With a baby who loves to grab hair, a simple updo for everyday life is a must. But because I have a busy household with lots to tackle each day, I don’t have a ton of time to devote to fixing my hair. Of course, it’s still important that it look nice.
I’ve come up with several easy to do updos to meet these challenges. Many of these styles utilize a flexi clip from Lilla Rose. I have several flexi clips and use them often. They hold my hair well while still being extremely comfortable.
The style I’ve been fixing my hair in most often lately uses a large flexi clip (they come in several sizes). It looks neat and put together without being severe.
This style is quick and simple and the finished look is elegant and pretty.
5 Steps to a Simple but Elegant Updo
Step 1
Gather the front of the hair near the temples and pin back loosely at the crown of the head. (Bangs would make this step unnecessary.)
Step 2
Pull the rest of the hair back into a loose ponytail at the back of the head.
Step 3
Twist the hair and fold against the head as if creating a french twist.
Step 4
Secure the hair with a flexi clip by pinning in the middle of the “folded” hair.
Step 5
Arrange the hair neatly and pin any stray hairs into place.
And it’s that simple! It takes just a few minutes and stays in place all day.
I’d love to know your favorite everyday way to wear your hair, if you’d care to share in the comments.
So cute! I’ve been growing out very short hair for a while now, so I’m always on the hunt for styles as it grows.
Currently, about all I can do is braids, so I dutch braid my hair into either a half back style, or use all my hair, and secure it with a flexi clip.
