Hair Inspiration: Cameron Diaz/Miss Hannigan

 

 

 

 

Happy Sunday Everyone,

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend.

Having gone and seen Annie at the cinema the other week I was really lusting over Cameron Diaz's hair in the film. I really wanted to recreate one of the looks and have chose this one above. Using a French braid in an up do.

See how I got on below,

This hair style is super easy to do, all I used was the above, along with some hair clips.
I first started by washing my hair, I then used this amazing argon oil heat protecting spray (which was only 99p from home bargain's, yes that was 99p) before blow drying.

I then parted my hair to a side parting and separated into 3 sections. Back and 2 sides. Use your hair clips to clip the back section back so it isn't in your way.

 

Then to start braiding, I am sure you all know how to do a French braid, do not worry if it goes a bit messy, just do it roughly and keep it back so it goes in the direction of around your head. Secure with a hairband and do the same the other side.

Once this is done take the hair bands out and take all of your hair (including the braided hair) and bring to the nape of your neck. I then twisted my hair round and wrapped round into a bun. Wrap a hair band around the bun to secure and use bobby pins if needed to keep in place.

And hey presto that's it, like I said super easy, just spray with some hair spray and using a rat tail comb pull out some of the hair so it is not tight to your head. Giving a more messy laid back look.

 

To finish off the look add some big hoop earrings and you will be channelling Miss Hannigan in no time.

Thanks for reading

Oh and also if you haven't see Annie yet I would really recommend seeing it, the cast are brilliant and how they brought the story line into the modern world was so clever. A definite must see.
