Everyone Kaleigh your friendly neighborhood hairstylist here and today we're doing some wedding hairstyles because fall in winter is kind of wedding time. Surprisingly, so, whether you're in the wedding or attending a wedding, we've got some hairstyles for you. For today, you have both myself and my medium / short hair and my sister Anna Laura and her long hair. I'M gon na be showing you how to do the hairstyles on my hair and then she's going to be doing them on her long hair and the benefit is that she's, not exactly the friendly neighborhood hairstylist she's a lot more like learning along with y'all? So I'm gon na help her out as she tries to recreate it. Hopefully, this will just be all the great tips for you, whether you have shorter or longer hair, and it will be easy to do on the day of we always want the easiest stuff to do, because wedding days are stressful enough anyway, am i right so that Being said, let's get into it: okay, so first things. First, we're gon na curl the hair, both Anna and I are curling the hair away from our face with a one-inch curling iron, which i think is just a good standard base for any formal up to or half updo and yeah. We have some voluminous pretty curls in. I think it's time to do this half updo. First, I shall demonstrate on my hair, basically we're gon na be taking three sections and twisting and pinning them, and it should all come together in a beautiful Huff. Updo. Let'S go ahead and say our prayer to the twisting gods and goddesses that this goes well. Alright, so first things: first, let's brush back the hair on top, because you want this crown area going back. That way, you get some volume. If you leave your hair parted to here, then you just have like a before your half updo and that's not as cute. Conversely, you also don't want to brush everything here, but cuz they end up what the also don't want that then you're, just gon na take like a 3/4 inch wide section right here at the crown of your head to get it all smooth and I'm just gon Na give this a light tease for once she says, light tease and she does light tease. Then I'm just gon na twist the section to the right a couple of times and pin up and into the twist you can choose to loosen this up before or after the bobby pins, whichever works best for you for extra hold on these, you can pin into The twist and then do one pin perpendicular to that so you're, getting the crisscross effect and you're holding it as securely as possible, pinning into the twist means that the Pens are gon na be hidden. The most and they're gon na stay really well and adding that crisscross one that just kind of lays under the rest of the hair is like your hairstyle insurance just gon na keep it there that much better and now we're gon na do two more of those. I'M gon na take a section on one side: I'm gon na start on my left and as always, I'm leaving some hair on my face, sweeping it back. I'M gon na give it just the lightest of teases smooth and then twist loosen and pin and I'll do the same thing on the other side, and there is your short to medium version of this hairstyle. It'S very quick and easy to do as always with a special occasion, practice first and then you can wear this to a wedding. You can be in a wedding, add some accessories into it. Whatever is cute, there's the Shorthair version. Now, let's have Aunt Laura, try it on her long hair and it will be here to help and I come in and help one of the things you were doing. If you were opening up the bobby pin to put it in okay and one of the things that did is more hair, which isn't the wrong thing. But it ends up where you could like see the bobby pin on top, which isn't a problem for this layer. But it will be a problem for the next ones. I would just have you actually keep the mouth of the bobby pin closed and push up, and in just like that, but yeah other than that you did great. Okay, let's keep going all right. This is looking good, so here's what I was saying before you did a really great job of matching these two sections up. Now it's drooping a little bit below this, and instead of picking this up, because I don't like that shape, I'm gon na loosen this up. So that they match and if it doesn't lay nicely down the way you want it to you just add in a little bobby pin some there we go so now we have this nice pretty line right here, and all that took was just loosening this up, so That it all flows together and there you know so basically you did everything right. All I did was just to like loosen things up in strategic places, and it might help to have a friend would definitely helped have a mirror, and it would be pretty easy to do that yourself. Anna'S doing this blind by the way which I've been doing forever. So it doesn't feel weird to me, but that's a lot you're doing great all right. Here we go with the other side, all right there we go. I'M gon na come in and help you finesse it cuz. You don't have it here. So first thing I'm gon na do is finesse up here, a little bit like we did on the other side, go we're just tucking and pinning, and then part of this horn is this little bubble right here. So we're just gon na push that against the head. We'Re gon na pull out some over here to help balance out the volume, so part of what was happening is that this section was coming up, and so it was creating a bubble right here, so by flattening it down and letting it lay as it naturally would. If you were to sweep it back, that keeps it from having that bubble effect, and it makes it look really pretty, as it goes back into the twist. So to make this twist look a little bit bigger. I just kind of untwisted it a little and I'm hitting that and then I'm just running my fingers lightly through the ends here and then on long hair. One thing you can add in is picking up the tails of what we twisted back and lightly teasing, underneath just down the length of the hair, this kind of helps to Josh up the curls and shows up the volume. So you have this kind of really voluminous cascade coming down from the twist, which is always a really pretty look, but there you go, you did it and that's the long hair version it's very similar to the short hair. But you do have the extra cascading waves, which are very pretty and have kind of like a Blake Lively, look which we love and now it's time for some braids. Yes, definitely for the short hair option, which would still work on long hair. We'Re going to do this half a pack down and then Anna Laura's going to show you how to take it into a side braid, so you're, gon na start off with a side part. I am parted as far to the side as I want to go and then you're going to do a lace. French braid, starting from your hairline, and sweeping back once you've reached about two to three inches behind your ear. You'Re gon na switch to braiding normally and then hold your place with a bobby pin now, on the other side, you're going to sweep back kind of an equal section of hair and twist it loosely underneath the crown of your head and pin it in place by Pinning into the twist a couple of times and loosening, if you want to, and now we're actually almost done, first we're gon na pull this braid apart, which I guess you could do before you twist. The hair. If you want to, I was just getting excited, and once you have, the braid is pulled apart as you like. You can sweep the end of the braid underneath the twist and pin that in place a couple of times pinning up and into the brain and ice. Hairstyles done and there you go quick, easy short hair version which bonus points could be really cute on a flower girl, I'm just saying and now for the long hair version you're going to start the exact same way with that French lace, braid going back from your Hairline and then braiding a couple edges normally and then this time you can secure your hair with an elastic now you're gon na pull that braid apart to get it as fluffy as you want, and then we're moving on to the side braid. Now, if you have any shorter layers, you're gon na want to do that same kind of sweep and pin that I did for the half up half down hairstyle, just to make sure everything's gon na stay in place all day or if you have pretty much one Length long hair, you can skip it, but essentially all you have left to do is bring all the hair together on one side and braid. It all the way down, secure it with an elastic and then loosen it up and you're done. I'M just gon na open up this part and then do it. I think you did a great job. Do you have a headband? I do. Let me go find something for you. There you go, it's really pretty and that's the long hair version again so so easy. So so simple - and it looks great, I think it's time for a full-on up dude, even with my somewhat shorter hair. So for this we're gon na be creating two ponytails for the first one you're going to sweep back most of your hair and then leave it. Looped on the last rotation and kind of a little shenyang and then you're going to pull everything else into another ponytail. Just underneath that shenyang, that's the hairstyle, it's getting! Okay! So now you might look a little nuts or a little bit like kind of an off ray of Star Wars. Cosplay one of the two. What you're first gon na do is pull apart the hair up here to loosen it all up. So that's the top bit of the hair sorted now. Let'S finish this bun situation, because this is looking really funny right now. The first thing you're gon na do is put an elastic on the very end of the ponytail we've left out. Yes, the very end of it. It'S a look now. This is where the fun part comes in you're, going to wrap this funny little ponytail around the top of the chignon and pin that in place now it still looks a little crazy, because the final thing we have to do is pull it apart. Lots and lots of just little tiny, pulling motions with your thumb and forefinger to get it looking the way that you want it to you might need to pin and reposition certain pieces. If any flyaways come out, you might need to pin those as well, but in general fluffing this out is going to give it a much more voluminous, textured style look and then, if you want, you can just add in an accessory and you're done and there you Go that is the short medium version of this hairstyle. It'S a great way to get the look of an updo, even if you don't have a lot of hair. So if you need to match the rest of a bridal party or you just want your hair out of the way, it's a great option now for the long hair version it's actually very similar, but for the long hair you're just gon na pull all of your Hair into one ponytail and leave it looped on the last rotation, then, with all the ends you have left you're going to secure those at the end with an elastic now before we finish the bun you're going to loosen up around the top and any pieces around. Your face, just like I did with the short hair, because obviously we want everything, nice and floaty, and beautiful and textured, then, with our funny little ponytail, that we have left you're, also going to cross that over the top of the chignon and pin that in place. Pull everything apart, pin as you go, and it's done one that definitely helps if you have a mirror and or a friend I will be your friend. So, basically, at this point you can kind of live the bobby-pins guide you you can stick them in and then put the hair where you want it and stick it in to the PI tail and there you go. There is the wedding, hair inspo.

