"Hairstyle affects how your hair turns outday, and ultimately – life». (Sophia Loren) Long beautiful hair is the pride of any woman. Having thick, luxurious hair, it is so easy to amaze others with a variety of hairstyles! But this is ideal. The reality is that owners of luxurious hair rarely pamper themselves with new exquisite hairstyles. Day after day, they repeat the ritual they have been accustomed to since childhood: someone grabs their ponytail with a crab, someone pins up an invariable bun, and someone stubbornly leaves their hair loose. However, in the modern world, a working woman cannot always afford liberties in choosing a hairstyle: many serious companies have a certain dress code. Therefore, many employees have to create office hairstyles for long hair that will allow them to look not only businesslike, but also feminine and stylish. There are several basic hairstyles for the office that are ideal for owners of long hair. We will tell you about three of them: a bun, a braid and a ponytail.
The famous "Ponytail"
Did you know that there are more than 80ways to make a ponytail hairstyle? After all, having long hair, you can fantasize endlessly. The fashion for this hairstyle appeared in ancient times, its popularity flared up, then died down, replaced by complex and sophisticated ways of styling hair. But time passed, and the ponytail again returned to its rightful place - on the beautiful heads of fashionistas with long hair. How many hairstyles can boast such tenacity? We will consider only two ways to create a hairstyle: a ponytail on the crown of the head and a "stylish ponytail". By the way, for such a hairstyle you need thick hair: if they are thin, then you will get not a "ponytail", but a "mouse" tail! For a ponytail on the crown of the head, you need to straighten your hair (you can use a hair straightener). Then gather your hair into a ponytail on the crown and secure it with an elastic band or other hair clip. After that, you need to carefully comb your hair with a fine comb to smooth down all the falling hairs, and spray it with hairspray. It is not forbidden to use a spray to add shine to your hair. A stylish ponytail is a great hairstyle for the office, the creation of which will not take too much of your time. Just gather your hair into a ponytail, and holding it with one hand, comb the roots. Now let your hair go and secure the ponytail with an elastic band. Scarlett Johansson and Jennifer Aniston appeared with such a hairstyle on the red carpet. Why not shine in your office with such a ponytail?
Refined "Roller"
Another popular office hairstyle is the bun,or, as many call it, a shell. This hairstyle really does resemble a shell because of the tightly twisted tourniquet of hair. The French generally call the hairstyle "banana" - you know for what reasons. The famous roller will make any woman sophisticated and elegant, with such a hairstyle you can safely appear in any, even the most strict office. And if you show a little imagination and think over hair accessories in advance, then after a working day you can easily go to the theater or any other event without changing your hairstyle. To create a roller, comb your hair thoroughly and gather it into a ponytail, without securing it with an elastic band. Raise your hair up and twist it into a tourniquet. Now fold the tail so that a small loop is on top, and the ends are hidden under the resulting roller. Secure the hairstyle with invisible hairpins or beautiful hairpins with stones and rhinestones. Carefully comb the hair at the front to avoid "cocks" and unruly strands falling out. Fix the finished hairstyle with hairspray. Another option for creating a hairstyle: put not all the hair in a ponytail, but only part of it. Simply fix the strands from the temples and forehead for a while with any hairpin. After you make a shell from the remaining hair according to the previous scenario, comb the collected strands. Then lift the combed hair up and, giving the strands neatness, fix them to the top of the roller. You will get a lush, elegant hairstyle that will be the envy of absolutely all office mice, and men will look at you in a completely special way.
Long braid - girlish beauty
You can write a whole article about braided hairstylesbook. What is the most popular hairstyle for women with long hair, starting from Kievan Rus, up to the present day? That's right, a braid. But modern office fashionistas can not only braid three standard strands into a braid, but also braid a "French braid", "basket", "fishtail" and so on. Remember, at least, the image of Yulia Tymoshenko - her famous "basket" won the hearts of millions of people around the world. At Fashion Week in Milan and Paris in 2006, almost all the models showed off "with ripe ears of corn" around their neat heads. However, unlike the previous versions of office hairstyles, it is quite difficult to do a complex braid yourself - not every woman is capable of such a feat. It is simply wonderful if you have a relative or friend "at hand" who can quickly and neatly prepare your hair for going to work. But this does not happen often, and therefore, it is quite possible to learn at least one braiding technique that will suit your image as accurately as possible. One of the simplest types of braiding (except for the standard braid) is the "fishtail" hairstyle. At first glance, it seems quite complicated, but once you practice in front of the mirror a few times, a triumph in the office is guaranteed! Divide your hair into two equal parts. Now separate one thin strand from the left side and throw it to the right. Also separate a strand from the right side and throw it to the left part of the hair. Try to overlap the thin strands. Do not forget that the thin strands should be the same thickness. Carefully continue braiding to the length you need. There is a saying: "Long hair on a woman is like a car on a man." And in order for your hair to delight both you and others, you need to take care of it. There are a great many office hairstyles, but all of them will look attractive only if the hair looks healthy and well-groomed. Therefore, use good hair cosmetics and visit your hairdresser regularly to give your hair a well-groomed look. And do not forget about hair accessories - with them, office hairstyles will play in a completely new, attractive light. We recommend reading:
