hey guys welcome back to my channel
today i want to share with you three
really simple and beautiful hairstyles
that are perfect for spring with the
warmer weather soon approaching not soon
enough these a half up half down
hairstyles are definitely my favorite
go-to these are especially perfect if
you're somebody like me who often wears
their hair down it's just such an easy
way to kind of swoop your hair up out of
your face and still have it look really
pretty and girly and you guys will have to
let me know in the comments down below
which look was your favorite and where
you plan on wearing it so let's get
started all you'll need for all three of
these hairstyles is one clear elastic
and you also want a bunch of bobby pins
on hand already went ahead curled my
hair I used a 32 millimeter barrel and I
just curled all of my hair away from my
face and I held each section for about
10 seconds I did this to give my hair a
more a tasselled flowy elegant lock which i
think is really perfect for spring and
summer and then i went ahead and i
clipped in my lexy hair extensions just
to help add some thickness and fullness
to the curls since we're going to be
clipping half of it up and i use two
four clip wefts and what i did is i clipped
one on top of the other because since
this is a half-up half-down hairstyle
you want to make sure that you're
clipping them below your ears so that
they are hidden i also added a one clip weft
to each side of my head just a
couple inches below my part just so that
when i gather the hair for these
hairstyles they are hidden but will add
extra volume to the buns and twists
that i create for this first hairstyle
let's call it the double knot part your
hair is normal and grab large sections
on each side of your face you'll want to
cross these two sections behind the back
of your head and then imagine the first
step of tying your shoe so you want to
cross one section over the other one and
pull it through then you want to tie
sections loosely around one another one
more time to form the knot
and then I used a couple bobby pins to
secure the underside of the knot to your
head to hold it into place don't worry
if the bobby pins are showing because
the next step will help with that so you
can leave your double knot as it is but I
prefer going in with my index finger and
thumb and just gently tugging on the
sides of the knot to help create a fuller
thicker appearance and then secure it
with a couple more bobby pins to hold it
into place and there we have it our
chunky double knot I think this looks so
pretty with the added curls and once you
get the hang of it it's super quick next
we have the chunky donut bun let your
part naturally fall and then grab large
sections from both sides of your face
and then this time secure them with
a hair elastic to create a ponytail on
the back of your head begin twisting the
ponytail we created in a
clockwise motion until it's completely
twisted from the base all the way to the
tip it should look a little something
like this wrap the twists around itself
in a counterclockwise direction
until it's completely wrapped if your
hairs on the longer side you just want
to wrap the tail end underneath the bun
then you should be left with a donut
shape so just make sure that you secure
the end of the twists underneath your
bun with some bobby pins so that they
are hidden you could leave it like this
but I want a more effortless appearance
so using my index finger and thumb I
just gently pulled on the sides of the
bun to give it a fuller thicker
appearance don't worry if it becomes too
undone just secure the loose ends and
the underside of the bun with more bobby
pins to hold everything in place and
there we have it quick and easy and i
think this hairstyle is so cute with
off-the-shoulder tops and summer dresses
and lastly the cool girl top not this
trend is everywhere so gather all the
hair on the top of your head making sure
not to collect too far back because you
want this top not to sit upright on the
top
your head once you have your section
secure it with a hair elastic then to
help add texture to this ponytail I'm
just using my fingers like a claw to
back comb it for even more textured look
go ahead and use a teasing comb and then
begin wrapping the ponytail around
itself in a clockwise motion on the top
of your head and once you reach the end
tuck the ends under the bun and secure
them into place with a bobby pin what I
love about topknots is they're always
different they don't need to be perfect
and you can't really mess them up so
just start gently pulling on the sides a
bit by bit more effortless to better and
don't be afraid to make it bigger and
messier than what you're used to because
I think that that's what really makes a
topknot stand out if you pull too much
just bobby pin any loose ends to the
underside of the top knot and there we
have it an effortless top knot in
seconds there's no one way to create a
top knot so experiment it and see what
you like so there we have you guys and
those are my three favorite half of half
down hairstyles that I think are so
perfect for spring I just love how
simple and easy yet beautiful these
hairstyles are I think they are so
perfect if you're on the go just keep a
bobby pin and some elastics in your
purse and if you're getting hot you can
just swoop your hair off your face but I
think it's also so great about these is
they don't have to be perfect so if you
don't have a mirror it's no problem yeah
let me know which one was your favorite
I think it's a toss between the chunky
donut one and the top now I can't decide
but as always thank you guys so much for
watching if you did enjoy this video it
don't forget to give it a thumbs up and
I'll talk to you guys in my next one bye
