Hairstyle of the week: the messy half-ponytail
We’ve fallen head over heels in love with this elegant yet simple look. Get creative and follow our simple steps to nail this chic, bohemian hairstyle.
Why you’ll love it. Because this style is perfect for showing off mid-length to longer locks. Wear through the day, whether you’re socializing or heading off to work. Thanks to its modern twist, the style is bound to turn heads! This updated version of the half-ponytail was recently spotted on the Audra Spring-Summer 2015 runway show at Paris Fashion Week. Models wore loose pieces with clean lines in neutral tones whilst make-up was natural and sophisticated.
Get the look at home. Start by washing your hair with Hydration and Suppleness shampoo from the Oil Therapy range to strengthen and add shine. After carefully drying your hair, divide into two equal sections, one on top of the other. Focus on the upper section, backcombing the roots slightly by pulling a comb downwards towards the scalp for added volume. Next, gather into a half-ponytail and secure with a hair tie, making sure not to pull to tightly…you’re aiming for a messy effect after all! Finally, let your lower section hang loose and spray all over with hairspray to keep everything in place.
