Hairstyle "horns": types and subtleties of creation

A variety of women's hairstyles today is simply amazing. But there are also types of styling that are always relevant, for example, "horns." We will talk about what this hairstyle is and how to make it on hair of different lengths below.

This styling option is familiar to many. In fact, "horns" are bunches or half-bunches that are located on the top of the head - on the top of the head.

The number of bunches themselves on the head can be different (from 2 to 6), but the paired classic “horns” are most popular.

The main difference between such styling and bundles of all varieties is its shape.

Like any other hairstyle, this one has its own age restrictions. Of course, if desired, it can be done at any age. The only question is how appropriate it will look and what impact it will have on the perception of its owner by other people.

Best and most appropriate "horns" look on girls of preschool and school ages. They make them even more cute and gentle, and most importantly, the hair does not interfere with the child himself. And the creation of such a styling does not take much time and effort.

Not bad “horns” look on young girls, especially if such a hairstyle is created for an informal pastime: friendly parties, corporate parties or even hiking. Laying here will help to stand out from the crowd, look unusual and stylish.

As for older women, such a hairstyle is not recommended for them. With "horns" on their heads, they will look ridiculous and inappropriate in any situation. The only exception may be a theme party or carnival.

There are several main varieties of such youth styling. They differ from each other in their appearance and location on the head.

According to this criterion, styling is also subdivided into several subspecies.

• Complete. In this case, absolutely all the hair on the head is twisted into horns, and there are no free strands left.

• Smooth. The hair is collected neatly, completely, and the styling itself is very smooth, without protruding hairs.

• Sloppy style. In this case, the hairstyle itself looks like it was done in a hurry, but in this negligence both style and light romanticism are visible.

• With or without bangs. The bangs can be left simply as during normal styling, or it can either be braided into one of the horns or twisted around it.

• With pigtails. There are two types: braids are braided on the occipital part of the head along the parting, or the “horns” themselves make their braids, and the rest of the hair is left as usual.

• Partial styling. This option involves leaving the hair on the back of the head in a loose form, and the "horns" themselves are made on the crown.

Moreover, depending on the appearance, such styling can be suitable for a friendly walk or any holiday, or for going to a school or preschool institution.

Everything is simple here: the "horns" can be located on the crown, on the temporal zone or on the back of the head. Especially popular is the hairstyle with the crown styling.

The quantity depends on the desire of the girl herself. A hairstyle with two "horns" is considered a classic, but in life there can be much more: from 2 to 6.

On this basis, "horns" can also be of several types.

• High or low. Here it is implied precisely their height. High ones look more youthful and mischievous, but low ones are almost a classic, and often it is this styling that is confused with ordinary bunches.

• Tight or loose. Tight "horns" are smoothly tightened, without separate knocking out strands and hairs. Free "horns" are those that, when walking or running, can sway from side to side, that is, they do not have rigid fixation.

• Created from curls of hair or from braids. Such styling options differ in appearance and shape. So, the “horns” of braids always look more voluminous and elegant.

Even a seemingly simple hairstyle such as “horns” has many varieties. This allows you to change the styling option every time and always look fashionable, stylish and unusual. But the most important thing is that creating such an image does not take much time and effort, and also does not necessitate the acquisition of additional expensive accessories.

To create such a hairstyle at home for yourself or another person is quite easy and simple. First of all, you need to prepare everything you need.

• Tools for "styling." It is better to give preference to mousse and hair spray.

• Massage brush. It should have a soft pile, it is used for preliminary combing of curls.

• Comb comb. The need for its use arises when dividing hair into strands and when braiding braids.

• Elastic bands of various sizes. It is better to choose the softest accessories that will help to fix both the strands and the "horns" themselves reliably, but at the same time they will not harm the hair.

• Invisibility. Best if they are of different sizes and colors.

If you wish, you can immediately prepare additional accessories that will be used at the final stages of creating a hairstyle. It can be a variety of bows, ribbons or hairpins of various shapes, colors and sizes.

In this case, the difficulty of creating is determined precisely by the length of the strands. Therefore, it is necessary to use mousse for styling hair or foam with a high degree of fixation.

• Wash your hair with any mild shampoo.
• We apply styling agent to wet curls and dry the curls by lifting them from the roots with a massage brush.
• We divide all the hair into two parts along the parting and tie two high tails. And the ends of the curls are seasoned under the gum so that they do not stick out.
• On top of the received "horns" we fix three-dimensional decorative gum. They will give them the necessary volume and shape.
• We fix the obtained hairstyle with varnish, if necessary, smoothing the hairs to achieve perfect smoothness.

The creation of “horns” on short hair involves the use of bright and voluminous decorative accessories that are designed to compensate for the insufficient length of curls.

If the haircut is very short, and I really want to become the owner of such a styling, then additional strands should be used. First, they are fixed on the head, and only then they create “horns” as described above.

There is already room for imagination and creating more hairstyles. You can make classic "horns." To do this, you must perform the same actions as in the case of short hair. And you can do it differently.

• Comb hair and apply styling.
• Using a comb-comb, we make a zigzag parting.
• From the temporal, crown and occipital parts we collect strands of hair and form high tails from them.
• Directly over the rubber bands we comb the hair to obtain additional volume.
• We twist the hair tied in tails in a spiral and wrap it in a circle around the elastic bands, forming "muzzle".
• We wrap the remaining free hair along the entire length with a curling iron or on curlers to get light curls.
• The “horns” themselves are sprayed with varnish and we fasten the ends of the hair with elastic bands with the help of invisibility.

The longer the curls, the more options for creating "horns" come to mind. Owners of such a head of hair can both use the above step-by-step descriptions of the creation of styling, and make another interesting option.

• Comb your hair and apply a small amount of styling.
• Comb all the hair to the crown and make two high tails - there should not be free strands.
• From each tail we braid a beautiful and even pigtail-spikelet.
• Then we twist the braids around the elastic bands in a spiral, additionally fixing them with invisibility.
• In conclusion, it is necessary to sprinkle the "horns" with hairspray.

Twist pigtails in the "horns" should be in opposite directions.

So that the "horns" not only turn out to be stylish and beautiful, but also do not harm the hair, should follow the recommendations of specialists:

• doing “horns” is not more than 2-3 times a week, and the maximum time to wear such a hairstyle is up to 9 hours;
• at night, you need to dissolve and comb the hair;
• to fix the hair, it is necessary to use styling products, especially if the curls are short or thin;
• elastic bands for hair must be soft, and invisible - not too tight.

These simple recommendations of hairdressers, as well as a strict adherence to the instructions for creating such styling for hair of different lengths will allow you to easily make beautiful and unusual "horns" for yourself and your friends.
