Top Knot

The more casual approach to hairstyling, if your Valentine’s Day plans are throughout the whole day or just a lunchtime affair, this is the perfect hairstyle for you. Although this style works more easily on women with long hair, it is achievable for those who have mid to shoulder length hair too!

How to:

• Step 1 – Pull the top half of your hair away from the rest of your head
• Step 2 – Tie this hair into a messy bun with a hairband and secure with hair clips if necessary
• Step 3 – To add that extra wow factor, add some beach waves to the the rest of your hair with a curler or tongs and spray with hairspray to set

That’s it! Now go and show off your tousled waves and messy top knot to the world!
