, especially in wet rainy weather. Having treated the hair with wax, you can achieve their softness, "obedience". Strands acquire a lively healthy shine. Wax is suitable for creating smooth, well-fixed styling.
  • Varnish. The final touch in hair styling, when you need to fix an already finished styling or adjust it. Experts insist on the use of fortified varnishes with protection from the negative effects of the environment. Some contain medicinal herbs, thanks to which the tips receive protection from the section, and the hair itself - strength and elasticity. Varnishes should not contain alcohol, which can cause allergies and damage the hair structure, hairdressers warn.

Varnishes differ in the degree of fixation, the tube usually has an inscription on which hair they are suitable for. Super-strong fixing varnishes are usually used for long-term styling. Apply them at a distance of 25 cm from the head for uniform spraying. High-quality varnish does not stick hair and is easily removed when combing.

Romantic hairstyles for medium and long hair

How to create a romantic image, any girl knows. Armed with the necessary items and styling tools, you can make your own hair easily and quickly.

Greek styling

This hairstyle has several variations and requires the use of hairpins and a special bandage:

  • Hair should be combed with a natural comb so that it is not electrified, and divided into a straight parting.
  • Put a wide or narrow bandage on your head and sequentially, starting from the front, wrap the strands under it.
  • Secure with pins and hairspray.
How to make your own hair easy and fast

You can diversify this styling with bundles woven from individual strands. Washed and dried hair with a styling agent applied to it should be wound on curlers, weaving a braid or “spikelet” out of their part, and twisting the rest with bundles and tucking it under a bandage from your own hair.

Low ponytail with flower

An option for a festive styling can be a hair flower. The basis of the hairstyle is a ponytail tied at the back of the head:

  • On the side, you need to select a small strand and braid it into a pigtail, in the process of this, the strands need to be pulled out of the already braided part.

  • Lightly spraying the pigtail with varnish, twist it from the tip to make a flower resembling a rose.
  • With invisible or hairpins, stab the flower at the base.
  • Unwind the remaining strands to wind and lay in the form of curls.

curls

To create curls, you need to wind long strands on large or medium curlers or a conical curling iron, holding it vertically. Before you start creating curls, you should treat the strands with a permanent fixative, since long hair is usually heavy and the styling does not last very long.

The twisted strands can be carelessly disassembled with your fingers and laid with varnish, or you can lift them up and pin them with a beautiful hairpin, tie them in a ponytail, releasing individual curls. You can leave your hair straight by twisting part of the strands and fixing them with varnish.

Curls on medium-long hair can be created with:

  • ironing;
  • hair dryer;
  • tongs;
  • curlers;
  • papillots;
  • Thermo curlers.

To wind with an iron or curling iron, divide the strands into zones and twist them one at a time at a small distance from the roots. It depends on the diameter of the curling iron whether large or small curls will turn out.

Clean damp hair should be wound on curlers, dried with a hair dryer or in a natural way, disassembled with fingers, fixed with varnish. Papillots (soft foam curlers) can curl small curls. Such curlers can be left on the head at night - they do not interfere with normal sleep.

Thermal curlers are plastic and have a paraffin rod. They are more gentle than electric tongs or flat irons. Curls obtained with thermal curlers last longer than those curled with a curling iron or iron. Another way to get curls is small pigtails, which can be braided before going to bed from all the hair, and the next morning unravel and comb.

light waves

Curlers (regular or thermo) of medium size can easily and quickly create them, having which you can not rack your brains on how to make your own hair. After the hair has been twisted, dried and the curlers removed, you should separate it with your fingers, smooth it and, sprinkled with varnish, fix it with hairpins.

Brushing is a way to create light waves with a hair dryer and a round comb. Each strand should be carefully removed from the brush and treated with varnish, then beat all the hair with your hands. You can braid your hair into small pigtails and run an iron through them. After unplaiting the braids, disassemble the waves with your fingers and spray varnish on them.

romantic bun

A bunch of long or semi-long hair looks advantageous both on weekdays and on holidays, stylists say. A smoothed bun looks especially elegant: the hair is straightened, gathered in a ponytail and smoothed with a comb. The tail is twisted into a spiral, coiled and secured with hairpins. It can be sprinkled with varnish, and the hair on the head can be lubricated with gel.

A bundle also happens with side braids hidden in its middle, with two thin rims worn on the head, and with a voluminous roller under the hair.

There are many variations on the theme of the Russian braid: smooth, voluminous, tousled, asymmetrical, with or without parting. 1 of its options is a “spikelet”, where instead of the usual 3 alternating strands, 2 are used with the addition of the following in turn.

  • Weaving begins with a small bundle disassembled into 3 parts with the addition of strands so that all the hair is gathered at the end.
  • Weaving should start from the crown and lead all over the head in the form of a crown, it can be straight and reverse.

