Bridesmiads Hair: 2 Step Boho Mini-Braids

The last bridesmaids hairstyle from our waterfall shoot (pop on over to GWS for that) is super simple and perfect for special occasions AND everyday.

Step one: Part your hair in the middle. Add texture to straight hair by loosely curling a few sections away from your face. Next, add dry shampoo and mess things up a bit!

Step two: Create four mini-braids (two on each side of your part) throughout your hair. Don't worry about being precise or keeping braids tight... things should look bohemian and relaxed.

Step three (optional): Add a flower crown or interesting headpiece for more fun.

Bridesmaids Hair: How-to Braided Ponytail

I'm so excited to share this simple hair tutorial from our beautiful bridesmaids shoot (seen on Green Wedding Shoes here). I love an effortless ponytail with a little bit of added beauty!

Step one: Part your hair on one side. Leaving a large chunk out (from your part to the opposite side of your head) gather your hair into a low ponytail.

Step two: Secure your ponytail with a clear elastic.

Step Three: With the remaining loose hair, create a french braid down the length of your face. Either tuck hair into the first elastic or, if you have thicker strands, add another rubber band around the base of your ponytail AND your braid.

Step Four: Wrap a thick strand of hair from your ponytail around the elastic (to disguise it) and tuck the hair underneath.

Step Five (optional): Add a succulent crown or beautiful headpiece for a little more pizazz.

Happy Friday! + weekly roundup

Happy (bachelorette) weekend friends! I'm so excited to hit the road for a little New Orleans bash with my best girls today. We've got a fun day of DIYs planned, a beautiful suite to stay in (complete with a massage... this bride is in NEED of one!) and a few beignets on the menu. It's going to be a blast! As always, I'll be updating Instagram obsessively and would love for you to follow along @hazelandscout
