Hey guys, probably like most of you, I haven't wore ribbon in my hair, since I was a child, But recently I've re-fallen in love with it, and I wanted to share it. My newfound love with you guys, I think, adding Ribbon to your hairstyles, is just a great way to personalize them, make them your own. So today I thought I would share with you three easy and surprisingly chic hairstyles incorporating Ribbon into your hair in a grown-up way. So let's get started first up is my favorite and it says: Brigitte bardot, inspired, half up half down hairstyle That I could just picture at any outdoor event and I think it'd be perfect for a bridal shower first step Loosely gather all of the hair at the Top of your head and just above your ears, And you want to make sure that you're only gathering the top layer of hair. As you can see here, I still have quite a bit of hair at left down underneath And I just grabbed that top layer. Next step tie up your hair with the hair elastic Just below the center of your head to make this hairstyle stand out and give it that Brigitte bardot Style and just gently pulling out this side to loosen them up. And then I'm grabbing medium sized pieces on the top as well just to help add some additional volume without having to tease and hairspray our hair and Once you're happy with this, we can move on to the next step., Which is so simple. It adds so much drama to this hairstyle, So just lift your ponytail up about an inch or two, and then you just want to pin the elastic to your head with two Bobby pins. So slide them right through your hair elastic and onto your head, making sure that you are sliding them in diagonally, So they form a cross and stay nice and secure guys. Isn'T it incredible what a difference that simple step makes, I think it's so 70s and adorable.. I absolutely love this and for this hairstyle, since it's more feminine, I thought a dainty, pretty pink Ribbon would be perfect. All I did was slid it underneath my hair elastic making sure that it's equal lengths on both sides and then I wrapped the two sides around one another, the exact same as the first step of tying a shoe, and then I just made it into A bow. It is a little tricky tying a bow behind your head I'll. Tell you that much so take your time with it and practice. This hairstyle is incredibly simple, but it's so charming and sweet, and I think the bow is the perfect touch. Next up. Is this casual and effortless bun that I think it's perfect for every day, And I can just picture this in the fall paired with a Chunky. Knit sweater first up is simple: Just loosely gather all of your hair into a low ponytail And if you're, using a ribbon, try to match your hair elastic color to your ribbon. And since this hairstyle is so effortless, I'm just gently pulling on the sides to loosen them up and as well as around the crown of my head, Just to help add some additional volume, and I find that this just gives the hairstyle a more casual Appearance. Now, since this hairstyle is more casual and cool., I thought a transparent, thin black Ribbon would be perfect. I just placed my ribbon underneath my ponytail and I tied the two sides around one another to form a knot, But I'm not gon na create my bow just yet to create the bun.. It'S simple Just place your hands, underneath your ponytail and wrap your ends around your hand. If your hair is shorter, Then just wrap your ends around a couple of your fingers and once your hair is wrapped, like a bun Just make sure your ends are hidden and not poking out, And I just want to hold everything nice and secure with one hand And then we're gon na cross the Ribbon through that hole in the center of the bun. I first pulled through the right side of the Ribbon and then I pulled through the left. I promise it's much easier than it sounds once you pull through both sides of your ribbon. You can now create a bow, so just not the two sides together By tying one around the other and make sure it's nice and tight to hold our bun in place, And then I just finished it off with a bow. I love how simple and effortless this hairstyle is, and I think the bow is the perfect way to elevate such a casual and Classic hairstyle. And lastly, I knew I wanted to do a big floppy. Satin bow. I just I'd be so perfect for the holidays, and the soft Ponytail was the perfect pairing first step quite simple, gather all of your hair and making sure to get those neck hairs to and create A low ponytail and just tie it off with the hair elastic. Next, we want to create a topsy tail now. They do make tools for this I'll link them below. But it's simple enough to do yourself. Just take your index finger and thumb on both hands And you want to create a hole behind your hair elastic Once you have your hole, you just want to flip your ponytail up and pull it through that hole Depending on how much hair you have or its Length This can be a little finicky, but take your time with it and make sure that you pull it all the way through Once it through. It should look similar to this, But I wanted my ponytail to appear Softer and less put together. So I gently pulled on some small pieces along the top of my twists, using my index finger and thumb, and then I also pulled up on some areas around the crown of my head to create more fullness and movement, And i find doing these steps makes the Hairstyle look more elegant Than just a topsy tail and to finish off this look I thought this beautiful thick black Satin Ribbon would be absolutely perfect, so I placed it underneath my ponytail and a tightly tied the two sides together and then tied them into a Bow And I really wanted a big floppy long bow for this hairstyle, what a difference adding a bow can make. I love how it takes such a simple, everyday hairstyle and gives it a more formal and Personalized appearance, don't be afraid to play around with different textures, colors and styles of materials. So there we have you guys three really simple ways to incorporate Ribbon into your hairstyles And I would love if you let me know which look was your favorite. I hope that these hairstyles inspired you to try something different, whether it's adding Ribbon to your hair or a different hair Accessory that I'd love to hear your thoughts on this. Do you think that Ribbons are too girly, or do you agree with me and Think that they are surprisingly chic and can be worn as a grown-up and if you just like to add, Ribbon to any your hairstyles, even if it's just a simple ponytail, Please share It with me - I know I say this all the time, But I absolutely love seeing how creative you guys are, but I really hope that you guys enjoyed this video if you did don't forget To give it a thumbs up, and I will talk to you guys, Soon.