French braid "vice versa"

Weaving in Greek represents a combination of smooth hair and a braid resembling a hoop. 3 strands are taken closer to the parting, adding small strands to them, with which the “hoop” is fixed on the head.

Oriental braids are distinguished by their bizarre forms and the presence of decorations in them:

  • To braid the bundles, the hair is divided into 2 strands, each of them is twisted in 1 direction, then the strands are cross-twined in the opposite direction.
  • Harnesses can be combined with loose curls, side braids, ponytails.

Afro braids weave from the back of the head to the temples. They can be laid out on the shoulders, or you can weave thick braids from them, tie a tail. Zizi are woven with artificial strands; curls - curls are twisted in a spiral.

To weave "French Waterfall", you need to braid 1 or 2 braids, starting at the temples and ending at the back of the head, while each lower strand should freely go down to the back.

For creating "baskets" the hair should be collected in a ponytail at the crown, then, starting from the temple, weave a French braid, alternately adding strands from the tail and loose hair.

"French twist" or "shell" is a very elegant hairstyle for the evening. The hair should be divided into a side parting, twist all the strands into a tourniquet and stab it up, fixing it with invisibility. Such styling looks original with bangs combed to the side, laid in waves, or, conversely, with it raised up and combed.

After drying, make a parting and tie 2 low tails, from which to form 2 bunches, securing each with hairpins. Decorate the bundles with hairpins or flowers.

A high lush bun can be decorated with curls from curls. To add volume, you can use a roller or chignon.

We hope you have seen that you can easily do without a personal hairdresser. As you can see, every girl can make an interesting hairstyle in a few minutes. Do you agree? Then experiment with your hair.

A hairstyle in the appearance of any person, and especially a woman, is no less important than makeup and clothes. Neatly and tastefully laid hair gives the female appearance a special gloss, turning the admiring glances of others on their owner. Therefore, beauties constantly try to monitor the condition of their pretty head, wherever they are: at school, at work, at a party or at home.

If the hairdresser where your personal master works is a stone's throw from him, consider yourself very lucky. But if suddenly the services of a coufer are not available at the moment for one reason or another, and the girl urgently needed to bring her hair “in a divine form”, what then?

It's okay: in principle, any of the fair sex is quite able to independently build several options for original and beautiful hairstyles from their "mane" at home. We bring to your attention "hairdressing courses at home", and we hope that our tips, tested in practice, will help you to believe in yourself.

An important note for those who are experimenting for the first time: try to have at least a two-hour margin of time in reserve - in case you don’t like something, and the “hairstyle” will have to be redone.

What do you need for a good haircut? First of all, you need to figure out which style suits you. It depends on many factors, including the contour of the face. He can be:

  • square;
  • triangular (heart-shaped);
  • round;
  • elongated;
  • oval.

With a square type, rounded hairstyles that cover the auricles are suitable. They will give the image softness and femininity. The length should be medium: too short or too long hair “weights” the face, focusing on the chin.

The owners of "hearts" go for images that create volume in the chin area, and thus visually balance the face. Lush bouffants over the forehead - not for them.

Chubby ones can experiment: they have a very rich choice of options, from simple to multi-layered. However, rounded shapes that repeat the oval of the face are clearly excluded.

For a lady with an elongated facial type, a short haircut is best, visually “expanding” it.

The oval shape is perfect in every sense, almost any type of hairstyle goes with it, with the exception of those that cover the forehead and cheeks.

If you find it difficult to determine your type, the simplest test will help you: looking in the mirror, carefully circle the contours of the reflection with lipstick, then move away from it. The drawing left on the glass will put everything in its place. Next, we propose to learn how to make a hairstyle for yourself for short hair, medium length or long curls.

Curls and buns, braids and ponytails

When everything is clear with the face, we will clarify the options for hairstyles. They can be simple and complex, everyday and festive. To work on them, you will need various power tools, such as a hair dryer, curling iron and hairdressing iron, as well as combs and brushes, hairpins and varnish to fix the result. All is ready? Let's get started!

Spit - girlish beauty

Braids are one of the most common types of hairstyles for long hair. But do not think that, braiding them, the girl will certainly take on the appearance of an exemplary high school student from the movie of the middle of the last century.

A braid can look very stylish if you use fairly original weaving methods. Let's talk about the two most fashionable ones - the so-called French weaving and the "fish tail": those who master them perfectly will easily cope with the problem of long and thick hair. How to quickly make the simplest hairstyle for yourself?

French braid:


If everything is done correctly, the braid should turn out smooth and elastic, and the weaving pattern should be clear and well visible.

"Fishtail" - this is how this braid is called in Europe (English "fish tail"). In Russia, such a braid is usually called a “spikelet” or “herringbone”.

