The way each woman wears her hair is essential to wear a certain look; remember that hair is another element of the body that should be highlighted. The first thing is to take care of the health of the hair, it is not necessary to have a completely straight hair, as many believe, to wear a splendid look, or haven’t you seen those stunning brunette with their curly hair as God provided them, proud of their irreverent and carefree style? In the end it’s a matter of attitude.

If you do not believe it, see how singer and actress Zendaya looks, who had always had her hair smoothed, and recently decided to wear her natural afro hair, which highlights her features and that cinnamon colors that makes her the centre of attraction, of course, this beautiful woman knows very well which look to wear, how to wear it, and above all she takes care of the details of her makeup, accessories, shoes and handbags, a whole diva of the show that was radiant when using the tools at her fingertips for make visible, vindicate and pay homage to the legacy of the African-American community.

That is why the famous singer decided to attend a fashion event in which she wore the classic afro mane that was very fashionable in the sixties to combine a chic and elegant look made up of a multi-flounce transparent dress by designer Schiaparelli, which made her look simply splendid, managing to monopolize the attention of all and win the best comments of the night.

Now, if we talk about what hairstyle should be used according to the occasion, then let’s talk about the famous buns, which have been worn by the most beautiful women since ancient times, such as Cleopatra, who wore her best clothes accompanied by buns that she adorned with hair-bands with jewels that highlighted her beauty.

Also, beautiful actress Grace Kelly, mother of the sisters Carolina and Estefanía of Monaco, became famous for always wearing buns with a lot of hair spray in the fifties and sixties. This actress looked stunning with her dresses tight to the body, and her elegant and sober look that did not accept anything other than a big bun.

But like everything in the world of fashion, buns can be made in several ways and be accompanied by accessories, jewels, hair-bands, ornaments of all kinds, of course, according to the occasion and without exaggeration, not to detract from the main role of either hairstyle or the attire, besides that they can be the weapon of salvation in any unforeseen invitation for which one must act quickly and with practicality, and if the hair does not shine on that radiant day for any reason, you should only turn to a simple bun that will disguise the imperfections of the day.

For example, famous dancer Maddie Ziegler usually wears the typical high bun that has been used for a long time and is still valid, but many famous women wear buns in different ways to achieve highlight their look and beauty in different events. This is the case of actress Elsa Pataky, who has been seen wearing a combination of braids and buns several times, making root braids to then join them all and shape the bun. However, if you have long hair and want to wear this look, you can make a pigtail to braid it and make the bun, you could take it loose.

Following with buns, we must emphasize the fact that singer Rihanna has turned to the famous African little buns in several occasions, which look great with casual and funny looks for those informal occasions and not so formal parties, both in the day and at night. To make these little buns, the hair should be split into small strands, making pigtails and rolling the hair, to later fit a hairpin, preferably the same colors of the hair, by bun.

Buns are also ideal for those occasions in which one should look elegant and with a lot of glamor, with low-cut dresses or with a neck, they look splendid indifferently. In this way, if you have to attend a big wedding or social event, and to choose a dress fitted to the body with a pronounced or discreet neckline, I recommend you to choose a medium bun with an accessory that supports and gives greater presence. In addition, you must choose the appropriate jewellery to accompany a makeup in appropriate shades.

Now, if you want to wear a low bun with ornaments, the perfect occasion is a formal social event such as a first communion, a baptism, a wedding, etc., to give a touch of sobriety and elegance and sophistication to the outfit that has been chosen for that day, and if you do not know how to do it, you should only search in internet for photos of actress Hilary Swank, who usually looks great with this type of hairstyle, which could be accompanied with some accessory of precious stones as this beautiful woman wears.

But buns could have a much more informal and irreverent presentation, without hairspray or gel; on the contrary, we refer to dishevelled buns, looking modern, simple and very chic, as the actress Margot Robbie wears, who is very casual and at the same time sensual with informal and bohemian outfits. To make them, you must mark the hairline in the middle and make a ponytail, to take strands and accommodate them with hairpins to finally have a different and current bun, and if you want to show off a more dishevelled and casual look, parts of the hair should be loosed.

With regard to loose hair, there are plenty of ways to wear it, if you prefer on the side, with the line in the centre, on the right or left, loose backwards or forwards; it all depends on the dress you wear and especially on the clothes you want to wear, because if you wear large and striking earrings, you will not be able to wear your loose hair without throwing it back, since if you wear it forward, the beauty of them cannot be appreciated.

It also happens when you want to wear a choker that will bring beauty to the look, preferably a bun should be used, but loose hair could also work but thrown back with the line in the centre preferably, since it is more symmetrical and the image that is projected highlights the accessories.

Now, if you wear a casual look, spring, with long and printed skirts, tennis shoes or mules, or jeans with ankle boots and a simple and fresh blouse, buns are not needed, as loose hair is appropriate because it adds freshness. But, you could also opt for a ponytail with an accessory that combines with the outfit and makes you feel comfortable and radiant.

But the modern woman always wants to wear a mane in perfect conditions that highlights her beauty and her looks, so you should first consider what makes you feel more comfortable or what hairstyle favours features, if you prefer to wear your hair gathered or loose as famous Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston often do, who always wear their long hair loose; but remember to consider the “outfit” you will wear on the occasion. For this we have some recommendations for you:

-If you want to wear a mini-dress tight to the body, the best thing is to gather hair up with some loose and wavy strands; but if the short dress has straight neckline, you could opt for a high pigtail. On the contrary, if you have long hair with fringes, or smooth or curly hair, it is advisable to leave hair loose.

On occasions when you have to wear long dresses, one option is to wear gathered hair, looking either a precious high or low bun with some accessories like bobby pins. Likewise, to wear this type of dress you can choose braids and pigtails, which makes the look more informal and modern. But you can also opt for loose hair that will make a long dress look great for a night out, and can improve the look with wavy hair that will make you look more elegant.

If we talk about “strapless” dresses that many women wear because they stylize the back and shoulders, you should choose to wear your hair with a high or low bun, a ponytail, gathered on the side, but never backwards, because you would not be showing off your back. In this way, the figure would be stylized more and the details of the dress would be seen from the back.

But at the end of the day, and as I always tell you, attitude is the most important when it comes to wearing certain look, so you choose your outfit properly and wear the hairstyle that makes you feel more comfortable for the occasion. Generally, the most expensive hairstyles are those that should be worn on more formal occasions, such as luxurious parties or very important and conventional social events, since to attend informal parties, meetings, walks, going to the movies, etc., the outfits do not require so much of a hairstyle, but to show off the hair in a natural way without many tricks.

If we talk about accessories to make hair highlight more, whether loose, with tails and even with bows, we have a variety that goes from bobby pins, hair-bands, pins, among others. The idea is that the appropriate accessories are used according to the occasion, the outfit and obviously according to the hairstyle that you look at this moment.
