Yes, it is time to experiment and have fun with your hair and if either braids or top knots are not cutting it for you anymore....try this!
How-To: Half-Up
Double Knot
1. First step:
texturizing product/dry shampoo, which is essential for grip and hold when
styling. (Kattia Solano, owner of Butterfly Studio loves Oribe Dry Texturizing
Spray on the crown area) Lift hair, taking it by sections, spray at the root as
if you were teasing and then massage through with your hands to work the product
in.
2. Using your
hands, section out a “horse shoe” shape of hair at the crown area. Thicker hair
can opt for larger section while thinner hair can work with a smaller amount of
hair. Rake through with your hands to brush and pull back hair to create a clean
section.
3. With a small
hair tie in one hand, take a section of hair and pull halfway through the tie,
so that you are left with a little “pom-pom.” Wrap elastic around 2-3 times
until secure without pulling all of the hair through. (Use small clear elastics
so you won’t see the tie, and in case you don't wrap any hair around the knot
the ties will be discreet.)
4. Open up the
pom-pom with your fingertips for fullness to create a textured knot, then wrap
the hair ends around your knot once and tuck hair under the elastic band with
ends sticking out. Keep the remaining length right under the pom-pom, as you
will use the extra hair length to help with fullness and perfectly messy texture
for your next knot.
