2 Updo Hairstyles For Homecoming
Today's hair tutorial video features 2 of our favorite bun hairstyles that we thought would be perfect for Homecoming or Prom. If you are looking for a unique and fairly easy updo, either of these sleek and glamorous buns will do the trick.
We originally posted these hairstyles 5 years ago when my daughter was only 11. She's 16 now and will actually be going to her own High School Homecoming in a few weeks! We are assuming many of you have never seen this video, so we wanted to resurface it again.
Star and Flower Bun Video Tutorials: (Click here to watch the video directly on YouTube.)
This tutorial shows how to create these bun hairstyles using a knotted braiding technique. These 2 styles would not only be great for formal dances, but many other occasions including: Weddings (bridal hairstyle, or flower girl hairstyle) communions, baptisms, recitals, church, Easter, etc.

Even though these 2 updos look quite intricate, you will find that they are actually pretty quick and easy to create!Supplies needed:
- One hair tie for the top of the ponytail.
- Several bobby pins.
- Finishing hairspray, gel, wax, etc.
Fishtail Updo Hairstyle For Parties, Prom, Wedding | Fancy Hair Tutorial
Today's hairstyle tutorial is a beautiful updo style created using a simple fishtail braid!
Our step by step video instructions (below) show how to make a simplified french fishtail braid, transitioning into a standard fishtail, then wrapping and tucking the finished braid into a pretty updo hairstyle. This formal hairstyle is quite easy even though it doesn't look like it would be!
Fishtail Updo Hairstyle Video Tutorial:
(Click here to watch the video directly on YouTube.)This hairstyle would be great for many special occasions: The Prom, Homecoming, weddings (hairstyles for the bride and bridesmaids as well as guests) parties, dinners, church, etc.
As mentioned in our video, the braid can also be left down for another adorable look!
Tips and tricks:
- Use hair product to help prevent flyaways while you are creating the fishtail and for the finishing touches.
- Stretch the edges of your braid for a more voluminous final look.
- Miniature bobby pins (affiliate) are easier to hide in styles like this.
- You may want to loosen the hair at the crown of her head before you wrap up the braid for a softer and more effortless look.
Prom Hair Tutorial, Dress and Shoes!
GRWM Prom! Come join us as she gets ready for her first Prom.
Hey guys! A few weeks ago my daughter went to the Prom at her High School. We filmed as she got her Prom hairstyle done, showing step by step how to recreate it in a tutorial for you. She chose to wear a pretty updo with braids and twists and a sparkly headband as an accessory.

This updo is great for long hair, but would also work for shorter hair. The buns could be easily adjusted for the length of hair you are working with. We love this updo because it looks fancy and gorgeous but is fairly quick and easy, and requires no heat or pre curling of her hair (except for the optional pieces we left out framing her face.)
She went with a natural makeup look (which her aunt helped her with) a statement necklace, and minimal earrings. As you can see in our video, her dress was a modest vintage style and very princess like! We made a video a few weeks ago showing how to lace up this dress, which is a lovely corset back.
The dress was long enough that no one could see her shoes anyway, so she decided to go with the trend of Converse comfort! Best decision ever for the dance and for fun.
Hope you enjoyed a peek at her first Jr Prom!
2 Easy Prom Hairstyles in 3 Minutes!
Today we are sharing 2 half up Prom hairstyles that are so easy you could do them yourself! These styles are both very simple and elegant.
2 Easy Prom Hairstyles, Video Tutorial:
(Click here to watch the video directly on YouTube.)The 1st hairstyle is a half-up with the sides tied back into a standard knot. We have used a rhinestone clip to secure the knot on one side, adding some bling to the style. You could use a bobby pin to secure your knot if you don't want to use a clip.
The 2nd hairstyle is a half up, half down ponytail which we flipped under with a topsy tail (affiliate.) We then flipped the ends back through to form a voluminous loop. We added a bracelet which we found at a local discount store to spice up the style. You could find one that matches your earrings, necklace, or dress!
Both of these styles were created using 2nd day curls, which we originally did using a NuMe curling wand (affiliate.)
By the way, in case you are wondering which dress she chose in our last video... She chose dress #6 and had a great time at the dance!
Hope you are all excited for #prom season! #promhair #promhairstyle
How To Heart Hairstyle, Double Linked Heart Ponytail
We wanted to share one more cute, last minute, heart hairstyle today before Valentine's Day is over! Have you decided how you are going to wear your hair for Valentine's this year?
In this tutorial, we are using a technique we saw on "Cute Girls Hairstyles" a few years ago to make these hearts. We love this double linked heart ponytail because it is adorable and fairly quick and easy to create.
Double Linked Heart Ponytail Video Tutorial: (Click here to watch the video directly on YouTube.)
In our video we show 2 ways this heart ponytail can be worn. If you have long hair, you could actually add another set of hearts beneath the braids for a 3rd variation.
To complete this heart ponytail, you will need a medium size hair tie and several small hair elastics. That's it!
We have been "hair blogging" for 11 years now! And during each January/February of those 11 years, we have posted several heart shaped or heart themed hairstyles.... which adds up to a lot of hearts. I actually counted over 40 heart hairstyles on our site so far! So, if you are looking for more heart hair ideas, click on our Valentine's hairstyles to see more. (Some of them are from before we started doing YouTube and are picture tutorials only.)
Obviously this hairstyle would be cute for Valentine's Day, but could also be worn for other occasions. I'm thinking this would be adorable for a flower girl at a wedding or just a regular school day.
Side Swept Formal Hairstyle For Prom
Today's hair tutorial video features a gorgeous side swept Prom hairstyle! This style is easy enough to do on yourself at home (no braiding required) and fancy enough to wear to a formal dance. This upstyle would be perfect for Prom, Homecoming, Weddings (brides and bridesmaids) Communions, QuinceaƱera, Sweet 16 parties, dates, and other special occasions. A true Princess Hairstyle!
Side Swept Prom Hairstyle Video Tutorial: (Click here to watch the video directly on YouTube.)
My daughter just turned 16 and will be going to her first semi formal High School dance in a few weeks. We have been experimenting with several styles and she is trying to decide which one to wear. So many options! We love this one because it looks pretty from the front and the back. It would be great for pictures! We also love that this style is heatless, quick and easy, but looks like you spent a lot of time and effort on it. Since everything is held together with elastics, I would imagine that this style would hold up to dancing and not fall apart easily as well!
The trick to making this hairstyle soft, pretty, and slightly messy looking (in a good way) is by gently pulling the twists apart for extra volume and fluff (as shown in our video.) Your partings and placements of the elastics don't need to be perfect either. Any imperfections just add to the charm of the style! Leaving a few wispy strands of hair out around her face will also help soften the style.
We purchased the jeweled rhinestone flower hair clips shown at the end of our tutorial at our local Ross. Hair decorations or accessories can really make a formal hairstyle go from ordinary to extraordinary... and can help cover up any "mess ups" in the style as an added bonus. ;)
Supplies needed to recreate this hairstyle:

