Options
There are quite a few options for creating hairstyles using this item, but the simplest and most popular is the bundle. It can be done in minutes, while at work, at home or in transport.
For this you only need to collect hair in a tail and twist it around itself. Thus, a lump on the back of the head is obtained.
To fix it, you will need a pencil that is threaded through this “design”.
To create a more playful option, you can release a couple of curls in front, and for a stronger fixation - apply varnish on the hair and fix it with not one, but two pencils.In this case, they are threaded into the beam crosswise. The result is a certain Chinese version of the hairstyle, which is appropriate both in the business environment and in an informal setting.
A variation of such a popular hairstyle is two bunches. This will require a little more time and skills. To begin with, the hair is well combed and divided into two equal halves. Each is collected in a tail and twisted in a spiral. Then, a pencil is inserted into the center of the beam to fix it. In this case, the ends of the strands can freely hang, and not be fixed with a pencil.
This hairstyle is more suitable for medium-length curls, when it is not always possible to fix all the strands into a bundle.
The next type is the prototype of the “shell” hairstyle. It is best to do it on long curls. To create, you will need certain skills and dexterity to make the hairstyle quite tight. First, you need to carefully comb the hair, and then collect it in the tail without fixing it with an elastic band. Then they must be twisted so that not a single strand comes out of the resulting harness. As you proceed, hair should be lifted up. When the ends of the strands are twisted, they should be hidden under the tourniquet. Then gently stretch the pencil from top to bottom and fix the result.
This option is suitable for festive events, so additional hair jewelry will be appropriate here.
To create beautiful wavy curls, curls on medium or long hair is also possible using a pencil. On wet hair, you need to apply foam and comb. Then take a curl of the required thickness, depending on the desired volume of curls, and wind it on a pencil. At the same time, the ends can be fastened with an elastic band for reliable fixation. Do the same with the rest of the strands. After that, depending on the time provided, the hair can be left to dry naturally or use a hairdryer.
In conclusion, the pencils are removed. As a result, you get neat and uniform curls that will not lose their shape for a long time.
It is important not to forget to throw each strand through a pencil.
Today, braiding with a pencil is popular with girls of all ages. In order to braid such a braid, you will first need to comb your hair and make a tail. Depending on preferences, you can make a small pile on the head. Then in front of the rubber should be a pencil. After that, two strands are taken along the edges of the tail and are thrown over it. Three locks are made of these locks, and the weaving of an ordinary braid begins. Then each curl is thrown through a pencil and connected to the already begun scythe.
Thus, the braid can be braided to the end, or it is possible to the middle of the hair. Then it is fixed with an elastic band, and the pencil is removed. The result is unusual voluminous hairstyle, which, if desired, can be decorated with a bow or hairpin.
This type of braid is increasingly chosen by brides who decorate it with hairpins, chains or flowers. Also, the end of the braid can be hidden under the total mass of hair and fixed, thereby obtaining a kind of bagel.
Thus, you can braid two braids, where one will be located slightly higher than the other. But this option is more suitable for schoolgirls and girls of a younger age group.
