Side-swept updo on a grey Sunday morning

Hello friends,

     Today was a grey, cold morning~ perfect for wearing my new winter dress and booties.  I washed my hair early this morning, and while it was still slightly damp I put it up in a side updo.  The side look seemed to go great with the high collar of my dress.
     Thank you for visiting my blog!  I love to share hairstyle pictures with you here and on Facebook.  Have a lovely day!

Short Ponytail

Hello my friends,

     I hope your week is off to a great start!  Today I fixed my hair in an easy short ponytail hairstyle using small hair clips.  It's nice to wear my hair in a style that is not quite a bun, but also not a long loose ponytail :-)

 

 

Gradual Buns

Hi everybody,

     Instagram can be a great source for hairstyle ideas!  I saw a friend post a hairstyle made of a series of buns, large to small.  I tried my own version of this look, and really like it.  I started out making a single coil of a cinnamon bun.  Then I moved on to make another bun, and another, and another, until I eventual ran out of hair.
     Thank you for coming to see my pictures!  I hope you have a terrific weekend.

 

Southern Cross Hairstyle

Hello friends,

     Happy Sunday :-)  Today I wanted to use the beautiful hairclips that I got as a gift from a friend in Germany.  I ended up using them as side accents to this hairstyle, and the overall effect reminded me of the Southern Cross which appears in the sky over my island <3
     To make this hairstyle, I basically made a series of small buns to one side of my head and pinned them in place with hairpins and bobby pins.  For the last section of hair, instead of making a bun I made a braid.  I took this braid and wrapped it up and around my row of buns, pinning it in place as I liked.  I added a jewel clip to one side to emphasize the side-swept look, then added the three star clips as accents on my smooth hair.
     This hairstyle lasts forever!  After a long, windblown day there is literally not a hair out of place.  I even contemplated sleeping on my side so I could wear my hair like this again tomorrow :-)
