Simple, Easy, Do-It-Yourself Hairstyle Updos : Updos & Hair Styling

Hi, my name is Claire Coleman. I'M a hair stylist, I'm going to show you a simple and easy updo that you can do yourself. First thing that we're gon na do is we're gon na do a diagonal section, starting just above the eyebrow, going back towards the crown, and you can just do this on whichever side, you naturally part your hair and then take a section from the end of the Part across and we're just going to lightly, tease that section just a little bit only about a one-inch section, a vertical section. We just want to get a little bit of lift so you're, going to spray your roof and then tease, and you want to tease from the bottom to the mid shaft of the hair, see we have a little bit of lift there and we're just going to Use our smoothing brush and just smooth over very lightly then run and gather the hair into a ponytail, and you don't want to make it too tight, since we just did put a little volume there with teasing. We want to keep that up so that you have a little bit of lift there and I like to keep a couple of pieces out in the front as well, but just smooth the sides in. If you do you make it too tight, then I can show you a little trick to get that release, go ahead and make your ponytail okay, and if it's too tight, you can just take a tail comb and just hold your ponytail and stick your into middle Of the hair, where you did your teasing and just kind of pull it loose, it'll just kind of help, you maintain the shape a little bit and then I'm just going to smooth out where I did my parting and then you're gon na take a little piece Of hair that you already have in your ponytail and just wrap it around to hide your ponytail elastic and then you're just going to secure that with a bobby pin. Here we go from the back and from the front my name is Claire Coleman, and I just showed you how to do a simple and easy updo that you could do yourself. You
