Guest Post: A LOVEly hairstyle.

I would like to introduce you to, Nellie. She's a sweet little gal over at, "This Little Blog of Mine." She wanted to show us a super cute way to fix our hair. Here's what she had to share.

Recently, I discovered the most amazing hairstyle for long hair.

It can easily be done with any elastic headband.

I love it because it looks super fancy, bit it is really simple. It would be perfect for a date night, a work day, or even a relaxing day of shopping!!


Step 1:
Put an elastic headband on over top of your hair. Any stretchy headband will work. 


TIP: make a little ‘puff’ on the back of your head by lifting up the top layer and back combing it a little bit before you put on the head band. I didn’t do that for this tutorial….but this style looks pretty when I remember to do that....I didn't do it today because I had my hair up all day at school, and I took these photos around 4:30 pm...

Step 2: Wrap a length of hair from the front of your face around and through the headband like this:

**This style would look pretty just having a few of the front strands wrapped around the headband.
Step 3: Repeat with the rest of your hair, wrapping small sections through the headband. So easy!


Step 4: When you get most of your hair wrapped, take the little ‘pony tail’ section and push it around and into the  rolls.  

Tuck in any loose ends.  


Step 5: Pull down some sections from the front for face framing.


You can wrap your head in this headband style one day or night
(slightly damp is even better) and the next day you will have long
ringlet curls!


 Go ahead and try it with all of your elastic headbands to find the one that is most comfortable for you!!

 


You could even accessorize with a little flower or bow tucked into one side for spring.

Thanks so much for sharing with us, Nellie!!!! 
Ya'll stop by her blog and show her some love!

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