Triple Tuck Heart Hairstyle For Valentines Day
A cute and easy half up heart hairstyle, perfect for Valentines Day! We love that this triple tuck heart is a little more grown up for teens and women to wear, as well as for little girls of course.
This adorable heart style was inspired by a photo we saw on Instagram by "Pr3ttygirl79." This heart design was created using a simple flip and twist technique which we have used many times before in our heart hairstyles. But the way the 3 strands are stacked and tucked into the half ponytail is what makes this style unique! I love the woven look the "tucking" creates. So pretty. The best part? No braiding required!
Triple Tuck Heart Hairstyle Video Tutorial: (Click here to watch the video directly on YouTube.)
Supplies needed to recreate this hairstyle:
- The tool we used to bring the sections through is called a "topsy tail" (affiliate.) As annotated in our video tutorial, you will want to stagger where you are pulling the strands through to keep the sections separate. If you do not have a topsy tail, you could use your fingers.
- 4 small/medium hair elastics.
- Hair product to help with flyaways.

Greek Goddess Ladder Braid, Wedding and Prom Hairstyles
Today we are sharing a beautiful "Greek Goddess" inspired hairstyle tutorial featuring braids, twists, and curls, creating a lovely Princess Hairstyle! This would be a pretty hairstyle for weddings, Prom, Homecoming, recitals, school dances, church, communions and other special occasions.
Greek Goddess Ladder Braid, Video Tutorial: (Click here to watch the video directly on YouTube.)
We have combined a lace french braid feathering technique with rope braids (or twist braids) to create the vertical ladder braid on this half up hairstyle. We love how simple and elegant this style turned out.
As mentioned in our video, we used our curling wand to create her loose curls for this hairstyle. Click here for our curling wand tutorial. You could also crimp or wave your hair if you desire to achieve texture and volume. If you want your style to be more voluminous, you could tease her hair before placing the ladder braid. A bubble effect between the braids could be achieved by using a rat tail comb as shown in our video tutorial (above.) Bobby pins placed under the twists would help to hold your bubbled hair in place if you decide to go for that look.
Supplies needed to recreate this hairstyle:
- 1 medium size, clear hair elastic
- Several clips or hair ties to temporarily section and hold the hair while you are working.
- Finishing hairspray
- Curling wand, crimper, waver, etc. (affiliate)
Flower Girl Hairstyles! 5 Braided Rose Hairstyles, Part 2
Today we are sharing 5 more cute hairstyles using braided flowers! We didn't realize how many hairstyles using flower braids we had done until we started looking through our blog, and we didn't want to leave any of these out. So we decided to make a part 2 of our braided flower hairstyles series! If you missed part 1 (which includes 5 more hairstyles) you can find that here: Braided Flower Hairstyles, Part 1.
We thought all of these styles would be so cute for Spring (or any time you want to wear gorgeous rosettes in your hair!) These would be great hairstyles for flower girls, brides, the Prom, Homecoming, recitals, school, church, communions, etc.
5 Braided Rose Hairstyles (Part 2) Video Tutorials: (Click here to watch the video directly on YouTube.)
These hair tutorials are a compilation of flower braid hairstyles we have shared in the past on our channel (some are fairly recent and some date back several years.) We love going through our hairstyle archives, as I'm sure some of you have forgotten about these styles, or have never seen them. We like to group similar styles together to make it easy for you to find that perfect hairstyle for your special occasion!
Hairstyles included in this video (with timestamps)
#1 Double Twist Top Knot With Rope Braid Flower 0:07
#2 Dutch Braided Rose Hairstyle 1:11
#3 Romantic Side Swept Braided Rose With Curls 2:24
#4 Braided Rosette Half Up Hairstyle 4:03
#5 Winding Lace Braid With Rosette Accent 5:18
All of the hair flowers in this video are made basically the same way... by rolling up a standard braid into a rosette bun. But as you can see, the variations of what you can do with these roses is endless! These hairstyles will work best with long, or medium length hair. Hairstyle #1 can be done on fairly short hair.
P.S. If you would like more detailed tutorials for any of these hairstyles, we do have the originals on our YouTube channel (which are slower and each step is explained using commentary.)
