Start spring with a new ’do. We’ve found three fab new ways to wear cute braids—all straight from the stars!
 
The Top Braid
We’re obsessed with Kate Bosworth’s take on the high bun. To start, take a 2-inch wide section of hair at the top of your hair and make a wide braid, working toward the back of your head. Tie off the braid and pull it back with the rest of your hair into a bun at the crown of your head. So sweet and romantic—we love how Kate paired hers with florals and lace.
 

The Side Braid
Lauren Conrad updates her bitty braid for a messy French side braid—still casual, but ultra-chic. Make a deep side part and gather all your hair over to one shoulder. Craft a French braid on the side of your head, and tie off the end with a ribbon, cord or elastic. Buff in a bit of dry shampoo to give it some texture, and finish with a shot of hairspray. Perfect party look!
 
 
The Double Braid
You’ll need longish hair for this look. To get Jessica Alba’s no-fuss style, create a center part and divide hair into two sections. French braid each section all the way to the end and tie them off with a hair band. Attach each of the ends to the opposite side of your head with a bobby pin, and tuck in the ends.  Laid-back glam at it’s best!

i have these really cute pelican hair clips, and i really want to wear them! what's the right way to put them in my hair? every time i try, all you can see is the part that you pinch, so you can't see the cute flower design and it just looks weird. thanks!




Hey girl,

Try putting your hair in a French twist, then putting the clip sideways across the back! You could also put your hair in a ponytail, then pin the bottom hanging part to your head with the clip. Just sit in front of a mirror sometime when you aren't busy and experiment with it! Smile

hey MODS, i have quick hair question. my hair falls a little past my shoulders and its layered. whenever i try to braid it the layers keep falling out. same with buns. any ideas on how to keep my layers in the style i want to wear? thaaanks (:

 

 

Hey chica! I'd put some mousse, or styling puddy in your hair, and then use bobby pins, and maybe hairspray to help it hold Smile

I've tried braiding my hair lots of times, but I can never get it to stay up, I always end up with it down in pigtails or something similar. How can I do a more grown-up style that will rock at school but still be easy?
Thanks!!




Hey girlie -- search "braids" on our site and you can find many articles about chic braids you can rock at school Smile

I usually straighten my hair everyday, because its just super easy to do. But the past two days i've curled it, and it just looks SOOOO much better. And I love curling it! I figure a way how to make it look extra good to. (: So I was wondering...would it be weird to curl it a third day in a row? Because i don't want people thinking i didn't take a shower for three days, even though i really don't care what people think. & Plus i know a lot of people like my hair better curly anyways. Should i just go ahead and curl it for the third day in a row? (: THANKS! (Sorry for the length!)




Hey girl, definitely! I curl my hair each day, and I love it. Don't be afraid to do something different!
