Half-ups are often overlooked, but I love them! This looks is almost more of a three-quarters up, as the majority of the hair is pulled up, which I think is a modern take. Here are two different ways to wear this low half-up: simply a ponytail or take it to the next level and add a braid. Both are fun ways to add variety to your hair routine!
Day 27: Friday, Feb. 27—Tucked Pony with Funky Accessory
This fun tucked pony can be done with or without an accessory, but I dig a funky piece thrown in the mix! You can find spiked ponys similar to this online, but I picked this one up at
Allure Salon on King Street. For a change, pull all of your hair back and away from your face (no part), and spray a light hairspray to keep it back. Collect hair to the mid-back of head and wrap a ponytail around, not pulling the pony all the way through, but leaving the ends poking out. Afterwards, add an accessory, if you have one! There’s a kewl art show (
Tom Stanley solo exhibit) at
The George Gallery on Bogard tonight!
Day 28: Saturday, Feb 28—Big Hair!
End the month with a bang—we're goin’ big tonight! Don’t be scared to tease your hair up, have fun, flirty, wild, bouncy big hair! Curl your hair with a small- or medium-sized curling iron (1” would be good), and give it a good spray. Taking a teasing brush or comb, start at the end of your strands and begin teasing your hair up. You can tease at the roots as well to give it volume. A bit of hairspray and you’re ready for a night on the town!