It is perfect for everyday wear. At the same time, the hair does not stretch, is not pinched or injured, and some conceived looseness and delicacy contributes to the fact that, even if slightly disheveled at the end of the day, the pigtail does not look untidy. So, forward, to the French charm!

  1. Carefully smooth and comb your mane.
  2. Divide it in half.
  3. Grabbing a strand from the outside of the left half, throw it over the top to the center and attach it to the right side.
  4. Repeat this action in a mirror order with the right side.
  5. When finished weaving, fix the tip with an elastic band or sprinkle with varnish - then it will not crumble even without it.

To give an openwork weave, slightly pull the hairs at the roots and loosen them. The middle and lower parts of the braid do not need to be touched so as not to disturb the composition.

Both the “French” and “mermaid” methods are suitable for both an adult girl and a little girl, but in this case, the mother will have to do the pigtail, since the child cannot cope with such a task on her own.

Average length at a high level

From medium length hair, you can quickly create a variety of bunches.

Method number 1: "harnesses":

  1. We make a high ponytail on the head.
  2. We divide into several equal parts.

  4. We collect a bundle from the bundles.
  5. We pierce with pins.

Method number 2: "shell":


Method number 3: from the "reverse" tail:

  1. After combing the hair, make a ponytail out of it and pull it off with a wide elastic band.
  2. Pull the elastic down a little and, dividing the strands, turn the tail outward, putting it between them.
  3. Braid the inside out in a fishtail style, tying the end with a thin elastic band.
  4. Gently stretch the hairs to make the braid more voluminous.
  5. Raise it up, tucking the tip to the base.
  6. Fasten the bun with hairpins

Method number 4: from braids:


But you should not be limited to only one beam. On strands of medium length, curls curled with a curling iron look great. Here's how it's done.

Soft waves:

  1. The temperature of the tongs is medium.
  2. The strands are wound on the blades of the curling iron.
  3. It is not worth keeping the hair on them for a long time - this time only a slight waviness is needed.
  4. Repeat steps 6 and 7 (see above).

Elastic springs:

  1. After setting the temperature to high, warm the tongs.
  2. Divide your hair into several strands, protecting them with a special tool from overheating.
  3. In turn, gently wind each of them onto the curling iron, withstanding the maximum allowable amount of time.
  4. Remove the ring from the tongs, fasten it to the head with the help of an invisibility and do not remove it until the strands have cooled.
  5. Repeat the operation with each strand.
  6. Comb with a coarse-toothed comb.
  7. Spray with varnish.

The common belief that the shorter the mane, the more limited the choice of hairstyles is wrong. Owners of short (but not “boyish”) haircuts have many ways to quickly arrange something original and memorable on their heads.

So, for example, a regular parting can be straight, oblique, zigzaz, etc. There are more spectacular, but not so complicated samples.

  2. In the process of "wet" styling, the strands are wetted with a special gel and placed on the head with a comb - as you please.
  3. Using an iron or curling iron, decorate the haircut with curls. Curled inside, they will give your look a touch of classicism; if you twist them outward, it will become more creative and modern.
  4. A festive look will be given to you by strands twisted into flagella at the temples, fixed at the back with hairpins and brooches.
  5. The bob style can be diversified with a low tail, releasing curls on the sides to frame the face.
  6. Combing the back of your head on a straight or wavy parting, make a pair of small ponytails on the sides out of curls - and now you are no longer a respectable lady, but a mischievous girl Pippi Longstocking.
  7. With an asymmetric haircut, the mane is parted with a side parting, and on the smaller side they are twisted into flagella, fastened with invisibility. Most of the hair is curled in light curls and slightly combed.

Thus, a short haircut is not an obstacle to experimenting with the image, allowing you to constantly change your appearance, not allowing it to be “ordinary” both in your own eyes and in the eyes of the people around you.

So, we looked at several types of hairstyles for a variety of types of faces and hair. Now you know how to make a beautiful hairstyle for yourself for a holiday or everyday - to school, to work, to study.

We hope that you will be able to choose among them the one that will help to give your appearance features of charming charm and originality.

And another hairstyle idea that you can do yourself is in the next video.

When there are no opportunities to regularly visit the hairdresser and shine with the perfect professional styling day after day, there is no other way out but to start doing good hairstyles yourself. Of course, thanks to the Internet, today it is not so difficult to do this - a lot of step-by-step video tutorials on how to make this or that hairstyle without involving third parties; a lot of photos, also taken as the hairstyle was created.

The main criteria for a good hairstyle

So that the result of long torment does not become a nest on your head, you need to remember a couple of simple recommendations, following which, you will very soon achieve perfection in creating your own hairstyle.

1. Healthy hair. Get rid of split ends in time, restore chemically damaged hair (after the same hair coloring, for example), treat dry and oily hair, get rid of dandruff (URGENTLY!), if possible, laminate so that the hair is smooth and shines with a healthy color. Then the hairstyle will look beautiful, elegant and well-groomed.

