How to Create a Wedding Hairstyle Pt. 2 | Curly Hairstyles

0:05So now I have just rouged this, and I am going to wrap it around the top
0:09here. I hold it very loosely with my hand. Then I pin it. This is just
0:14going to be the base shape for what I am doing on the top. There is no
0:17right way or wrong way to do it.
0:19When you are starting out, I think the bigger the sections you take, the
0:23fewer the sections, the more beautiful the outcome will be. You have
0:27created a beautiful little chignon. Then we are going to add to that. What
0:31we are going to do is take these pieces on the side, and we are going to
0:34curl them with a curling iron, and I am curling them backwards towards the
0:38face because that is where the hair is going to drape to cover.
0:41I am going to take these curls, and I am going to pin them going back. Then
0:46I would do the same thing on the other side. So now I am going to move on
0:51to the rectangular section that we did on the top of the head. I am going
0:54to take it, and I am going to section it in half. I am going to create a
0:57little height on the crown. I am just going to back comb them a little
1:01piece here, just a soft little back comb. We do not want to anything too
1:08big, but we want to create a little bit of height right here.
1:12I am just going to smooth this hair. So when we get to the top of the bun
1:17shape, I am going to take it and do a little twist. Then kind of push it up
1:22so we are maintaining a little bit of height there. I am just going to pin
1:27it in place. Then I am going to take this extra hair, and I am going to use
1:31it to fill in a little spot right here. Remember, always check for
1:36symmetry. Now this shape is still very moveable and bendable. It is not
1:40stuck into place. I can very easily manipulate it still. Now with the top,
1:48we are going to create some beautiful texture in the top moving backwards.
1:53I am going to do very similar effect on the sides, only I am going to do it
1:57with the top. It is going to lay and drape over everything back here.
2:01I am just going to do the same thing that I did on the sides, on the top. I
2:07am actually taking this top section into two little sections of back curl
2:12and then a curl on top of that. I am curling them in the same direction as
2:17each other. Most important part about this is getting that curl at the
2:25root. So I am curling these pieces here because I am refining the texture.
2:30So I have just finished curling the front, and you can see how separate the
2:35curls are. You can almost see through them. So now we are going to take and
2:39we are going to rake our hands through lightly. We do not want them to look
2:43too perfect.
2:43We are going to start pinning it and covering. So we have left this really
2:48curly because as you can see the shape under here is not so curly. We are
2:52going to create that overlay of texture like we want. I am just very
2:57loosely pinning these in. I am not going to worry about the ends until the
3:02very last. I am working from that second row of curls back. I am going to
3:07continue draping everything along the back, covering up the shape. Now we
3:16spin around and we deal with what is happening in the back. I like to use
3:20these ends to do a couple of things. It depends. If you want this to just
3:25feel like a flow of curls back here, then you would just integrate them in,
3:29and they would become part of the flow. If you wanted to make it feel like
3:32a separate chignon, you could use these to create a kind of banded look on
3:36the top.
3:38I like it to just be a flow of curls back. I think if you wore your hair
3:43naturally curly most of the time, this will feel like a very natural way to
3:48be a bride. You will feel very you. You will look just like the most
3:52glamorous version of yourself. So there you have a very romantic bridal
3:57look with naturally curly hair.
