A bit of history
The amazing mysterious Ancient Greece. .. It was from there that most of the beauty recipes came to the world of modern women. The beauties of those days knew the beauty of beauty, managed to remain incredibly seductive for decades, and at the same time, mind you, they did not use the services of make-up artists and stylists, they did not resort to plastic surgery and innovative cosmetic products. And the laying, sometimes uneasy, did on their own.
This country is considered today the birthplace of hairdressing art and cosmetology, it was there that so refined and beautiful decorations were used to decorate the laid hairstyles that even Hollywood stars today are not averse to decorating themselves with such gizmos on a solemn day.
The creation of hairstyles then took really long time. Each strand of hair twisted into a spiral, then the resulting locks were fixed on the head in a chaotic order( "snapped" - hence the name: "Greek pinch").
Used to be popular and styling with parting: a part of the hair in front( bangs) finely curled, and the rest of the hair, also curled, but already in larger curls, was fixed with a tape on the back of the neck and thrown back.
A little later, the masters, driven by the desire to stand out, learned to use hair and braids in the hair. Often all this perfection was crowned by tiaras.
Wedding hairstyles in Greek style today
This hairstyle continues to be the hairstyle of the goddess, once descended from Olympus. And because it is still beyond competition. Of the endless variety, the following are especially prominent:
- wedding braids collected at the bottom( both strict and negligent)
- hairstyles with weaving( loose hair, previously curled in curls, laid by weaving either on the side or on top);
- collected curls( curled hair is fixed either with ribbon or with flowers);
- high beams with flowing curls.
For greater efficiency, many wedding hairstyles in the Greek style have additional elements: ribbons, tiaras, flowers.
A classic example of one-sided laying is a French braid( one-sided) bordering the head like a wreath. After the first completed circle, the remaining hair either collects into the tail( or bundle), or it plaits further to the vertex( in a spiral).Excessive severity is mitigated by several loose strands at the temples.
Another variant of high stacking: the hair gathered in a bundle and fastened to the back of the head are braided into braids, some of which are small and tight, and some are loose. Hair is fastened with hairpins and in the same way decorated with diadems or flowers. The longer and thicker the hair, the more spacious the hair.
Similar, but somewhat complicated wedding hairstyles in Greek style, in which the whimsically intertwined strands and braids are stacked in incredibly beautiful drawings on the back of the head( as an option - the "French shell", but all in the same Greek style), were especially popular, special tenderness andthe ease with which flowers are woven( both artificial and living).
Is it possible to design such hairstyles at home?
Self-styling of hair in Greek style is possible at home. After all, wedding hairstyles in the Greek style only seem complicated in execution. Of course, some of them are only valid for real aces of hairdressing art, but some you can still do yourself.
Even the usual "Malvinka" can become a truly Greek hairstyle, if the tail is collected from small braids.
Another, no less simple version - the same tail at the top, gathered from curled locks and braided with a mesh of several thin, loose braids or even flagella.
By the way, just curly hair can be collected by the same pigtails and flagella, but already coming from the sides.
Options available for independent execution include spits with tails collected from one side. But be sure to remember the volume. Tight weaving here will not look: the Greek style is sophistication and at the same time lightness. The braided braids are made more freely, the strands are lightly combed. And they pay attention to the so-called rims: thin hoops, diadems, ribbons, flowers( to choose from).
There are no restrictions on the weaving technique, the number of braids and the number of strands. You can only be deterred by your imagination.
