30 Days of Hairstyles Redo: Day 6

I originally wanted to do a braided headband hairstyle, but one side wasn't quite working out, so I went with half a headband...at least it's not half a head! I really liked how it turned out, though!

Apparently my short hair makes me look younger, so I decided to embrace my youthful look with some fun pigtails while I did some housework.

30 Days of Hairstyles Redo: Day 4

I was hoping my hair would turn out better, but this is what I got after using hot rollers. I let them set for 45 minutes and still hardly any curl. I think they work better with longer hair. Oh well, still experimenting with shorter hair!

So....this is my new hair! Partly why I haven't been quite keeping up with the hair posts is because I was a little traumatized after my hair was cut. This is the shortest it's every been, so it's taken some getting used to. I haven't really felt like experimenting with this cut, just because I'm not used to the length yet. This day I decided to flip the ends out and see how it looked, not too bad! Next, I'm going to try to get motivated to do some vintage styles with pin curls.

Just a simple look for the day, I used my flat iron to make some loose curls and left my hair down, easy enough!

Here's my hair inspiration for today's hairstyle:

And here's my interpretation:

I didn't quite get it as messy, but I think it turned out pretty good and only took about 15 minutes! I do think next time I do this, though, I'll put some braids on the other side as well. This may be my new favorite summer hairstyle!

Yesterday I wasn't feeling inspired to try anything new with my hair, so I just did a low ponytail and wrapped a piece of hair around to hide the hair tie (pictured below).

Today, though, I felt like doing something a little fancy and created a new hairstyle for me! Basically I just put my hair into a ponytail, created a space between the hair tie and scalp to pull the ponytail through a few times, and then secured it with some bobby pins.

Curly hair and an outfit post! I was going through my closet trying to mix up some pieces and came up with this outfit which I thought was kind of fun and vintage inspired. I'm wearing red peep toe shoes, but I couldn't get the angle right to show them.

My hair really doesn't like to hold curls, so I spray each piece with hairspray right before I curl it and then pin it (like a pincurl) after it's been curled. After all my hair is curled, pinned, and cool I let them all out! It works pretty well, but my curls still don't keep all day :(

30 Days 30 Hairstyles: Day 2

Today I decided to try out Heidi braids. I have wanted to do them for awhile, but haven't because I thought I would look too young with them, but I kind of like them! The only problem is all the fly-aways. I have always had tons of fly-aways, but I feel like this hairstyle makes them very pronounced, and I'm sure my layers aren't helping...

30 Days 30 Hairstyles: Day 1

A couple weeks ago one of my students said "Teacher, your hair is so pretty when you do it!" I thought it was strange since I always "do" my hair (straighten it and wear it down), but it got me thinking that I do my hair the same way almost every day. Last week I randomly came across a blog where a girl tried out 30 days of different hairstyles, which I think is a great idea! So, yesterday started my 30 days of different hairstyles. Yesterday I had the day off from teaching, but I did have my part time job where my hair is supposed to be up, so I put my bangs into a braid with the rest in a ponytail.
