Pop quiz: how are you doing all of your hair lately? Proper now, my nine-month-old child Emiliano is in that “seize and tug the whole lot” part, so I’ve been searching for types that hold my hair out of attain.
For the previous 12 months, I’ve been a fan of claw clips (put on my hair like Rachel Inexperienced? Sure, please.) However these days, I’ve been seeing images of girls with smooth buns and romantic twists, and peeking out the highest is the elegant curve of a French pin. Listed here are a number of:
A tight twist, excellent for dinner dates.
A tidy bun for knocking round at dwelling or having pals over for snacks.
This comfortable, tousled twist with untucked ends jogs my memory of Julie Delpy in Earlier than Dawn.
Impressed, I attempted doing a twist. My hair was on day two of a salon blowout, so I wasn’t shocked when each strand stayed in place. In the event you, too, need a smooth twist, blow dry and easy out any waves with a straighter earlier than wrapping it up. (In the event you do a twist on air dried hair and have layers, a pair layers will poke out, leaving you with a reasonably tousled look.) Listed here are tutorials for lengthy and brief hair.
Subsequent I attempted a high knot. I noticed that, to make it final, you must hook the pin into the piece of the bun that’s above the bun tail, then weave the pin beneath the tail and straight into your bun. This system anchors your hair down. I actually like this TikTok video, which supplies step-by-step directions.
Lastly, hold the pin poking out. A part of the attraction is seeing the beautiful pin on the high, don’t you suppose? I’ve been loving the maintain of this Goal one, and I even have my eye on this cool tortoise quantity.
Ideas? Would put on a French pin (or have you ever)? I plan to put on these simple updos all fall.