Alexis B.: I love wearing hair ribbons, but sometimes I do get hate from people who think its childish or too girly. To each their own I say!

Ava Williams: No such thing as “too girly”. Women wore bows in the fifties all the time, it’s a shame that pure femininity has so much stigma against it these days.

Reina Philabaum: Love this! I always used to love wearing ribbons in my hair but also recently thought I'm maybe to old to pull it off now. This not only had really lovely elegant methods of doing it, but has really made me want to give it a try! Thank you :)

MSUSPARTANS 1995: I love how you executed your ribbon looks!! I'd wear every last look! If people like them, but feel they're too girly, they can always wear some beat up ankle boots, or leather jacket, etc. I think the juxtaposition of femininity meats grunge can turn out to be super cute!

twominutetips: All are lovely. And just a note - the more bouffant crown was in the 60's whereas the 70's was flat to the head often with a centre part. I know I, I lived through those decades. :)

Elisabeth Harvey: men used to wear ribbons in their hair, that's how I fell in love with this. really happy to see that you did a video like this :D

metcalfswoman: I love ribbons. I wear them in my hair all the time! Different colours and thickness depending on what I'm wearing. They're so cute and simple.

amystified: I'm so glad you made a video on how to incorporate ribbons. I knew they were on trend, but I was afraid of looking like a little girl. Your styles look effortlessly chic and elegant. Can't wait to try!

Annalise: I love the color of her hair! Also I am definitely going to try all of these!

Ginny R: Loved these styles. They are so cute and simple. Thanks Alex.

Connie Fan: Such beautiful and sweet looks!! Jessi Malay just did some really lovely hairstyles too, love you guys both <3

Unsound Orca: These are SO cute! I love the bobby pin trick you did for volume on the first one. Definitely trying that one out tomorrow <3

Berklee Ryann: I love these! So elegant!

Anika T Ahmed: your have the most beautiful hair!! so healthy and glossy <3

Lexie: Random and probably coming off as creepy but I love your shoulder freckles. They just suit you so much.

curly dude: I'm thinking about using a ribbon in my hair when dressing for black tie and white tie. It seems like a formal and elegant way of dealing with one's long hair during special events.

7047 Akanksha Rajpati: I absolutely needed this video recently.... thanks for this. I love all the hairstyles....these r lovely n cute.

Ingrid Erawan: Hi Alex ,I'm ingrid erawan. I love the hair in a ponytail with a ribbon like princess belle . Nice to meet you Alex . Your hair in a ribbon looks nice on us. ❤️

9MILROSASBEAUTY: really nice and easy hairstyles love them all ❤

Papaya295: wow the last one is so easy! i tried doing it with just the beginning ( without the bow ) :)

Lisa Helfrich: I'm all about the first hairstyle cause I can do it too So beautiful❤ I'm sure it fits perfectly to my vintage dress

Coral: LOVE THESE LOOKS you are stunnnning! <3 <3

Itzel Arriaga: can you do a video for super curly hair because my hair is natural curly. love your channel

ronnette harvey: I like the second one but I would have liked to see what it looks like to capture the ribbon in the topsy tail and tie the ribbon there. I think it would be smashing! use a silvery dark purple with your hair color and use the same size. great!

A Warnke: I greatly enjoy your hair videos. We think alike about not teasing hair. Thank you so much. And I loved wearing hair bows I should do it again.

lynda harrison: I love the third one the most but all three are pretty and very feminine

Have a magical day: I totally see why you reached 100k but you kinda deserve more❤️ you put so much more effort into your videos than many other youtubers, congratulations btw❤️ you are really beautuful as always and I love the third hairstyle but the first one was reallt cute too, it looked effortlessly but like at the same time that you used a little time on it❤️ also I love that you always respond back to us or atleast try, many other youtubers have completely stopped answering back after some time but you have always done it❤️ I haven't used heat in many months now and my hair grows back so fast so to avoid more breakage all together I will ask the hairstylist to blend it in after it has grown a little more so it looks more like a ombre or balyage when it has grown out because I can't keep on going back to the hairdresser really often to cover my roots, it is expensive and also damaging. I know they use olaplex but it won't avoid ALL damage because it is still bleach. Can you do "get ready with me" videos too, that would be so fun❤️

Shwe Yoon Eaint: Helpful thanks

This annoying girl right there: Does it work with braided hair? ^^ thanks for the tutorial !
