The "It" Girl Hairstyle That Takes Less Than 10 MinutesThese sophisticated half bun hair looks will take you from the office to a wedding (and everywhere in between) |
The "Wash and Go" Half Bun How to:
1. Working with an old wash and go hairstyle, use your fingers to part off hair in the front of your head, from the ears up. With this top front section parted off, loosely wrap a hair elastic around your hair in back to get it temporarily out of your way.
2. Dampen the hair in front around your forehead with a little bit of water, then apply a sculpting wax in the same place. (Try Garnier Fructis Style Pure Clean Finishing Paste, $4.29.) Work the wax into your hair with a soft bristle brush.
3. Pull that top front section into a superhigh ponytail right on top of your head, and secure with an elastic.
4. Divide the ponytail into two sections and wrap the sections around each other, coiling the hair into a polished bun. Pin the bun to your head with a few bobby pins.
5. Take the hair in back out from the elastic, and you're good to go.
