She says that the hairstyles are easy to master and that if she can do it, we can do it too.

How To Style a Beehive. I'm so excited to share this hair tutorial! Beehives can be intimidating, but they are actually pretty simple to style when you have the right supplies. The first time I tried this technique was in this video shoot and I've been a believer ever since. Here's what you'll need: A bath loofa (any color), A piece of fabric that matches your hair color (just large enough to cover your loofa), a rubber band, bobby pins and hair spray (I use Got2b Glued Step 1: Cover a bath loofa in a solid fabric that matches your hair color.

Step 2: Pull one small section of hair forward (leave unteased). Gather a second 1-2 inch section, spray and back-comb it. Step 3: Add the loofa to your hair. Step 4: Pull pieces from the sides of the hair back to cover the sides of the bump. Step 5: Choose to pull the back of the hair up or leave it down (a la Amy Whinehouse). A few tips: If you have shorter hair use just the fabric (tied in a big knot/ball) and skip the loofa. Enjoy your new beehive! XO. ...love Maegan: hair tutorials Fashion+Home+Lifestyle.

Voluminous Kim Kardashian Curls: How To. Tricks + Treats: Cascade Braid with Sarah Lockhart. Hello, dear readers! This is Sarah from Sweetestnest, and I could not be more excited to add a style post to Elsie's parade of Tricks + Treats! I think that braids are one of the most versatile and easy hairstyles to wear during Autumn. They are textured and seemingly unintentional, or smoothed and polished. Today, I'm sharing the cascade/waterfall braid with you. I think it's really easy to do on yourself, and others, and you can switch it up a bit to match your day's style. We decided to use it for a halo shape! Step One: Begin with a standard 3 strand braid. Step Two: After 3 or 4 weaves, drop a strand. It really is that easy!

* If you pull at strands as you go, you can get an even more defined braid shape (like Elsie's)! Thanks, Sarah! Ps... here are a few sneak peeks from our shop today! ...love Maegan: Pretty Side French Braid low Updo Hair Tutorial Fashion+Home+Lifestyle. I wore a more relaxed version of this hair style in an outfit post in June of 2009 but for reasons unbeknownst to me, I never did a tutorial for it.

Recently though, a few of my lovely readers have asked for it …so here it is. Enjoy! If you can’t see the video go to: Pretty Side French Braid Updo * * * it would be so pretty with flowers pinned in * * * * . . . wearing the braid out . . . . . . and a few days ago, I wore it more casually, with straight hair . . . My bro took these last four the other day …the ones above these four, I took …from the reflection in the mirror, which didn’t turn out as fantastic, for obvious reasons. Have Fun!

I’m not the originator of this hair style but I’ve gotten so many requests for it, I thought I’d give it a go for you. I don’t know what it’s called either so I haven’t researched it and/or found any other tutorials for it …thus, this is my version of it, and I’ve dubbed it the Partial French Braid w/ Cascading Hair.

The photos I’ve seen online show the braid a little more straight across the back of the head and mine sort of braids at an angle, similar to my side/low french braid up-do. I’m sure this is 100% easier to do on someone else’s hair than your own but it goes pretty quickly once you get the hang of it …I mean, it’s my shortest hair video tutorial to date. That’s gotta mean something, right Enjoy. Note: Apologies in advance for the yelling of “NOOOO” towards the end, where I momentarily fear I’m going to lose my entire braid and have to start over.

How To Style Maiden Braids. Last month I did a makeover story with Kelsie and had many requests for a maiden braid tutorial. Yesterday she came in and we photographed these simple step by steps. Kelsie has extremely long and thick hair, but anyone with shoulder length or longer can do these braids (see my photo below for an example). Steps 1-2: Braid two strands on each side of a center part. Steps 3-5: Wrap braids around the crown of your head and pin in place with one pin each.

Step 6: Arrange braids so that they cover the front of your head like a headband. Pin into place more securely until you feel comfortable. Steps 7-8: Pull the rest of the hair into a ponytail and pin it into a cute messy bun. Step 9: Add final pins and spray.
