Good morning, gamers today, i am sharing with you guys, six genji impact inspired hairstyles originally, when i opened up requests on which game characters for me to cover for a hairstyle tutorial, more than fifty percent of the requests were just for genshin. So i was like you know what why the hell, not so the characters that we are going to be covering today are shang ling, yao, yao, kurting, venti, cli and also ning guang and, as usual, as for my last few videos, every piece of jewelry that i'm Wearing today is from my limited edition collection with kesten and, as usual, you can find more information about that in the description box below. So i'm starting off with my hair straight, except with the ends curled in and i used the t3 lucia id smart, straightening and styling iron in one inch to pre-style my hair. If you see any splotchiness or unevenness in my hair color in this video just know that i have given up and i'm too tired to care alright. First, we are starting off with changling. So changling has this bow made out of a braid and from the front it kind of looks like bare ears and from the back it looks like a real bow. So first, i'm tying off two mid height ponytails in the back of my head. You want these to be so close to each other, that they practically look like a ponytail, but it's actually two pigtails. Instead and the closer you can get these two together, the better the result will be, and then with each pigtail, i'm braiding them off with a regular, three-strand braid and then securing it at the end with a clear elastic, then taking each pigtail, i'm folding it in On itself - and i'm pinning it down the center so that the tail hangs diagonally and it's really easy to pin these in place. You just need a couple of crossed bobby pins and this hairstyle is going to be super secure. Then taking the other braid, i'm repeating the process, folding it over our first braid and then pinning it in place with a crossed bobby pin and honestly that is it. It actually really stays, and it's really cute. If you want some character accuracy, you can use any sort of red hair bow and you just want to pin it at the top to sort of cover all of the bobby pins, but for myself personally, i wanted to put my own spin on it, so i Grabbed this oversized pink, silk bow and i just inserted it at the top again to cover all the bobby pins from the front. Strongling has this little paw print clip, so i just put on a little floral crystal clip to sort of like mimic her look, and that is it for this hairstyle. I fiddled with so many versions of this hairstyle until i finally found one that was both quick and easy to do, but also actually just like stays really well. So i'm really proud of how this turned out. It looks ridiculously cute and surprisingly, the hair stays really really well. I think the braid gives a lot of structural integrity to this hairstyle, so you don't have to worry about it. Flopping around or flopping out of place either. So next yayo is actually an unreleased character, but she was lead a while back, and i wanted to show you guys a different way of doing this. Braided bow that i did for changling. So you want to tie the highest ponytail. You can possibly manage then splitting this ponytail in half, i'm going to be braiding off each side, with a regular three strand, braid and then tying off the ends with clear elastics. Then again like we did for xiangling, i'm just taking each braid and i'm folding it over itself and lapping it over the center to create a bow, and then i'm pinning this in place so because this hairstyle utilizes just one large ponytail. Instead, it's really thick at the base so, rather than pinning it with a flat bobby pin, you'll actually want to pin it straight down, and this actually helps it stay insanely in place, and it's super tight and it's probably not going to like fling around. I just used a little bit of hairspray on my hands to smooth down the flyaways, i'm just mimicking the little flower clips that she has in the front of her hair with some small crystal ones instead, and that is it for this hairstyle again. It'S super super easy all right. Next, we are going into coating. She has a little braid on the front left side of her hair. So first i'm just sectioning off about two inches of hair and then i'm doing a quick little french braid braiding it halfway down and then temporarily securing this off with an elastic then for her little hair horns from the top of my head to right. Above my temple, i'm sectioning off a small section of hair, and this is only about like two inches of hair. You don't really want to use too much, then, on the other side, just to keep it even i'm sectioning off the same two inches of hair that i used for the braid on the other side and then i'm sectioning the same top two inches of hair. On the top for my horn, so after all the sectioning, this is what you're left with so to create horns out of your hair. You want to take your little pigtail and you want to twist it really tightly on itself. Then pinching about one inch away from the top of your head. You want to fold it over itself. You want to wrap it over the elastic so that it starts to stand up on itself, and then you want to just keep twisting and keep winding the hair around itself until you sort of get something that stands up on its own and then by using your Fingers to just sort of pull things in place, you sort of get something that looks like a horn. Then, of course you just want to take a bunch of bobby pins and secure this in place. So once we have our hair horns, you just want to split your hair straight down the center and then tie everything off into two pigtails, so that is it for coatings hairstyle. I feel like this might be like the most accurate to game hairstyle that i did in this video, probably because of the purple hair too. But overall, it really is just an easy hairstyle to do all right. We'Re going to tone down the difficulty level by a lot and we're going to do something really simple: we're going to do venti so venti has this really cute little ombre for his braids in the front, and i dug around through my extensions and i found the Perfect bright purple, that's going to give the same sort of contrast with my darker hair color. So i'm just sectioning off a portion of hair in front of my ear and then i'm just clipping the extension on on both sides and then from here on. I'M just doing a simple three strand braid and securing it off with a clear elastic, and that is it for this hairstyle super quick. It takes probably like two minutes, but it's still a really fun cute, interesting way to incorporate some sort of like nerdiness into your daily hairstyle, and obviously you can use like a bunch of different colors of extensions, so overall great hairstyle. Thank you venti. Next, we're going to do another quick and easy hairstyle, and this one is for cli. This one mainly has to do with a lot of sectioning, but it still makes a really damn cute hairstyle. So first i'm splitting my hair straight down the center in the back and then after pulling away the pieces of hair. That frame my face, i'm grabbing about two inches of hair right behind my ear and then tying off the rest of the hair into a mid height, pigtail, and then i'm repeating on the other side. And then, since clay wears a really cute hat. I just threw on a beret just to sort of complete the same silhouette and that's it for this hairstyle. I know this one is really simple, but honestly, i'm so surprised at how cute and how effective this hairstyle is, because i feel like this hairstyle actually makes my hair look a lot longer, because when you tie your hair up into pigtails, obviously you lose a little Bit of the length, because your hair is all tied up, but when you leave a tiny bit of hair out like this, it makes your hair look as long as it actually is, and it's just a fun different way to wear pigtails all right. So our last hairstyle is ning guang and when i got requests for this, i looked at her hair and i was like hell. No, what the hell is going on, but i played around with it a little bit and i think that, although it's not completely character accurate, i feel like i got something that is at least nicely inspired by her, and it's also easy to do so. Here we go so first, i'm sectioning off the top portion of my hair and then i'm brushing it over to the left side. Then, with the second elastic i'm pulling the hair halfway through and then i'm separating it in half then taking the remainder of hair in the back. I'M looping this over in the front and then i'm pinning everything in place - and i mainly put bobby pins in the center to keep the hair down and then also on one side to keep the bow down after using a little bit of hairspray. To keep everything in place with a chinese hair: stick i'm just inserting this into the center, and that is it for this very loosely ninguan inspired, hairstyle! Sorry! So much is happening with this last hairstyle like it's even all like this last footage is also just like really out of focus. I don't know why my camera decided to freak out, but that's it for this video and that's it for these six easy hairstyles inspired by genshin impact characters. Thank you so much for sending in your requests on instagram. As always, i really appreciate having you guys part of the conversation. It just makes these videos so much more fun to do. I definitely do want to do more game character, inspired hairstyles in the future. I'M definitely always going to be opening up more requests on instagram. So feel free to follow me at princess may, if you want to be a part of the next lineup but other than that. Thank you so much for watching, and i will see you guys again next week you

