How To Create A Hair Knot made by videojug.com


Styling Your Hair:
How To Create A Hair Knot

[TEXT OF THE VIDEO YOU'VE SEEN ABOVE]

The hair knot, also known as a hair bun or chignon, is a timeless style that can be worn anywhere. Celebrity Hair Stylist Robert Steinken shows VideoJug how to create the perfect hair knot.

You Will Need

* 1 Brush
* 1 Coated Elastic Band
* 3 to 6 Bobby Pins
* 1 Hair Spray
* 1 Shine Serum

Step 1:
Brush
Begin by brushing to smooth and detangle the hair. While it seems obvious, this step is too often overlooked, resulting in those ever-frustrating bumps in your ponytail or updo. Try using a paddle brush with boar bristles; it adds shine to your hair.
Step 2:
Create A Ponytail
Brush your hair away from your face and gather it into your hand. Wrap a coated elastic band around your hair. Separate your ponytail into two sections and gently tug to secure the band.
Step 3:
Twist
Twist the hair of your ponytail from the elastic band to the ends. If you're hair is layered or prone to frizzes and flyaways, apply a few drops of shine serum to your hands before twisting to keep your hair smooth and sleek.
Step 4:
Wrap
Carefully wrap your twisted hair into a coil around the band. Use one hand to wrap your hair and another to hold the central part of the coil in place.
Step 5:
Secure With Bobby Pins
Tuck the ends of your hair under the knot and secure with a bobby pin. Place another bobby pin on the opposite side of the knot. Two pins works for those with fine hair but if your hair's thick, you'll need to use more.
Step 6:
Finishing Spray
Now that you've created the perfect knot…finish it off with some hairspray to keep it that way.

How To Style Emo Hair made by videojug.com


Choosing A Hairstyle:
How To Style Emo Hair

Emo hair is designed to reflect the personality and individuality of the wearer. So in this film we show you some great techniques for creating a totally unique emo hairstyle.

Step 1:
Colour
When you're styling emo hair, you need to decide what the main colour is going to be, and then choose colours for the panels and streaks that will complement it. For a real emo look, use a brighter colour on the inner layers of hair, so that it's revealed through the outer layers which hang over the top.
Step 2:
Cutting
One of the main characteristics of emo hair is that it is cut in layers of varying different lengths. The hair is often cut with a technique called point-cutting, cutting the ends of the hair at an angle rather than straight. Having an asymmetrical fringe swept over one side of the face is also typical of the emo look. When cutting layers into the hair, cut shorter layers on top to reveal the different coloured layers beneath.
Step 3:
Styling
Emo hair is almost always straight, so blow-dry the hair to take out any waviness or curls. Pull the hair quite taut with a brush as you blow-dry it, as this will help straighten it. Next, use hair strengtheners to straighten the hair even more, and make it look more compact and defined. Emo hairstyles often have lots of volume at the top and get thinner towards the ends of the hair. To give the hair more volume on top, back comb and blow-dry it near the roots. Use hairspray to fix the hair this way. Doing this with the head hanging downwards will increase the effect even more.
Step 4:
Fine-tuning the look
Next, use a hair wax to give the look more definition and shape. Style the hair so it is compact towards the ends, but still has volume at the top. Now you can experiment with these techniques to create exciting, new emo styles.
