New Hair-do

Hello Sweetsies!
Hope everyone had a lovely weekend.
Our task today in the 21 Day Challenge is to create a new hair-do.
I do like to change my hair styles up and experiment with different looks so, this was a fun challenge for me.

I have been wanting to try the faux bob for awhile now. 
 I looked up a few youtube video's to see how it was done. 
 Wow, so easy!! 
 Why hadn't I tried this earlier?!
I wore this cute little summer dress to add to the casual tousled appeal of the hair style.
I have worn this dress before but didn't belt it. 
 It gives the dress a totally different vibe.

How do you create this hairstyle you ask??? 
 Just curl your hair all over then start with sections in the back pinning them under and work your way around both sides of your hair. 
You can leave as much or as little out on the sides as you would like.
  I did re-curl the left out bits when I was finished to assure that they stayed curled through out the day.
  Shower your head with hairspray and voila... a cut new look.

It actually was a little jarring when I would pass a mirror or window and it looked like I actually did have shorter hair.
I will definitely be working this hairstyle again!

Do you keep your hair the same always??? 
 Be adventurous. 
 Break out the curling iron or straightening iron.
  Sweep it up or back. 
 You will love the unexpectedness of it!!

Impressive! I wonder if that would work on me -- I don't have short layers near my face to frame it. It looks great on you!

Natalie said...

Oooh, I love it!  (Both the hairstyle AND the fun and colorful dress!).

Tracy said...

I've always wanted to do try this hairstyle too! Can you send me the video that you liked?

You look so super duper cute!

I love the faux bob...it's the best way to pretend you have short hair without actually having to cut it. Genius! 

Kayla said...

Oh wow, this is so cool! I hadn't even thought to try something like that. It's on my list now!

I love the faux bob- I bore easily when it comes to my hair so I should try this instead of chopping it off and then regretting it later! LOVE the dress- beautiful colours on you!
