Quick Easy Updos!

Hey guys welcome back, so today's video is going to be on these three extremely easy styles. These are great styles, for either a holiday party or just for an everyday wear. These are great styles, for when you're running late. Each look took me about five minutes to complete and I know that they look really intricate and difficult, but I promise you that the hair challenged can achieve these looks. So if you guys want to see these three easy styles, then please keep watching so the hair prep for all three styles are the same. You can either braid your hair to get some texture and let it get crimpy overnight or you can curl it. I'M just gon na curl mine, I'm using the new me classic curling wand. This is the 1 inch wand, I'm really not paying attention to how tight the curls are. How many I put in I literally just want a few bends in my hair. I am curling. My hair, all the way from my face, though so when I put it up, it sweeps back effortlessly and you guys know me. I love my volume, so I am back combing, my hair, I'm starting at the crown portion of my head and then also working my way up to the front pieces as well. Just make sure I have some nice even volume going throughout, but it is a personal preference whatever you prefer, if you prefer more of a a flat. Sleek look go for that. If you prefer volume, then backcomb the heck out of your hair, like I am once I'm all back home, I just kind of smooth everything out and make sure that it is updo ready. Now that we're all prepped, let's go for look number one. This is one of my favorite looks it's literally just a ponytail, but it kind of has a little bit of sass to it with some twisty pieces in the back. It looks really intricate, but it took minimal effort, which is my kind of hairstyle to start things off. I'M going to section my hair into three separate sections: I'm going to grab two sections in the front and one section in the back. So I'm kind of grabbing right from where my crown of my head is and pulling it down to the top of my ear, and that will be our first section. The second section will be the same on the opposite side and then the back part we're gon na pull into a classic ponytail, leaving those two front sections out: I'm gon na gently tug on the top of my ponytail and give myself a little bit more volume. A little bit more texture if you're going for a sleek look, you can skip this, but I personally like a little bit of texture and messiness to my ponytails. Now that we have the back of the ponytail all set and ready and taking one of the sexes and just kind of combing it back to you know my liking, get all those little stray hairs back. I did pull a couple hairs out in front. Just give me a little face framing, but I am doing the same thing on the other side and I'm just kind of working that back and making sure like the shape in the front before I secure it in the back time for the securing portion, I'm literally Just going to tie a knot in the back of my head with the two loose front: sections: isn't that just super easy just tie a classic knot and whatever remains I'm going to tuck that underneath my ponytail and bobby pin that down to secure than that by The way please ignore the purple on my hand. I was definitely getting into some makeup swatches before this video and you know kind of kind of carried away and forgot to wash it off properly, but anyways. I'M gon na go ahead and pull on the knot to make it a little bit more loose a little bit more effortless. Looking so you're gon na be left with a weird little rat tail hanging down from your ponytail, where we tied the knot so take whatever hair is remaining down from that bobby pin and just give a little twist and wrap it right around your ponytail right. Underneath the knot, and once you reach the very end of the hair, just bobby, pin that down and you're good as new, no rat tail. To finish things off, I like to give my ponytail a little back combing and make it look a little bit bigger. A little bit Messier and there you go the finished, look now moving on to one of my favorite updos, you guys this is so versatile. You can really wear it to like a formal event and make it really dressy and classy, or you can wear it to work and have it be super casual. It'S totally up to you. This look a versatile, yet classic we're gon na start. This look out the same exact way that we did with the ponytail two sections in the front, one in the back and the ponytail alls, I'm doing is just grabbing the ponytail and wrapping it around in a donut bun. So I did get the 20 tail a little bit of a twist and I'm wrapping it into kind of like a cinnamon bun shape. Once I got my little cinnamon bun place where I wanted to be, I'm gon na pin that into place. I did leave these sections in the front alone: they're just kind of chillin, there again same technique with a ponytail, I'm going to be taking the two front sections and simply just tying them into a knot above bun once I got my not tired, I'm just kind Of loosening it up a little bit pulling out some of the hairs to make it more. You know flowy and natural-looking. I'M gon na take whatever is remaining and hanging on the sides of my bun from the knot and pin that together underneath my bun once again, we're gon na have a cute little rat tail, so we've got to hide him. We'Ve got to kind of twist him up and pop him right underneath the bun. So nobody knows that we've had a rat tail. That was so easy. Wasn'T it like it looks so intricate and formal, but it's really just a donut bun in a knot really so there you go you're welcome! Speaking of knot. We have this really cool updo. To finish this. Video off with this is one of my favorite updos. It looks so intricate and difficult, but I promise you it's not so to begin this look I have all my hair down. It is back home, I'm gon na grab the crown portion of my hair and just kind of pin it up. This is gon na help. Maintain the volume, while we're adding some knots and some texture to our hair, it's gon na keep our updo uh voluminous all throughout the night. I did leave the front two sections out. I did just grab a little pinch in the back of my head. Here'S where things get familiar, I'm gon na grab the front two sections like we did it in the first two tutorials and I'm just gon na tie those in a knot. I just separated that from the rest of my hair and I'm tying a knot, so it covers up the bobby pins and then I'm gon na just pin that knot into place, leaving the hair hanging below the knot. Now I'm gon na grab two more sections, including the hair that we just kind of left hanging there from the knot and I'm gon na leave a little section toward the bottom out. That'S fine just keep him aside and just tie another knot right underneath the knot that we previously tied once you've got that in place, go ahead and pin that so it doesn't move on you we're gon na take whatever hair is remaining down and split that right. In half and tie that into a knot as well, so it's really just three knots: I'm gon na pin that last knot into place as well, so we have some hair remaining down. I'M gon na combine those two sections and do another little donut bun that we did in the last tutorial and just kind of pin that wherever it fits, so you can do it on the side. You can do it right underneath the knots whatever works best for you, it's kind of like one of those things that you know it's different for everybody's hair type. I have a lot of hair, so I kind of put my knot to the side. A little bit. Go ahead and pin down any loose pieces that are sticking out that look weird and we're finished. That is the final look, so that is it for this video guys. I hope you enjoyed it. Hopefully you got some super easy styles out of this video to wear.
