One of my projects recently has been transcribing all of my videos to make closed captions and so they can be very easily translated. If you would like to be involved in the translation process and you speak another language send me an email!
| Anyway what this means is that I will be posting text instructions with the videos as well so you should be able to follow along. Eventually all of these videos will have photo tutorials to match but for now here is the first transcript!Casual Back Bow Hairstyle Instructions! Hello Besties! Today we’re doing yet another bow hairstyle. This one is really casual and is on the back in a half up/half down style. Let’s get started! This style looks really great if your hair is already curled. Brush your hair backwards and start with your fingers at your ears. Pull them upwards so you are grabbing a section on either side of your head. Make sure that you leave the middle bit because we’ll be poking through there in a minute. Tie the sections with a hairband but on the last loop don’t pull all the way through. Make sure that the ends of the hair are pointing down and there’s a loop above the tail. Just like this. Separate the tails into halves and push them to either side. Now separate the loop into halves and push them to the sides too. Grab a little bit of hair from underneath the band. And pull it upwards over the top of the loops. This is going to form the middle part of out bow. To pull it through and hide the band, what you need to do is poke a hold beneath the hairband. You can use your fingers but I used a teasing comb. Just to make enough room to pull that piece of hair that we are using through it. You can either continue wrapping the hair around to hide the band more or just let it hang loose. That depends on if you want to hide the band or if you are planning on covering it later with an accessory like a bow or a flower. Now puff up the loops on the side so that they look more bow like and give the whole thing a blast of hairspray. Pin anything in place that’s sticking out weirdly. I was aiming for a casual version of this style so I left it a bit messy. You can also do a sleek, elegant version by using a bit more hairspray and smoothing down all the fly aways. What you should have is a nice bow at the top with some cute curly ribbons hanging down below. Tadaa! Totally cute. All done! The perfect cute but casual hairstyle! I’ve done a lot of other bow tutorials for mini and huge bows, so make sure you check those out too. I hope this was a useful video.