Rebecca Blashock: Pretty in Pink! Loved it! I might try the first one first! Thanks! :D

Genevieve Reed: You ladies are both so pretty and your hair looks great too.
Kirsten Heyligers: Love it! I really enjoy that you let Anna do it as well and then give tips, like the not opening of the bobby pins. Question out of lack of knowledge; why the light tease before the twists from the side (first hairstyle)? Does it add more grip or is it something else?

Aaliyah Hernandez: My friend is getting married in 2 week and I’m planning on doing the first hairstyle. I thought it was super cute and simple. My hair is same length as yours so I hope it comes out at least half as good
Heather Garrett: So helpful for you to troubleshoot, and then help correct, the errors us novices would make. Love this! Thank you!
Patricia Snyder: Loving that you are showing us how to fix the hair styles. That is ALWAYS something I struggle with and instead of tweaking it some I end up thinking I have to start all over.
Carolyn Yangas: Talk about timing, Bridesmaid tomorrow in my cousin's wedding. using some of your old videos as inspo for the other bridesmaid's hair i'm doing and needed one for myself lol i love seeing Anna Laura do these styles, my skills are somewhere in between yours and hers.
The Kazoo Queen: Can you please please do more curly hairstyles with your wig? You have such beautiful ideas but most of them don't turn out right on my natural texture :(
Kari Henry: I'm going to a wedding next month so I'm saving this video and going back to it!
Kim Kelly: You two are soooo cute!❤
