So the other day I had an idea that popped into my head and had to bring it to life. I never do much with my hair in terms of styling, my hair is naturally curly so I normally wear it down, throw it up or half up half down is always a go to!. Howeveeerrrrr, I do play around with hairstyles on my friends and family once in a while as I love looking at different looks and trends on instagram and trying them out. I get a lot of inspiration from Antonio Estrada, a hairstylist I came across on Instagram a little while ago. He uses a lot of different hair accessories and materials to create such cool looks. So I thought why not try something out myself and came up with this.
I was really happy with how it came out, it was exactly how I envisioned it. Sometimes it’s fun to play around, get creative and let your hands go and work there magic (even if it is just to sit in the house I mean at least you’ll look fab eating your lunch lol.) If you know me then you’ll know I’m always up for trying out different looks. This hairstyle was actually surprisingly easy to do. There’s nothing worse than spending ages on your hair or makeup and it not going as you planned and that’s definitely happened to me on more than one occasion. All I did was throw it up in a ponytail and braided it, I left some hair out at the front too as I don’t love my hair all slicked back. Then I kind of just winged it and started wrapping the string around the braid. Once I got to the end of my hair I then tied 3 pieces of string and braided that to create an illusion of my hair being longer (hair extensions would have probably helped but I don’t have any so made do with what I had.) What I love about this look is that I I literally used twine (string) which you can get from anywhere and created such a cool fierce look. So have a play around and if you try it out yourself tag me on Instagram, I would love to see :)
