A real funky style with twist: take different sections of hair and twist them from scalp to tip until looks like a coil and pin the coil section by a hair grip to head. Play with the tips or ends to look spiky. Repeat with another section until whole head is done. Many models on runway wear this style, but only works for some faces.

When it comes to short hair, updo get a new meaning. It's no longer limited to the idea of having hair pulled up or making braids or ponytails in different fancy styles. However the main idea remains the same and that's creating a more formal look.

Depending on the length of hair, you need to play with hair texture to create a distinct look that is true to your real, beautiful hair.



If its long enough then you can have it piled on top and leaving random tendrils fall around the face or maybe pull it up to the top of head and dress it with a fashionable ribbon.



If its too short, then you can pull it up to the crown or brush it into a quiff hairstyle. Or you can use a combination of both.










You can also use jeweled hair combs, hairpins and barrettes to add a tweak of color among your beautiful waves of hair. They can serve a dual-purpose of holding and decorating hair at the same time.



How about softly pulled it back and twisted into a bun at the nape and secure it with an adorable and attractive hair stick.

When you have short and medium-length hair, accessories and styling products become your best friend. For unruly curly hair always start with smoothing product to prevent frizz by keeping the hair cuticle smooth and then complete your style with finishing products. Fast-drying non-aerosol hairsprays for example are ideal for manageability that lend to a beautiful style and help the hair feel soft and natural.

If you think of updo for a prom night and decided to opt for hair jewelry then make your selection carefully though, because you need to complement not only your hair but also your entire outfit.
