Hot Hairstyle Trend: Half Up Top Knot

Hey my beautiful ladies! Trends are typically styles that you start to see everywhere seemingly overnight. It’s hard to guess how long hair trends will stick around for, but there are some we know will be here to stay as soon as we see it catching on. When it comes to the current trending hairstyles, the leader-of-the-pack is without a doubt the half up top knot.

How to create The Half Up Top Knot:
1. Add texture to your hair with a good sea salt spray spritzed onto wet hair and leave it to dry naturally if you want a more natural look. If you’re looking for a more groomed look use tongs or irons to curl.
And for the rest of you lucky enough to have wavy or curly hair – skip the first step and use your natural texture to straight away create the half-up messiness.
2. Section the top of your hair by running your index fingers from the top of your ear until they meet and tie back into a half-up, half-down ponytail.
3. Twirl the ponytail around the base of the hair band and pin into shape using hair pins. And for hold, spritz with hairspray. Voilà, it’s as easy as that!

As easy to create as it is cool to wear, this hairstyle gives you a more modern-chic vibe than just wearing your hair down straight and parted. The half up top knot will give you a youthful look by pulling your gorgeous facial features upward. You will instantly achieve an uplifting and fresh makeover without even touching your face. It’s also a lifesaver during the summer heat wave because will keep the hair off your face in a stylish manner — perfect if you’re not one to go for a full updo. Plus, if your roots tend to get greasy with the heat no matter how much dry shampoo you spray, pulling your hair into a half up top knot hides the offending locks instantly. Whether you are running errands or going to a formal event, you will look effortlessly beautiful with this easy go-to style. With the right outfit and accessories this style compliments whatever look you are going for. Bonus is it’s a perfect hairdo for those lazy days when you can’t be bothered with doing anything with it but don’t want it all over your face.