Lyna: I used to go with venti's till I realized my crazy short curly hair is just too wild, now I combine my bangs and some of the front hair to the left forming a single braid. Then tied it at the back as a bun like albeto lollll
Ema: I absolutely love the chinese hair sticks they are so beautiful and really decorate the hair
Wawa Wu: Remember Venti is not a girl- he is the god, Barbatos.
Carmen Chen: Living for all of these hairstyle videos ☺️
Aurélie: Me watching this when I can't even make a proper ponytail: interesting.
Szeszil-sensei: they look very cute! I should really learn how to braid my own hair
Ruth Rodriguez: I tried the Klee hairstyle and it was so cute that I did it everyday
Lins Linz: I really wanted the simplest ones and I think it's either, Venti or Klee! Since I don't really like braiding my hair imo I wanted to do Klee's but the Venti hairstyle looks wayy more simple than Klee's With all this confusion I just chose Ninguang's ✋ I CAN'T HELP IT, I REALLY WANT TO TRY OUT THE CLIP THINGY ON THE HAIR (I FORGOT WHAT IT'S CALLED) Edit : it's a Chinese Hair-Stick mehehe

Jade: You are so pretty I'm letting my hair grow so I can do your hairstyles
Retronyx: I'm really jealous of how many hairstyle a girl can do and xiangling one look really good in real life
C0ZI: Since I literally love Genshin Impact, i was thinking about getting a hair cut like Venti's (since my current hairstyle is already very similar, the back was just longer). I don't know why I kinda want this, but i was wondering if anyone here could say something about it because I'm still not sure. Edit: If i do decide to, i will not be getting the bangs due to it being problematic for some reasons
://phntm: Damn I didn’t think I’d come across a video like this, kinda wish I had long hair now ‘cause the hairstyles are pretty cool and unique. Also great tutorial!

Len: as a genshin cosplayer, thank fuck i watched this video before styling my wigs
mari: bless you i've always hated how i look in any sort of hairstyle but i just tried klee's and i feel so cute ;w;

Bianca Lozano: I tried Xiangling's hairstyle and its so cute
Shingetchu: Okay, the klee hairstyle looks hella good on her!
uae hau: hii! i really like this tutorial and i tried klee hairstyle and it really helps! can you do hu tao next if that's okay ?
TeoGPanda: Wish me luck guys I am going to attempt summoning for both Venti and Childe (I’d be happy with either but if I had to pick one I’d pick Venti cause he’s OP lol)
Shakiya Lisane: Out of all of these Klee had the most simple hairstyle compared to everyone else.
Annie: I'm obsessed with these looks
Nufar Cohen: Omg, everything is so cute!
