Viking Inspired Hair Tutorial

Happy Thursday, friends!  The week is almost over, and I am one day away from my birthday!!  It’s all so very exciting!

I have been trying more fun styles with my hair lately now that my length will allow it and have been loving finding simple ways to add a little something extra to my hairstyle for the day.  I wore my hair like this yesterday and received a ton of compliments (from the husband especially because he instantly told me I looked like Lagertha) so I wanted to share the look with you today.  The fact that it literally takes maybe 2 minutes to achieve, and only requires your hands, and a few bobbi pins is even better right??

The easiest was I can describe how to do this look is:

  • Use day 2 or 3 curls.  I can generally go a few days without having to use dry shampoo in my hair, but, may need to touch up a few random curls once I have styled it initially with a 1″ curling iron.  If you need dry shampoo on your roots I suggest doing that step prior to styling.
  • I pulled back two small sections of hair (hence the 2 bobbi pins shown above) using one edge of the pin to act as a tool to section off the hair.  Once I have grabbed the amount of hair I wanted for the top section, I pinned that back first.  The motion I use to pin back is the have the edge that opens up pointing toward your face as it hugs against your scalp – so the bobbi pin will look like this >.  You then push the bobbi pin into the section of hair to hold it in place.
  • Repeat the second step with as many sections as you wish!

It’s super easy to do, and will stay in place all day.  Is this a look you would try?
