Everyone's image turns out to be very romantic and gentle. The braid is easy to braid, and you don't have to visit a master to braid it. There are many options for how to create this hairstyle. In this article, we will cover only a small part.
Braids and tails are part of these braids. You can braid many hairstyles yourself without any problems. And also they can be done not only on long hair, but also on short hair. However, there is one thing: for different hair lengths - different hairstyles.
For whom and on what occasion are these hairstyles suitable?
These braids are ideal for all women, young and old. You can also make a braid-"heart" in everyday life, and if you add various decorations, then it is perfect for a holiday.It can be braided in kindergarten, school, date. The main thing is that all the elements of the image are combined with each other.
Now we will analyze each hairstyle step by step separately.
The tools you need:
- combs: regular and with a sharp end;
- silicone rubber bands;
- styling products (optional to keep the hairstyle better).
Hair parting in the shape of a heart
This version of the parting is perfect for all girls with different hair lengths. It also won't take long.
Let's start analyzing the hairstyle. We take a comb and with a sharp end "draw" a heart on the head. When we have “drawn” the first half, we take the hair in hand and also “draw” the second half. Then we collect the hair in a ponytail. Further, at your discretion, you can braid the tail in a circular braid or just leave it as it is.
To make the ponytail more elegant, it is recommended to curl it into curls.
"Heart" from the tail
This is also a very simple modified ponytail hairstyle that can be braided for both short and long hair. Therefore, even if you have rather short hair, you will have a pretty ponytail with a "heart" in a couple of minutes.
Let's start creating a hairstyle.
We carefully comb the hair, take one strand at the sides and tie it with a transparent silicone rubber band. Then we take another strand and twist it around the tail. Next, push the ends of the hair so that half of the "heart" comes out. After this is done, we pin it with a hairpin or "invisible". And we carry out the same procedure with the other half of the tail, in order to get the second half of the "heart". At the end we tie the "heart" with an elastic band, and make the sides wider.
Interesting "heart" with a ribbon
This styling option is ideal for those who like to decorate their hairstyles and add ribbons there. Long hair is required for this braid. In time, this procedure will take at least 15 minutes..
With the sharp end of the comb, divide the hair to the middle of the occipital zone of the head. From the beginning of the very top of the head, we take a small strand and divide it into three equal parts. Then we begin to weave the braid from the first side, along the parting, with a one-sided grip. The closer we move to the forehead, the more we move the hair to the ears, and the grips are made longer than the first.
When you have already moved to the bend of the "heart", begin to weave the hair from the face. Twist the braid by pulling and catching the hair. Having reached the beginning of the ear, we no longer pick up the strands, and the direction of the braid is adjusted by pulling the hair and weaving it diagonally. As you finished with the first half, we tie it with an elastic band so that it does not come loose. And we do the same on the other side. Next, we tie both parts into braids. And now the "heart" is ready.
Then we take the ribbon and begin to weave it into the ready-made "heart" from the bottom up. We pass the ribbon, lifting one loop of the inner part of the braid.
We thread the tape exclusively through the extreme loops.
Lacing the tape should only be criss-cross. If it is twisted, then give it a proper look. After we have reached the middle of the "heart", weave the ribbon into one half. Having finished weaving, we bring the ribbon to the middle of the "heart".
Likewise, weave it into the other half of your hairstyle. If you have finished the process and there are pieces of tape left, then just cut them off. After everything is done, secure the hairstyle with hairpins and "invisible". You can also fix it all with hairspray. If suddenly there are strands left, then they can be curled with a curling iron or on curlers.
"Heart" from a braid with pickups
We carefully comb the hair and make a tail on the crown of the head. Use only part of the curls in the crown zone, leave the rest loose. Divide the tail into two equal parts. Then we weave a braid from the first part, picking up the hair from one side of the head in this way: at the temple we separate three strands of hair, make one weave and add a strand from the tail. Then we weave the remaining hair one by one: from the side, from the tail, from the side, from the tail, and so on.The pigtail goes obliquely.
We braid it until all the hair from the selected part of the head is braided into a braid. We tie it with an elastic band. And using the same technology we weave a braid from another tail. We take two halves and tie them. It turns out a beautiful openwork "heart".
"Heart" of two braids
This hairstyle looks very interesting and gentle. It is perfect for celebrations as well as for everyday life. In the first option, you won't even need to decorate your hairstyle. She herself is very festive.
- First, we divide the hair in half, into two equal parts.
- Further, it is worth wetting your hair a little with water or styling products, in the event that your hair is unruly.
- We carefully comb the hair.
- With the help of a comb with a sharp end on the crown on the right side of the parting, separate half of the hair and shape it in the form of a “heart” half. On the left side, repeat the same procedure. Do not forget that they must be the same in order to end up with a beautiful, even "heart".
- Then we very carefully comb the resulting "heart" and fix it with an elastic band and "invisible".
Double "heart"
Another very interesting weaving option. It is suitable for those who are familiar with the technique of creating "French" braids.
- At the top of the head, with the help of a "ponytail" comb, as it were, "draw" a small "heart". We twist the strand that turned out to be in the center into a small bun and fix it with any clamp - then we will have to dissolve it, so it doesn't matter how you fix it.
- We divide the remaining curls with a straight parting into two parts: for the time being we stab one part, from the other we begin weaving an arched "French" braid. You should get a half of the "heart".
- Similarly, weave a pigtail on the other side.
- Next, we dissolve our bun, which was left on the top of the head, and weave from it an even "French" braid towards the back of the head. When the braiding comes to the back of the head, you can collect all the hair in either a bump, a single braid, or a low ponytail.
- Optionally, the hairstyle can be decorated with a bow, flower, interesting hairpins.
Care during the day
The "heart" hairstyle does not need special care and keeps well on the hair. Of course, when worn, it can fluff up a little, for example, due to windy weather. This will give the styling the slight sloppiness that is in vogue right now. But if you don't want your hair to frizz, you can use care products for fixing. The styling will remain in its original form and will hold on tightly.
What decorations can you add to your hairstyle?
If you wish, you can decorate your "heart" of hair with the following accessories:
- multi-colored ribbons;
- various hairpins;
- hairpins and "invisible" with rhinestones, beads;
- flowers, both natural and artificial.
