Hair "Tutorial" Up Do – Before I Chopped It Off!

Posted on December 8, 2011March 30, 2020 by Elaine

Known to notoriously post late, this is no exception 😛  I managed to snap some (terrible) shots of how I used to do my hair before I chopped it off whenever I was having a bad hair day – which I have to tell you the few weeks before I cut my hair I had a bad hair day everyday! 

I was asked to show how I did my hair after I took a picture of the back of my head in this post so I’ll try my best to explain the pictures.  Keep in mind that the end result never looks EXACTLY the same!

IMG_4990
^wet hair with product in it^
I started off with wet hair and applied some product.  I like to use a hair cream, something with some hold in it as my hair tends to get really frizzy.  You will need to use what works best for your hair texture.  In this case my hair was wet so the next step will be to blow dry but obviously if my hair is already dry I skip this step.

IMG_4992
^Blow Dryer with Diffuser attachment^
If you have curly hair then you’ll know how important it is to blow dry with a diffuser attachment.  When I shop for blow dryers I always make sure it comes with a diffuser for curls and a concentrator attachment for straightening. 

IMG_4993
^Diffusing my hair – settings on hot and medium speed^
I know some people would say to use the warm setting on your hair dryer but I always just use the hot or it will take forever to dry my hair.  Another trick with curly hair is to actually not dry it bone dry or else it will frizz.  The diffusing is just to help speed up the drying so you don’t have sopping wet hair.  Air drying is always best for curly hair but it’s not always practical.

IMG_4994
^To avoid the “flat head” look I make sure to diffuse the top/back of my hair too^
Blow drying with my hair curly usually only takes a few minutes.  As I said, I’m just helping to speed up the drying process.  Besides I HATE the feeling of wet hair on my back!

IMG_4995
^all diffused out^
Before I had my hair cut, this is typically how my hair would look after blow drying.  I had long layers in the front that used to be bangs but since it was shorter than the rest of my hair it would tend to bounce up more.  So most days I would pin my bangs up which is how this up do will begin.

IMG_4996
^pinning up the bangs^
I take 2 bobby pins and use them to pin my bangs up and off my face inserting them in a crisscross pattern.  You can push your bangs forward for more volume if you want.  Try and use bobby pins that match your hair colour, don’t do what I do LOL!

IMG_4997

It should be noted that usually this hair do does work best when my hair is completely dry already.  I find that it holds better and it just all around looks better.  Remember, I have naturally curly hair.  If you have stick straight or slippery hair you may have to add some texture by:

  1. Curling your hair first.  It doesn’t have to be neat as you will be putting it all up but generally it’s easier to pin up curly hair that straight
  2. Making sure your hair isn’t “too” clean.  “Dirty” hair has some build up which make is easier for up do’s
  3. Use a dry shampoo to again “dirty” up your hair. 

Ok so on to the rest of the tutorial.

IMG_4999
^Take the side section of your hair^

IMG_5000
^Twist it^

IMG_5001
^Bring the twisted section to the back of your head^

IMG_5002
^Secure with two bobby pins, criss crossing them^

IMG_5003
^Do the EXACT same thing to the other side^

IMG_5006
^Now take the remainder of your hair and twist up^

IMG_5010
^Fold ends under the twist part that’s at your head^
If you have long hair you can fold the end back towards the bottom of your head and tuck it under the twist part.  If your hair is shorter you can leave the ends sticking up or fold under as well – depends on the look you want.


IMG_5015
^Secure with two goody spin pins – one at the top side and one and the bottom side
(in my case the left side – it depends on which direction you twist!)^
You can also use bobby pins if you don’t have spin pins, you may just need to use more.

And here’s the end result.  As you can see the “twist” at the back ended up looking more like a bun. Remember for me I can NEVER get the same result twice LOL!

IMG_5017
Here is how it looked in my previous post.  I did do this updo at the end of the day before going out for the evening so my hair was completely dry.  That may have made a difference in the look.

IMG_4597
Voila!  Nothing too fancy but this up do would make me feel put together and help keep the frizzy hair off my face 🙂
So there you have it, I don’t know if it will work for everyone’s hair type, but if you try and out and are successful please let me know!

