Prom

Here is a style I did this past weekend for a high school prom. I love the classic elegance. 
It was done by first securing three pony tails. By doing this you create security and you can work with the hair more easily. If I wanted the hairstyle to be centered in one area I would have done one ponytail but because I wanted the  knots to go from the crown of her head to the nape of her neck I created three ponytails vertically.  
I then took pieces of her hair and knotted and pinned it as I went along making sure to create balance. The front of her hair was left out so that I could create interest in the front.

Gibson Tuck and a Loose Roll


Spring is in the air and weddings are in abundance. I've been showcasing updos for the past month because weddings, dances, graduations are all around the corner. 

My cousin got married this weekend and I did her hair and her sister's hair as well. The bride had a Gibson tuck that rested on the nape of her neck with loose twists on either side of her head. Her sister had a loose, carefree bun.

Mod With Some Vintage Flair


The model for this formal style has long, thick hair with medium to high coarse texture. Love how it turned out! It is perfect-modern meets vintage.
