Hey everyone so today’s video is going to
be on some very sleek smooth hairstyles That are also very quick and easy to do so I
really hope you enjoy it and let’s just get Straight into it so this first hairstyle is
going to be on how to create a Sleek middle Parted hair look first you want to make sure
that your hair is nice and smooth so really Give it a good brush before you start any of
these hairstyles then you just want to take a Comb and simply measure up from your nose
to find the kind of Center where you want To put the center part in so I just measure
right from here and then just drag it upwards That should really help you to create the most
perfect middle parting so then the next step Would be to create kind of a little bit of a
passing here which is going to be the pieces Of hair that we’re going to tuck behind
our ears so I’m just going to take the End of this comb and just kind of drag the hair
forward just about where my ear starts like this And the same on the other side So then once you’ve just kind of sectioned off
these two pieces you just want to gather the Rest of the hair out of the way so you can either
clip it up with one of your hair clips or just tie It back [Music] so now we have these pieces out
you really want to smooth it out with your comb And just kind of tuck them behind your ears
[Music] now you can actually take a smoothing Gel or any kind of gel or cream that you might
have just to really smooth the flyaways down And to keep it very Sleek so I’m just taking this
one which is just a styling cream from Shaka Juan I think that’s how you say it I don’t know I’ll
leave a link to it below um but to be honest this Is just one that I’ve had for quite a while now
so I’m just putting a little bit on my fingers And then just running it down across
where we’ve swept behind our ears [Music] And then I’m actually taking one of these
little brushes they come with you know a Lot of brow products and things and just sort
of help to really smooth those flyaways down And once you’re pretty happy with how this
looks it doesn’t have to look perfectly Smooth yet because we can do that at the end
what you want to do is take a hair elastic Now this is the first way if your hair is
long enough to reach behind the back or What you could do instead is just take a hair
grip and just grip the hair back behind your Ears but I’m just going to show you this way
with the elastic take the two sections that We’ve just took behind our ears and tie
it around the back of your head [Music] Just like that and now I’m going
to unclip the rest of my hair I’m going to take a little bit more of that cream
again just on my finger and on that little brush And then just make sure everything is super
smooth and in place it’s quite hard to see with This viewfinder not a mirror and then that is the
first look it’s such a perfect Sleek easy quick Go-to hairstyle especially if you want something
a little bit more sophisticated for work or maybe
If you’re wanting something when you’re going
out but you just want it to be super quick and Easy with not a lot of stress and stuff involved
so for my next hairstyle I’m gonna go for a Sleek Kind of half up half down look so first you just
want all your hair down and straight as normal Again and you want to comb some of the hair
back kind of towards the back behind your ears And you can gather up as much or as little
as you want depending on how much hair you Want up so then when you’re happy with
the kind of height and position of it You just want to tie that hair up with a
hair elastic or with a claw clip [Music] So then next I’m going to take my comb and
I’m actually going to pull out two strands Just to frame my face now I’m actually going to
be pulling them up from around about here so we Still keep this very slick back style at the sides
but we’ll have two bits down at the front [Music] So then when you’re happy with the two strands
that you’ve pulled down you just want to take Your gel again or some hairspray and just flatten
the rest of it down so it’s really smooth [Music] And also put some smoothing serum on the
ears front strands as well you can also Take some hairspray and a little comb and
just brush back any flyaways as well foreign Look again it’s super simple and
quick and easy to do so next is The Sleek middle part High pony so
first you want to start by creating A little section at the front and these
are going to be the pieces that we’re Going to sweep back as the middle part so
I’m just going to take a section like this And you want them to be fairly large um width
sections just so it kind of makes a bit of a Presence when we do it up as the middle part but
for now I’m just gonna tie them up out of the way Like this with a little hair clip probably looks
a bit weird but anyway so next we’re gonna slick The rest of our hair back into a ponytail so
I’m just going to take my brush and just brush It all back as smooth as I can again I don’t
feel like you have to worry too much about Getting it as perfect as possible because you
can do a lot at the end with the gels and the Creams and stuff to make it a bit more sleek and
you can do the ponytail as high or as low as you Would like but we’re actually going to put um
these two little strands we’re going to tie Them around the back underneath the ponytail so
it’s best if you do your ponytail that little bit Higher if you do have shorter pieces that you’re
going to pull back [Music] so then once you’ve Tied back your ponytail you then want to take
down the strands that we kind of put up earlier There we go and then you just want to
straighten up the middle part just to Make sure it’s in the right position next
you’re going to take a hair elastic and What we’re going to do is gather this hair
back like so and then tie it up underneath Our ponytail again try and get it
as smooth and straight as you can Foreign
[Music] And then again you know what I’m gonna say by
now take the smoothing gel or the hairspray Even that little comb if you have it and
just flatten those pieces down so it’s nice And smooth and what you can do if you don’t
want the kind of little elastic showing if Maybe your hair is that little bit longer
you can actually wrap the little elastic Um the hairs that are left over it just around
the base of your ponytail just to disguise it You just want to take it like this and then wrap
it around and then just secure that with a hair Grip and that’s it another super quick and easy
hairstyle that you can definitely use for work Or even if you’re just wanting to have a bit more
of a Sleek sophisticated look so now our hair’s in The ponytail it actually brings me on to the next
hairstyle which is the bubble braid so you just Want to start again with the same process that
we just did with the ponytail and then you want To brush the ponytail out to get that super
smooth and you need quite a few little hair Elastics and what you want to do is just take the
first one and just tie it kind of about here so Just a short distance away
from the base of the ponytail Just like so and you’ve created like a little
mini bubble in your ponytail so then you want To take another hair elastic and do the
same thing a little bit further down again Try and leave them the same distance but
it can be hard sometimes to just kind of Play it by eye and just see where is the
best place to do the next little hair tie [Music] so then once you’ve done all of the
mini bubbles you just want to open them up With your hands like this just to make them a
little bit thicker and also if you’ve left some With a little bit of a slightly bigger Gap you
can just kind of push them up a bit too [Music] I love how it’s still Sleek with it being a
Sleek middle part at the front but then it’s Just a little bit more kind of exciting
with the bubble braid behind and then Another hairstyle you can do with the Sleek
ponytail is to First twist it like this [Music] And then what you want to do is wrap that around
the base of the ponytail like this foreign [Music] And if you have any kind of flyaways or
anything that’s just a little bit untidy At the back again you can use the hairspray
and the smoothing serum and the little comb Um just to kind of brush those hairs
up and the hair grips as well [Music] And then that is the final hairstyle I really
