1. MESSY PONYTAIL
A messy ponytail not only offers a stylish, carefree look but it's also incredibly forgiving towards split ends and breakage. If your hair has been through the wringer with heat styling or coloring, pulling it back into a slightly disheveled pony can help minimize the appearance of damage. To create the perfect messy pony, tease the crown slightly for volume and pull out a few face-framing strands for a softer, more natural effect. Using a soft fabric hair tie can also prevent any additional stress on your fragile strands, keeping your look chic without compromising hair health.
2. MESSY BUN
The Messy Bun is a popular hairstyle for women with damaged hair. It is easy to achieve and can be done with minimal effort. It is perfect for those who don't have the time to style their hair in the morning. It also helps to hide split ends and other signs of damage. To create the look, start with a high ponytail and twist it into a bun. Secure the bun with a hair tie and add a few bobby pins for extra hold. Finish off the look by adding a few curls or waves with a curling iron. The Messy Bun is a great way to keep your hair looking stylish while also protecting it from further damage.
