Pop quiz: how are you doing all your hair lately? Proper now, my nine-month-old child Emiliano is in that “seize and tug every little thing” part, so I’ve been searching for types that maintain my hair out of attain.
For the previous yr, I’ve been a fan of claw clips (put on my hair like Rachel Inexperienced? Sure, please.) However these days, I’ve been seeing images of girls with smooth buns and romantic twists, and peeking out the highest is the elegant curve of a French pin. Listed below are just a few:
A tight twist, good for dinner dates.
A tidy bun for knocking round at dwelling or having associates over for snacks.
This mushy, tousled twist with untucked ends jogs my memory of Julie Delpy in Earlier than Dawn.
Impressed, I attempted doing a twist. My hair was on day two of a salon blowout, so I wasn’t shocked when each strand stayed in place. If you happen to, too, desire a smooth twist, blow dry and clean out any waves with a straighter earlier than wrapping it up. (If you happen to do a twist on air dried hair and have layers, a pair layers will poke out, leaving you with a fairly tousled look.) Listed below are tutorials for lengthy and brief hair.
Subsequent I attempted a prime knot. I noticed that, to make it final, you need to hook the pin into the piece of the bun that’s above the bun tail, then weave the pin beneath the tail and straight into your bun. This system anchors your hair down. I actually like this TikTok video, which provides step-by-step directions.
Lastly, maintain the pin poking out. A part of the attraction is seeing the beautiful pin on the prime, don’t you assume? I’ve been loving the maintain of this Goal one, and I even have my eye on this cool tortoise quantity.
Ideas? Would put on a French pin (or have you ever)? I plan to put on these simple updos all fall.
