Let’s get started on this easy heart hairstyle!
*Note- this hairstyle works best on hair that is a little dirty. You’ll want that extra grip to get the twirls we are creating to stay put. If your hair is freshly washed, make sure to use a good texture spray on it before trying this hairstyle.
Step 1-
To begin this easy heart hairstyle, divide your hair into two small sections at the crown. You are only using the hair across the top of your head and leaving your hair in the back and underneath free flowing.
Step 2-
Take each small section of hair and create a semi-loose ponytail with them using the clear rubber bands. Don’t make these ponytails very tight, you want them to lay flat against your head.
Step 3-
Beginning with one section, take the ponytail in your hand and twist it away from the center of your head. While holding the twist with one hand, gently pull and fluff the strands above where you are holding the ponytail.
Step 4-
Now that you have a twist, let it curl itself around into a cinnamon bun shape on your head. Center the end of your cinnamon bun twist on the back of your head close to the nape of your neck.
Step 5-
Secure the end of your twist with a bobby pin, and also pin your twist into the shape you want with more bobby pins. Stretch the twist to soften and fluff it. Remember, you are creating half of a heart shape with each twist!
Step 6-
Repeat the above steps with your other ponytail to create the other half of your heart shape. Be sure to layer your ends on top of each other to create a ‘v’ at the bottom of your easy heart hairstyle for Valentine’s Day and to hide the bobby pins.
Step 7-
Fluff your hair around your easy heart hairstyle and enjoy your Valentine’s Day look!
