How to do a half up half down hairstyle in 5 steps

For the upcoming season of Fall/Winter 2021, the creative team of Maria Nila encourages you to get out of your classic ponytail rut. Re-think the everyday updo by implementing a more casual look with an elegant half-up setting. Effortless beachy waves in a tight up-do will make the look all set for the festive season.

Half ponytail step by step

Apply heat protection by using Quick Dry Heat Spray and apply our salt water spray Salty Mist for light hold
Create beach waves by using a big curling iron. Work through the hair, section by section. Don’t curl the ends of the hair to achieve those soft beachy waves
Section off the top of the hair and create a ponytail
Take a small section of hair and twist it around the elastic band. Attach with a hair pin and set with our hair spray Extreme Spray
Finish with Styling Spray and Shimmer Spray for a flexible and shiny result
