Easy Tutorial: CL 2ne1 Inspired Hair

Hey cuties! Today I have my first hair tutorial and it's something I've been doing a lot lately. It's inspired by CL in her music video for "The Baddest Female". My sister said that she liked this hairstyle and that I should shave my head to keep it forever. I'm not going to do that because I don't have the guts but it's the thought that counts. Anyway, this is actually really easy and quick. You guys are going to have to excuse my translucent eyebrows for a little bit longer, I'm currently trying to learn how to fill them in without looking really fake since I have really blonde hair. Plus, the lighting kinda washed out all the color I put into them. :( Does anyone have any tips for me?

Step 1: Separate your hair into two parts. Since my hair is really fine I only need to put up the hair on the crown of my head but anyone else might want to go by the top of your ears. Then spray some heat protectant, I'm using the Aussie Hair Insurance.

Step 2: Curl your hair. I like to keep the strands in these Little Bo Peep style ringlets when they cool because I found that it makes even curls. Then spray it with some hairspray.

Step 3: Let down the second layer and curl that the way you like it. You want to part your hair more than you usually do. My part is usually a little bit more to the left (my left) than in this picture. But for this hairstyle you want more volume on one side of your head.

Step 4: Brush back the hair from the top of your ear and pin it with some bobby pins. I like to twist it once so it will stay in place more. To get looser curls or waves, you want to lightly brush out your curls 

Here's what the end result is! This is great for second day hair if you use some dry shampoo and if you have really long hair this will look fantastic. I'm excited to wear this when my hair gets longer. This does work for straight hair if you are too lazy to curl your hair. Let me know if you like this or if you ever try it! See you next time! XD
