Hair Crush: Donedo

Is that hair beautiful or what? Okay! So, how do we get this gorgeous hair style?

• Wash, condition, detangle, moisturise and stretch out your hair (doesn't have to be 100% stretched)
• (On slightly damp to dry hair using product, if you wish) Put your hair in medium to large twists and either roll the ends up in perm rods or make cocoons at the ends by pulling down the twist gently, placing your index or index and middle finger about an inch above the hand being used to stretch the hair, folding your hair over your finger(s) once and rolling it round above your fingers, taking your fingers out, passing the excess hair through the hole and pushing downy he top of what you've created to temporarily hold it in place.
• Take down the perm rods, cocoons and twists and separate them then fluff them out (you could using an afro pick to pick them out).
• Get a head band or scarf around your head and move it up till all your hair is at the crown of your head. Fluff out your hair a bit more if you wish for it to look fuller.
• Lay down your edges with some product and/or brushing them down. And, voila!

You've got the look! You've got the look!

I love this undo! :)

Get the Look: Mindy McKnight

This is Mindy McKnight of Cute Girls Hairstyles. Now, I'm sure most of you have noticed that her hair's not curly. So, let me explain, I saw this do and I loved it and I know many naturally curly girls out there put their hair up buns so I thought that this would be an interesting twist instead of the regular bun.

• Start by sectioning your hair in two by parting your hair from ear to ear.
• Using sectioning clips, an ouchless band or something else, hold away the front section.
• (It may be easier to flip your hair over to do this bit) French-braid your hair from the nape of your neck up to the where you sectioned your hair and braid a few inches up (off the scalp) securing the french braid with an ouchless band.
• Untie the front section, smooth it down using a seamless comb or brush and gather the hair back and to the end of the French-braid holding it with that part in a ponytail using an ouchless band then take out the ouchless band used to secure the end of the french braid and run a comb, brush or your fingers through your pony tail.
• Put your hair up in a bun securing it with bobby pins
• For an even cuter twist, you could add a bow like Mindy did.

Voila! You have the look (.....only with curly hair......unless you straightened or blew it out, that is)
To spice this up a bit, a ribbon could have been added to the hair when making the french braid. For me, a shiny/glittery black or dark red ribbon would be perfect :)