    Vicky, I definitely think it could work you may just need to add some texture to it like with curls or product. I wonder if you could do it to Jasmine’s hair!

    Oh yes a diffuser is a must if you’re going to wear your hair curly! I know that air drying is best but I find with my hair if I air dry it my hair looks really flat on the top. I like to use a diffuser not to neccessarily add volume but just make the curls more bouncy. Also, the product in my hair doesn’t get “crunchy” like it can if I air dry it.

    Is there a hair dryer you would recommend with a diffuser attachment?

    This looks pretty, Elaine and the best part is that it seems easier to do than the way it looks. I always use a giant hair clip and call it a day. Will give this a try.

    Thanks Annie! I think it *could* work but you’d probably have to put some texture into it. Maybe do it after not washing your hair and add a few messy curls here and there to help it hold! Those goody spin pins might be easier to work with than bobby pins too. They have smaller ones for thin hair as well!

Come with me to pick up the art piece created from Come with me to pick up the art piece created from the flowers in my bridal bouquet! 🥹❤️

Getting my flowers preserved and turned into this incredible piece was one of the best decisions I made during my wedding planning. ✨

Amanda and her team are extraordinary artists (and wonderful humans!) who give your flowers a new life and preserve memories. Every time I walk past this piece on my wall, my heart glows with flashbacks of my wedding day. 

If you have an important event that includes flowers, do yourself a favor and book with Parched to get them preserved. They accept flowers from across Canada, and have worked on blooms marking all occasions of life, from graduations, baby showers, weddings, and memorials. They can even create pendants using flower remnants!

If you’ve followed me for any length of time (or If you’ve followed me for any length of time (or met me in person for like 5 mins!), you’ve heard about my love for @lezethelabel 🤩

This brand is phenomenal. I love every piece of theirs that I own and wear a Lezé item almost every day. 

@lezethelabel is:

✅ WOC founded 
✅ Canadian
✅ Ethically produced 
✅ Sustainably made using innovative fabrics (like 🌽 or material made from recycled fishing nets!) 
✅ THE COMFIEST 
✅ Designed for real bodies! (Big pockets, lots of stretch, extended sizing)

The humans in charge are also incredibly kind and generous. ❤️

➡️ Since it can be hard to figure out sizing when purchasing online, I put together this little lookbook for you. Basically, I wear a L in their items made from their recycled fishing net fabric, but an XL in the corn, since they’re a little closer to the body and I like a baggier fit in that fabric. I typically wear a size 14. 

If you’re interested, check them out! And feel free to use my discount code (TORONTOBEAUTYREVIEWS15) for 15% off! 🔗 in bio. 😊

Dark circles? I don’t know her. 🙃 If you’r Dark circles? I don’t know her. 🙃

If you’re in the market for a new eye cream, I highly recommend checking out @sahajanskincare’s Golden Glow Eye Balm. ✨ It’s formulated with ghee (!) and feels sooooo silky and gorgeous. This powerhouse ingredient has been used for thousands of years in Ayurvedic medicine, and for good reason! This eye balm is mega hydrating but feels light and melts right into your skin 🤩 

In addition to ghee, it also includes rose oil and eyebright - these high-performance ingredients work together to reduce puffiness, fine lines, and dark circles. 

This Canadian brand is WOC-founded, and products are cruelty-free as well as eco-friendly. 🇨🇦🐇🌍

Have you tried @sahajanskincare yet?

If you know me IRL, you know I’m a cleaning frea If you know me IRL, you know I’m a cleaning freak. 🙈🧼But, since I’m allergic to everything (fragrance, harsh chemicals, etc 😖) and also care about the environment, I try to find options that are natural as well as effective. 🌍🫧 That way, they’re gentle on my skin and the world, but tough on germs and dirt!

We’ve been using @nelliesclean dish sticks, stain stick, laundry soda for the past few months and LOVING them. ❤️ I even purchased Nellie’s Oxygen brightener recently, which is a bleach alternative that boosts color and keeps whites white. They WORK. (And look very retro chic!)

If you’re looking for effective, naturally-derived cleaning products from a Canadian company, I highly recommend that you check out @nelliesclean! 🇨🇦
