If you are anything like me, you are always on the lookout for a quick, easy, and cute go to hairstyle.  Well, I have good news because I have recently fallen in love with this fashionable “Gatsby Girl” hairstyle. Let me tell you from first hand experience, this style is a lifesaver when your running late or on those days when your hair has a mind of its own. Its pretty, stylish,  and the best part is it only takes about 2 mins!! All you need is a headband, a hair tie, and a couple of bobby pins and you are ready to go.  Follow these simple steps posted below.  Trust me, your gonna love it!

Step 1: The headband- This step is pretty self explanatory but I will talk you through it anyway.  Find a headband (I always prefer one with a 20’s vibe to give it the Gatsby look) and place it around the crown of your head.  Yep, that’s it for this step (easy).

Step 2: The Ponytail- Pull your hair back into a low ponytail that rests at the bottom of your head, underneath the hand band.  Make sure to leave a few pieces of hair out in front to frame your face.

Step 3: The bun- Take pieces of hair from the pony tail and bobby pin them up around the ponytail. Make sure to cover the hair tie.

It should end up looking like this in the back.

Step 4: Finishing Touches- Curl the pieces around your face (if necessary), pin back any stray pieces of hair, and you are ready to go!