2. Clean hair. With the naked eye, you can determine whether the girl is clean or they have not seen shampoo and water for a week. Clean hair shines, it is light, soft and delicate to the touch, it smells good. Dirty hair is collected in separate disheveled strands, they are very easy to style, unlike clean ones - try to remove the bangs with your palm from your forehead, combing it up with your fingers - if the hair is in no hurry to return back to the forehead, then it's time to go to the bathroom. In addition, unwashed hair smells unpleasant and is hard, greasy to the touch.

What do you need to do your own hair?

First, a ready-made idea of ​​what hairstyle you would like to make yourself. If you spin for hours, saying “my light, mirror, tell me what hairstyle I should do”, it will drag on for a long time, because the mirror cannot speak. First, let's decide what kind of hair we want to build on our heads.
Secondly, a set of tools for styling and fixing the result of our labors - mousse, curlers or curling iron (straightening iron, if necessary), hair dryer, massage and (or) comb, hairpins, invisible, hairpins, elastic bands, etc.

What celebration are we going to?

Depending on the type of celebration, hairstyles can be completely different - you won’t come to a business meeting with the same hair. Therefore, we treat the choice carefully and taking into account where we are going to go.

Hairstyle for short hair: 3 ways

Method one

Apply balm to washed hair and dry a little with a hairdryer. Dividing the hair into strands, randomly beat each of them with your fingers to make light curls. We fix each with foam or mousse. The hairstyle is ready. Strands can also be laid with the help of a round massager, so that the volume is more impressive. Now it remains to fix the entire result with varnish, preferably a strong fixation. Such hair is done in 10 minutes, and it is universal for almost everyone.

Method two

We separate the washed hair with a side parting and wind the strands on the curling iron. We lay the resulting curls in a certain sequence. Randomness, as in the first method, we do not need here. Accordingly, we fix the resulting beauty with varnish and you can go to the office and even to a party!

Method three

Moisturize your hair and apply a small amount of hair styling product to them. Apply mousse to the root area. After that, the hair will need to be dried with a hairdryer. We wind the strands on small curlers. A little later, we remove and, NOT combing the hair, we beautifully style the curls into a chic hairstyle, fixing it with varnish of any fixation.

How to style your own hair for medium to long hair

Curls

Curls look very elegant on medium hair. To do this, we wind individual strands on curlers. The larger the curls you want, the larger the diameter of the curlers should be. If you want cute curls, take the smallest curlers. If you want big waves - take the appropriate diameter.
After the curlers are removed, do not comb the hair, otherwise the nest on the head cannot be avoided. Instead, take a styling bottle (gel or mousse) and with your hands, carefully and carefully style the curls in any order. Do not forget about fixing the final result. This hairstyle takes about 30 minutes, but it is universal for any event.

Do-it-yourself bundle

Medium hair can also be collected in a bun. You need to comb well and slightly lift them in the parietal region. Now we make a pile there and form a high ponytail, leaving the ends of the hair in an elastic band. We divide the tail into 2 parts. We comb the left strand and transfer it to the lower right part of the ponytail, fasten it and fix it with varnish.

Unsurpassed Greek style

You can make a hairstyle with your own hands and in the Greek style. We make volume using curlers or curling irons. We put an elastic bandage on the head, it is not necessary to let the hair out from under the bandage, we dress it like a hat.
After that, we divide the hair into 3 parts (left, right and at the back of the head), and we fill each of the resulting strands under the bandage so that the tips also look out.
We improve the volume by slightly stretching the strands from the ring, and we fix the whole hairstyle. Choose the decorations according to your taste.

Feminine and gentle French waterfall

A good hairstyle is a French waterfall, also ideal for long hair. It is simple to perform, but the result is chic, and does not take much time for styling. We make a side parting for the whole head and from the front side we begin to weave the braid in the direction down and obliquely. Having reached the ear line, let go of the lower strand, take a new one next to it and weave it into the braid.

And so every time, releasing the lower strand and weaving in a new one, we reach the second ear and fix the hairstyle behind the lobe with invisible or hairpins. The hairstyle is good for wavy hair, because strands hanging from under the braid look especially good in this form.

See photos of examples of a French waterfall in our article about it

There are many different variations of the French waterfall - both with a bunch, and with a double oblique, and a symmetrical waterfall. The advantage is that the hairstyle is done quickly and securely holds the whole even without strong fixation. The whole beauty of the hairstyle is precisely in the fact that the hanging “waves” should flutter freely, and not look like stone because of the large amount of varnish. A French waterfall should be light, airy and gentle.

Now it will not be difficult for you to make yourself a chic hairstyle yourself and go with it to any celebration or important event!
