Peculiarities
Evening hairstyles should be chosen taking into account the length of the hair, the shape of the face, the general image and the event you are going to. Accessories deserve no less attention, since a spectacular decoration on the simplest smooth beam can create a stunning effect.
An evening hairstyle differs from the usual styling primarily in its more complex and artistic execution, it requires certain skills from the performer.
Depending on the nature of the event, curls can become your main decoration. with an abundance of glitter or a laconic sleek hairstyle with a stylish accessory. Official events require restraint, parties - extravagance and creativity.
Hair length is also one of the key points in choosing a hairstyle. For owners of short hair, it is a little more difficult to make a choice, since it is limited: the hair either fits perfectly hair to hair, emphasizing the natural beauty and stylish haircut, or a creative mess is created with the selection of individual strands. In this case, more attention is paid to the choice of accessories: tiaras, headbands, hairpins, fresh flowers, bows.
Ladies with long hair are practically unlimited in their choice of hairstyles. Curls, bunches (preferably low), various options with weaving are suitable for them. For happy owners of healthy and beautiful hair, it is enough to give perfect smoothness or emphasize the naturalness of curly curls.
What you shouldn't do if your hair is thick and heavy is to lift it up. Since it will be difficult to hold the entire mass of hair, and the neck will get tired very quickly.
The best position is for girls with medium length hair, as there are many hairstyles for them. High beams and openwork braids look especially impressive.
There are several general guidelines for choosing a hairstyle for a dress:
- long curls are not suitable for a dress with an open back, as they will cover the main spicy detail - a beautiful bend;
- dresses with a high neck go well with a high hairstyle and a smooth bun;
- V-neckline looks harmonious with loose hair, curls;
- Off-the-shoulder dresses look equally good with tucked up and loose hair.
Once again, we note that an evening hairstyle takes skill and time to look really smart. Among the styling offered below, you can definitely choose one that you can easily do at home in a matter of minutes.
Weave styling
Festive braided hairstyles always look great, while there are completely simple options for the evening that require a minimum of time, effort and accessories.
Important: so that the braided hairstyle fits perfectly, it is better to wash your hair the day before, then the hair will not be unnecessarily fluffy.
Let's start with a simple yet very effective hairstyle that works for long to medium hair - a bun with French braids.
- Curl the curls and fix them with mousse.
- Divide the hair into three unequal parts: the side is smaller, the bulk is in the center.
- Collect the central part in a tail, which is turned into a bundle and fixed with hairpins.
- Braid one side strand into a pigtail and fasten it into a bun. Carry out a similar procedure on the second side.
- To complete the romantic look, pull out a few strands from the bunch and sprinkle with varnish.
The side braid looks great on long hair:
- comb your hair to one side;
- start weaving from the long part of the parting, adding to each strand along the adjacent part, continuing to the ear;
- from the auricle to the back of the head, weave in the French way, adding the upper strands;
- collect the tail, and then finish the braid in the classical way;
- add delicacy to the hairstyle by slightly stretching all the strands of the braid and securing them with varnish.
Another version of the side braid is shown in the photo. It is woven easier, but it looks no less attractive due to the combination of a thin braid and a more voluminous one.
A very simple weaving - a waterfall - looks amazing. Thin strands are evenly "released" into the side braid.
A simple yet eye-catching hairstyle that will make the owners of blonde hair look like the famous Mother of Dragons - Daenerys. We are talking about loose hair framed by two braids:
- small strands are separated from both sides, which are braided into pigtails;
- if you have more time and experience, one braid is woven diagonally from one ear to the other;
- fasten the braids at the back;
- the remaining hair can be twisted, braided, or left unchanged.
A braid woven into a braid is an original solution for an unofficial holiday.For this hairstyle, the hair is divided into classic 3 strands, while the middle one is braided into a thin braid. Then a regular braid is woven. For decoration, you can use unusual hairpins, hairpins with pebbles or fresh flowers.
When choosing an evening hairstyle with braiding, remember that the regrown hair roots should not be visible. This will give an untidy look and nullify all efforts. The only exception may be a youth costume party, where non-standard is only welcomed.
There are a huge number of ideas with weaving. Guided by the advice of stylists and your own imagination, you can create a real masterpiece at home.
Ponytail hairstyles
Everyone's favorite ponytail can quickly go from a housewife's hairstyle to an elegant style. Pay attention to the simplest and easiest ways to make a memorable hairstyle for a holiday.
Twisted tail:
- straighten hair;
- comb part of the hair on the right side to the left and fix it with hairpins, as shown in the photo;
- twist the hair roller on the parietal part, secure;
- collect hair below in a ponytail, leaving a thin strand;
- wrap the base of the tail with this strand, fix it with a hairpin.
The Greek knot looks beautiful and incredibly simple:
- separate thin strands on both sides and fasten with an elastic band;
- Divide the rest of the hair in half;
- turn each part one by one onto the resulting rim of thin strands;
- gently tighten and straighten the resulting roller, fasten the tail with an elastic band from a thin strand.
The Greek knot can be made even easier and faster if it is not tight to collect the low tail, pull the elastic from the head. Divide the strands into two parts with your hands, and drag the tail into the hole. Straighten the formed rollers, straighten the tail. Continuing to stretch the ponytail until you have a solid roller will give you a cocktail party hairstyle. Light carelessness and disheveledness will add style and completeness to the image.
Based on the Greek knot, you can make another version of the evening hairstyle with collected hair. A distinctive feature of such a double Greek knot is the twofold repetition of the twisted tail, after which the remaining hair is braided into a pigtail, secured with hairpins at the base.
The ponytail looks impeccable. This hairstyle is perfect for any event:
- wind the hair along the entire length in soft waves;
- divide the whole mass into 4 parts - 2 side, upper and lower;
- collect the lower part in the tail;
- top - comb, twist into a plait, fix with pins;
- the side parts are alternately combed and twisted into bundles, securing them next to the upper strand;
- collect all parts in one tail, sprinkle with varnish.
A simplified version of such a voluminous tail is done without side strands: first, the hair is collected at the top, then the remaining hair is at the bottom. The upper strands are fixed with mousse or wax so that the elastic from the lower tail is not visible.
On the basis of the tails, hairstyles with various buns are made. Depending on the type of hair and dress, you can make a high, low or side version.
Elegant sleek bun:
- divide hair into 2 parts - upper and lower;
- collect the lower part in the side tail and make a bundle with a foam roller;
- fasten hair from the bundle with hairpins above it - shown in the photo;
- comb the upper part and cover those that are fixed above the bun with this hair;
- roll the strand with a tourniquet, which to wrap the bundle and secure;
- highlight the perfect smoothness of the hairstyle with a gloss effect.
The side bundle can be wrapped obliquely, instead of a tourniquet, or the strands that remained after the formation of the bundle can be released outward, combed and laid around.
An airy bun with loose curls looks gentle and romantic - a great option for a prom or a trip to the theater:
- collect a low tail, separating two side strands;
- roll the tail into a bun;
- wind the strands in waves;
- bring the longest wavy strands back and fasten to the bundle.
A braided bun will take some skill from you, but the chic result will be worth it. Practice, if possible, a few days before the celebration.
