Up-do in 3 minutes!

Here comes another hair tutorial! I thought I might as well share all I know about hair, and this is about it! Not much in other words, but this up-do is genius! Sooo fast, so easy and you can do it without even looking in the mirror (after a little practice).

All you need is some kind of elastic head band. I just grabbed the first one I saw and it was a black one (not super pretty, but it works for this tutorial). For New Year's I wore this up-do, but with a thin cream colored satin band intertwined with gold chain.. (it's in the picture). Now, that was pretty! :)

Here we go:

1. Tweeze the top part of your hair, just like in the previous hair tutorial seen here so you get a little poof!

2. Put the head band on, placing it properly so it wont all of a sudden bounce off... (that would be a sight!). You will look kind of like this...










3. Start taking one section of your hair at a time and twirl it and then tuck it down the elastic head band. Do this with all your hair...
I did this in less than two minutes!








4. And voila! The end result is this!











Sometimes I have half an hour to get ready for a dinner or party (and that's not a lot for me!!) and all though this is a messy up-do it still looks chic. Especially with long dangly big ear rings!! ♥

TDF! It´s too good to be true, it looks so elegant but still sexy! I´ll try this tommorow, I have tons of headbands (even pretty ones) and only use them when I´m washing my face. It´s better than every youtube hair tutorial, love it! And it´s perfect for summer I think. You have the best ideas EVER, my hair was really sad without you! ;) I´m lying in bed with my puffy pony tail writing this.xoxo

Seekingelevation:
Hahaha, no that hasn't happened yet! Hopefully it wont either.. But just make sure the head band is tight enough around the head.. But not so tight you will loose blood circulation in your though... ;)

Charlotte:
But you have medium length hair, right? You can do this hair-do with that! :)
xo

Tina:
Thank you :) It's super easy! You should try it ;)
