Hi my name is Lauren and on behalf of Expert Village I'm here to discuss short strait hairstyles.
A fun way to keep your hair away from your face, and also something that's a little bit
more interesting and fun, and literally more unique is to actually create knots in your
hair. If she wanted to piece back a lot of different pieces, she can lift her hair into
small sections. Give a little bit of spray and then smooth and you're literally going
to actually tie a knot in the hair. Then, take a pin, and pin your knot down. You can
do this either towards the front of the hair or the back. You can do it in larger sections
if you wanted to in the back and make larger knots. The larger the section the larger the
knot. And you go through and pin it down. Now with most hair textures you don't have
to worry about the knots actually staying. Our hair tends to let go of those knots and
open themselves up, like this one just did. So they won't always hold. It's important
to knot them and get the pin actually where the knot is held and are truly formed so that
way they'll stay in. It's kind of an interesting way just to piece your hair back a little
bit different from what some people would do. You can also integrate that with the barrel
curls. With the twist that we just showed in the previous clips. So that way you can
kind of take all the different singular ideas and piece them together in order to create
your own fresh style. So again if you wanted to form a little headband, piece the hair,
wrap it around your fingers, pull it into that knot, and then piece it out. Most people,
or at least myself, would use these knots if I had a ponytail. If you want to kind of
dress up a ponytail, you could put the hair into a ponytail itself, whether it be a side
ponytail. Use a larger rubber band in order to secure it, and then actually take your
ponytail and tie the individual pieces into knots and then place them going around the
ponytail. So you've created an easy and simple yet very unique updo. That'll take you three
or four minutes or less.
