How to make a Greek hairstyle?

Let's take a look at step by step how to style your hair in the Greek style. In this option, a long chain is used, you can replace it with a bandage.

1. The upper part of the hair must be gathered at the back and secured temporarily with hairpins. We leave the bangs free. We fix the lower part of the hair with an elastic band.

2. Insert an invisibility into the tip of the chain and fasten it to the back of the head. Then we wrap the chain around the head and fix it. In the same way we will make the second circle.

3. Divide the lower part of the hair into two strands.

4. Weave two braids from the lower strands, wrap them around the head and fasten them with invisibility.

5. The free part of the hair at the crown, which we fastened with hairpins, we curl with tongs or wind it on curlers.

6. And now we will wind each curl on a finger and fasten it with the help of invisibility to the head until we put everything.

7. And this is how our Greek hairstyle for long hair will look like in the end:

The hairstyle can be slightly fixed with varnish, but the main charm of the Greek style is in naturalness, even some slight negligence, knocked-out strands will only add charm to the owner of such styling.

The use of a bandage is traditional for a Greek hairstyle, this is, let's say, its “trick”. Consider styling options for medium length hair, they are suitable for girls who do not wear bangs:

1. we divide the hair into a straight parting, carefully comb it;
2. we put the bandage on the head so that it is lower in the back than in front on the forehead;
3. we separate strands of hair and fill them under the bandage so as to hide it under the hair;
4. we fill the strands arbitrarily, here special care is not required, it will be more natural.

And it will take us 10 minutes to create a hairstyle.

How to make a Greek hairstyle with a bandage- option number 2:

1. we will comb the hair and collect it with our hands, as if we are going to tie it in a ponytail;
2. tie the ends of the hair with an ordinary elastic band;
3. take a bandage and attach the ends to it with the help of invisibility;
4. now you need to gradually wind the hair around the bandage, wrapping it as tightly as possible with a tube;
5. as a result, you get a roller that you need to press to your head, and put a bandage on your forehead;
6. we will distribute the hair evenly, we will fill the broken strands, and the Greek hairstyle is ready.

This is what a Greek hairstyle looks like for medium hair, and the following step-by-step guide will show you how to style a shorter length - to the shoulders.

The styling feature is that short strands are twisted under the headband or bandage, starting from the area just below the ears. Longer strands start from the temples.

You don’t need to stretch your hair, but your hair should not be too loose either.

Greek hairstyle goes to blondes, and brown-haired women, and brunettes. It looks perfect on medium-length hair, long-haired beauties have more room for imagination, but it will also take more effort to build a hairstyle.

Starting to create a hairstyle in the Greek style, prepare in advance all the necessary accessories: a comb, invisible hairpins, hairpins, hairpins, elastic bands, bandages, hairspray.

The bandage looks better if it differs by 2 tones from the hair - either darker or lighter.

Use a simple bandage - then the hairstyle can be decorated with decorative hairpins, and vice versa: a decorated, bright bandage is not combined with hairpins with rhinestones and pebbles.

Headbands in pastel colors or imitating gold and silver look very noble.

Gum braids look good on hair. Plus, they're softer than beaded headbands.

When choosing a bandage, pay attention to its elasticity and strength - the weak will not hold the hair. But tight ones can leave a red stripe on the forehead and press the head to the point of pain.

Choose the thickness of the rim depending on your appearance - those who have a low forehead and thick eyebrows will not fit harnesses and wide models of rims and headbands.

Since the Greek hairstyle is characterized by naturalness, lightness and airiness, do not abuse fixation products. Especially cute light disheveledness looks in the owners of wavy hair.

A variety of Greek hairstyles allows you to create them for any situation and occasion. They are almost universal: simpler styling is appropriate on weekdays, and more complex options, using jewelry, pearl threads and tiaras, will emphasize the beauty of an evening dress and will look great on special occasions.
