I am soooooo excited to show you all this do!  I have seen it on Pinterest and have wanted to learn how to do this one and finally last week I figured it out!  I think this do is soooooo cute to do with curly hair.

My little brother kept saying I looked like a Greek so in his honor I will call this the....

Grecian Updo

My hair is about shoulder length so if you have longer hair you may have to find out a different way to put your hair up in the back.  But what I did was loosely gather my hair at the nape of my neck and folded it up.  Giving it a twist or two, and bobby pinning it in place.  I like leaving a few curls hanging down in front but that is up to you and what style you like.

Then I took a really long ribbon and secured one end under my neck and secured it with a bobby.  Then wrapped it around my head twice and secured the other end with another bobby that crossed the first one for security.

And that's it!  You could also use a scarf for a different look!

Well, hope this works for you!  Let me know what you think!  :)



This is a do I tried when I was low on time and I didn't have time for my hair to dry.  Quick, simple, and cute!

First braid your hair into a Dutch Braid.  Which is a french braid accept instead of pulling the middle strand under the others when braiding you pull it over.  (If you don't know how to french braid this lady has a lot of really good tutorials on her site that REALLY helped me to learn how.)  http://www.cutegirlshairstyles.com/ 

Now, don't braid all the way down!  Just til you run out of hair to pull into it... at the base of your hair line.  Secure with rubber band.  Then take the extra hair and make a messy bun!

That's it!  :)

What a cute and simple idea! French braid loosely and then tuck under! I'm definitely going to try this one!
