I know what you’re thinking, “Caitlin, I can’t change my part! I’ll look ridiculous.” False. I have recently switched from my natural side part to a middle part. I’ll give you a minute to collect your thoughts. It seems crazy to abandon the natural growth of your hair, but honestly it’s a lot of fun to be different and change your part. People don’t rock the middle part anymore, which is kind of a bummer because it was so big back in the day. Now it’s starting to slowly make a comeback and it’s a little more edgy. The first day I did it everyone was asking me if I got my hair cut. Little did they know I just parted my hair down the middle instead of on the side.
You’re probably assuming that you can’t pull off a part other than the one you have, but that’s not true. There are some parts that are more flattering on certain face shapes than others, but it doesn’t mean you can’t try it. For instance, heart shaped faces best pull off a middle part because it elongates the face while those with long faces lean towards side parts. Watch below! Read More »
I’m always debating whether or not to cut my hair shorter when I get sick of dealing with my long locks. My hair is pretty high maintenance because it has a mind of its own. I cut it pretty short at the beginning of my freshman year and loved it, but I’ve been growing it out ever since because I missed the versatility. Sometimes though, I still get the urge to chop it. I know I’ll end up wanting to grow it long again so I never do. I’m sure a lot of you deal with this on a regular basis too so let me introduce you to the faux bob. Having long hair allows you to do so many different things, including short styles.
This hair style is really easy to accomplish if you have layers and can instantly change up your look. Celebs do it all the time on the red carpet leaving us to wonder if they actually cut their hair or not. You can achieve the same look with a few bobby pins and some tricks. Watch below!
Ponytails are great for keeping your hair out of your face or off the back of your neck or if you’re just having a bad hair day. They’re easy, which is why we love them so much. But the regular ponytail can be a bit dated sometimes. I like to spruce mine up a bit whether it’s adding a braid, tucking pieces around my hair tie, or doing the little number I’m showing you today. Sometimes the ponytail just needs a bit of an upgrade, and this is the perfect way to do it. I had this tool back in the 90s that pulled my hair through itself, but I misplaced it back in the day and I haven’t seen them around much.
You don’t need a tool to do this look though, so I’ll show you how to do it without one! Watch below… Read More »
It’s been a while since we had a hair tutorial, so I thought it was about time! I’m pretty busy during the day, which means I don’t have a lot of time to do my hair. And you all know I don’t wash it every day, but it’s still a hassle to keep up with. So quick and easy hair styles are essential for me, and they probably are for you too. I like styles that keep my hair out of the way so I can focus on everything else I have to deal with.
Half up is my go-to style because it’s the perfect combination, but it can be boring. That’s why I like to add braids, or in this video, twisted buns. It adds a little oomph to the typical half up hairdo. This style is super easy and quick so you’ll be able to snooze a bit more before class and still look cute when you get there.
