hey guys welcome to my channel and the first video of my new series hashtag
hair tutorial Tuesday where I'll be posting a new hair tutorial every
Tuesday I'm really excited about this and I'll have more information at the
end of this video as well as on my blog but today's hairstyle is this really
pretty feminine half-up half-down twisted hairstyle I got inspired off a
picture that I saw on Pinterest and I wanted to try to recreate it it's
actually a lot simpler than you might think so let's go ahead and get started
For this tutorial all you're going to need are about 4 to 5 clear elastics
depending on your hair's length and a quick tip if you're going to practice
this hairstyle before wearing it out I suggest using larger elastics they're
a lot less damaging on your hair at least that's what I do start by throwing all
of your hair behind your shoulders and then you'll want to grab the hair at the
side of your head to create a half-up half-down ponytail easiest way is to
just go to the back of your part and draw a line straight down to the top of
your ear then at this point I like to take out small pieces to frame my face
and cover my ears to give me that boho look and then with those two sections
you just want to twist them a couple of times away from your face nice and
loosely and then to secure them at the back of your head with the hair elastic
so now that we've done that step you want to create a Topsy tail so just grab
your ponytail and flip it up and through just to give this hairstyle more of a
tighter twist and then to give this hairstyle that wow factor you want to
pull apart twists and make them more voluminous anchor the ponytail with one
hand and then use your index finger and thumb on your other to grab small
sections of hair at the top of the twist and just gently pull them upwards for
this look I wanted most of my volume to be in the center at the Topsy tail but
feel free to play around with it now for the rest of the hairstyle we want to
create Topsy tail pull throughs grab about one-inch sections from the side
of your ponytail and try to grab them from the top
layer of hair then bring those sections in front of that first ponytail and
secure the hair elastic I usually wrap mine around two times so that first
ponytail is going through that new ponytail and that's what creates the
pull through and now with our new ponytail we want to create another Topsy
tail so just flip it up and pull it through tighten it up a little bit and
then begin pancaking by pulling on small pieces and this time pulling them up and
outwards almost like a fan to make them more of luminous and give it that
effortless appearance don't be shy with this I think the more
voluminous the better to create our second pull through grab that first
ponytail we created that's underneath and you want to divide that into two
equal pieces and then I'm going to grab one inch sections from the sides of the
ponytail to make it thicker and the trick with this is the less perfect the
better then bring those two sections in front ever previous ponytail to create
our second pull through and secure it with the hair elastic and then create a
topsy-tail with that pull through and be sure to pancake it to help fake that
voluminous appearance repeat the pattern as many times as you like down your hair
and then grab the ponytail that is behind your section divide it into two
and bring those pieces in front of our previous ponytail secure with a hair
elastic and create Topsy tail and then the best parts pancake the twist so I do
this for a total of four Topsy tails and three pull through so there you have you
guys that's how easy it is to achieve this
really pretty half-up half-down twisted chunky hairstyle I just love how girly
