Hey guys, I am so excited to share with you this beautiful
Twisted undone updo. I just love this hairstyle
and I thought that you guys would too and what is so great about it is it can be worn more sleek and
Formal or you can wear it more undone and boho you guys know how much I love that effortless appearance
But it's quite simple to do so let's go ahead and get started first I'm going to prep my hair with this light hold
gel from Herbal essences
I just use a pea-sized amount or rub it between my palms
And I like to smooth it down my hair just helps prevent Frizz gives me a little bit of hold and helps create some shine
Part your hair wherever you like I did a side part
And you'll want to grab about a one-inch size section of hair right at your part and at the front of your face
Since I have bangs and leaving them out, so I'm grabbing mine a little farther back
Once you have your first section you want to grab another 1 inch section
Just below that previous one don't worry about them being too perfect and if your hair is on the thinner side
Then just grab two inch sized sections instead with these two sections
We are going to create a french rope braid first step is take that bottom section
And you're going to bring it up and in front of that top section and you're going to bring that top section down
So we've crossed them over one another
Now to create the French portion of the rope braid super simple
We just want to add hair into that bottom section so grab about a one-inch size section of hair from the side of your face
Again doesn't have to be perfect and just join it into that bottom section
So again across that bottom section up and in front of that top section and just bring that top section down
so we want to repeat those same steps ensuring we're directing the braid towards the back of our head again grab A
One-Inch size section from the side of your face doesn't need to be perfect, and we're just going to join it into that bottom section
ensuring that it's completely
Sectioned off and then cross that bottom section up and in front of the top one and just that top
Section down and you just want to keep repeating those same steps and keep in mind the smaller sections
You grab the more detailed this hairstyle will come out so try not to rush
Once your rope braid has reached the area
Around your ear you just want to remember to direct the braid across the back of your head just to ensure that it's laying nice
And tight to your scalp, so continue
grabbing one-inch wide
sections from around the perimeter of your hairline as you move along your head as you continue to
The back of your head you want to ensure that your one-inch wide sections that you're grabbing are also
Including the hair that's hanging down from the crown of your head
Making sure that all of your hair is
Incorporated into this rope braid will ensure that it stays nice and tight and secure to your head I
Continued my braid all the way across the back of my head
But feel free to stop in the middle or even repeat the same steps on the other side of your head
And once you're done, you just want to secure it off with the hair elastic
To help the twists stand out we want to pancake them slightly which will make them appear thicker
Just use your index finger and thumb and gently pull on the tops and the bottoms of your twists
And I like to start at the top and work my way down
And I can't believe I'm saying this but you don't want to pancake them too much or else
The hairstyle will become too loose once you're happy with it
it should look similar to this and feel free to create whatever bun you like with your
Ponytail I decided to continue with the twist, so I just divided my hair into two equal sections
And then I wrapped one section around the other counterclockwise all the way to the ends of my ponytail
Once I reached the end
I just secured it with a hair elastic
And I like to create a little bun just to help keep my ends tucked away once secure
I'm just wrapping the twist counterclockwise
around my
ponytail and
I'm holding the bun in place with my left hand as I wrap and I just continue until I reached the end of my
Twist and then I just tucked the ends underneath my thumb to keep them hidden
Once it's wrapped I'm just securing it with a bunch of Bobby pins
I barely opened my Bobby pins while I'm sliding them into place
And I like to slide them in on Angles creating
Crosses which really helps your bobby pins stay secure my biggest tip is it's better to use
More Bobby pins grabbing less hair than trying to use less Bobby pins grabbing more hair because they'll just slide out
so there we have you guys that's how to recreate this twisted updo and
Don't be discouraged if you don't get it your first try because I definitely didn't either just keep
Practicing and I promise you'll get it
I'd love to hear what you thought and I'd also love to hear what type of updo you'd like to see next are you somebody
That prefers more sleek put together up dos. Do you like these braided updo or maybe you want something
That's more messier easier. Maybe more intricate let me know and I'll see what I can do also
I've been brainstorming like crazy to introduce some new content on my channel for you guys
I love doing hair tutorials, and I promise you that I will continue to do them
But I really want to share more personal side
I want to share my hobbies with you guys my interests with you guys because majority of my time is spent outdoors
Adventuring I love hiking biking the winter time I'm snowboarding

Introduce that into my channel whether it's with vlogs Routine videos get ready with me
