3. Loose Curly Bun Hairstyle
Brush through the length to remove any knots or tangles. Apply a heat protectant and then curl the upper sections of your hair. When all of it is curled, gather and tie the bottom half of the hair sections into a bun. This way the curly texture will also be visible. Add hair accessories if you like and remove a few curly flicks in front to frame the face.
4. Sleek Bun Hair
Gather hair length in your hands at the back of the neck. Ensure that there are no flyaways or loose hair strands out of place. You can do this by applying a smoothening hair product and straightening hair before you begin hairstyling. With the full hair length, wrap it around itself in a bun tie in place with a hair tie. Wrap floral hair accessories or fresh flowers around the bun.
5. Floral Braided Ponytail
Gather length in your hand and start braiding hair from the hair line until all is completely plaited. Select braid of your choice. We recommend a dainty French braid. Remove a few strands around the front and add floral hair pins in between sections of the braid.
6. Half Twisted Ponytail
Gather hair at the back of the crown and divide it into 2 sections on either side of the head. Twist each section around itself until it meets at the centre of the crown. Add a stone studded hair pin to hold the sections in place. Straighten or curl the remaining hair sections at the base of the head.
7. Curly Ponytail With Hair Band
Sleekly gather all the hair length at the side of the head and tie in a low ponytail at the side of the face. Use a heat protectant and curl the length of the ponytail. Place headband along the crown of the hair.
