Hi everyone,
The undercut is a style that's become popular in the last while, but if, like me, you're too scared or too lazy (imagine trying to grow it out!) or a combination of both to shave half your head, never fear! Here is a quick and easy way to fake it :)
For this hairstyle, you will need:
For this hairstyle, you will need:
- A hairbrush
- A fine-toothed comb (not really necessary, but it does make parting your hair that bit easier)
- Bobby pins
- Hair bobbins
- Started by brushing through your hair and getting rid of any tangles. This will make it much easier when it comes time to start plaiting.
- Next, you need to give yourself an extreme side parting, pulling most of your hair over to one side of your head
- If you want to, you can section off your hair on the the side with more hair and put it in a ponytail for the sake of convenience, you won't be needing it for awhile.
- On the other side (the one you will be using) section off your hair using your ear as a guide, like so.
- You can tie back any hair that falls behind your ear, as its the section in front (see below) that you'll be using.
- Further divide this section horizontally into two even sections, using your comb if you have one (there's a lot of dividing in this tutorial, I'm sorry)
- If your hair is on the thinner side, you can skip this step and just do one plait, but if you have a lot of hair like me, you're probably better off doing two
- Pin the top section out of the way for the moment, leaving the bottom section out
- From the section, take a small piece from the front
- Divide this section into three
- Start plaiting, grabbing section from the top and bottom (the smaller the better) and adding them to the plasit as you go
- When you run out of hair, secure it with a bobby pin, like so...
- Now take the top side section...
- Section off the front and repeated the process
- The result should look something like this...
- Take the back and other side out of their ponytails
- And here is the finished look...
