Park Bom Rope Braid Hairstyle


1.Start off with clean hair. Wash your hair if it is dirty and blow dry in sections in a low or medium setting. Brush through your hair to take out any knots.
2.For this hairstyle it is best if you have straight hair although it doesn’t really matter much since we are going to braid the hair later on. Straighten your hair if you wish, but please use heat protection products!
3.Brush your bangs/fringe in front but if it is too long and are covering your eyes then you will have to sweep it aside.
4.Gather all of your hair except your fringe/bangs and carefully make a neat high ponytail. Please take your time to make it was neat as possible and use a comb if it helps.
5.Take the hair that you have put up in a ponytail and divide it evenly in half.
6.Taking one side of the ponytail and twist it around several times (if you have taken the right side then twist it to the right and if you have taken the left side then twist it to the left.) and then place it under the other half (please do not let go!) and then using your other hand and twist it around several times as well and place it under the other half. Repeat the process over and over again until you reach the end of the ponytail. Secure with a hair tie. Okay, so some of you might have been confused on how to do this step so CLICK HERE to see what I was trying to explain to you all :)
7.If you would like to, spray a little holding hairspray onto your hair to help hold the look.

Gui Gui High Bun Hairstyle


1.Start off with clean hair that isn’t greasy. It’s always important to keep this in mind as it might ruined the hairstyle's look. Wash your hair if it is dirty and blow dry in sections in a low or medium setting because we do not want to expose too much heat onto your hair.

2.Brush through your hair maiking sure there are no knots in your hair or your fingers will get caught when you are making a bun. It doesn’t really matter if your hair is wavy, curly or straight beacuae we are going to put it in a bun anyway. But since we are trying to copy Gui Gui’s hairstyle, you can straighten it. Just make sure you keep your hair safe from the heat by using heat protection products.
3.Using a hairbrush, separate your fringe/bands away from the rest of your hair and sweep them to right side.

4.Grab all of your hair and carefully make it into a high, neat ponytail and secure tightly with an elastic hairband. Once you have the ponytail ready, here is a way to make the bun: Twist the tail either in two sections or one (For people who have longer, thicker hair may want to separate the tail into 2 pieces). Guide the twist into a coil around the elastic band. For people with longer, thicker hair, bobby-pin the coil into place as you wind it around and around the hairband. People with shorter, thinner hair can often get away with winding and twisting the coil first and then inserting bobby pins about 45 degrees apart from each other (think of your bun as a circle).

5.Now carefully using the end of your hairbrush or just simply your fingers, carefully pull out a few strands of hair out from the bun you have just created. This will create the cute and messy look.

6.Spray with hairspray to hold the look (optional) FINISHED!

NOTE: Adding a Blue Raglan Tee and a Multicolored bead necklace will make it the perfect Gui Gui finishing touch!

Annie Liu High Ponytail Hairstyle


1.Greasy hair or dandruff is a big NO for this hairstyle so hop in the shower and start washing your hair. A little trick for extra silky knot free hair is to take your comb in the shower with you and before you rinse off your conditioner take your comb and brush your hair from roots to end and then rinse off your conditioner. After you have finished washing your hair, blow dry your hair in section using a low or medium setting.

2.Now before you move onto the next step you will need straight hair. So grab your straightener, plug it in and allow it to fully heat up. You should always apply any heat protection products onto your hair before you straighten your hair. Now take your straightener and straighten your hair from root to end including bangs/fringe.
3.Take a comb and brush your fringe/bangs to the right side and secure with a bobby pin that is the same color as your hair color so it isn’t too visible.

4.Now that you have your bangs out of the way, we are moving onto the ponytail part. Grab all of your hair BUT leave a section of hair from the front left side and make the highest neatest ponytail you can make and secure it with an elastic band.

5.Now take the front left section of hair that you did not put in a ponytail and bring it back and wrap it around the elastic band that you used to secure the ponytail and carefully tuck it in underneath the elastic or use a bobby pin to secure it in place. You shouldn’t be able to see the elastic band by now because you have wrapped a section of hair around it.

6.Now to hold everything in place, it is important to spray your hair with some holding hairspray. Enjoy your Annie Liu inspired hairstyle!

Angela Zhang Make Up Look


Products needed:

Foundation – Like Maybelline Dream Matte Powder OR/AND Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation in your Skin tone color

Blush – like Maybelline Naturally Luminous Blush in Gentle Pink

Eyeliner - Like Maybelline Line Express Eyeliner in Black

Eyelash Curler – Like Mac Full Lash Curler

Mascara – Like Mac Dazzle Lash in Black Dazzle

Pink Lip Gloss

Intructions:


1.Make sure you face is clean and free of make up so remove any make up with some remover wipes and wash your face with warm water and pat dry with a clean towel. This is also a good time to apply your favourite moisturizer. Allow your moisturizer to do its job before you move onto the next step.

2.You will now need to apply your foundation. It’s really up to you to choose liquid or powder foundation. You might want to apply your liquid foundation first then lightly sweep on your powder foundation for a flawless effect but this only happens if you have applied your foundation on properly. Make sure you blend it well across your face. NEVER apply too much foundation or it would just look cakey.

3.Take a light pink blush and gently sweep in onto your cheekbones. Remember to smile when you are applying your blush. You should only apply a generous amount, which shouldn’t be too much.

4.I can’t see Angela wearing any eyeshadow in this picture so we are now going to move onto applying your eyeliner. Line your top lashline using a black eyeliner pencil starting at the inner corners then making the line thicker and thicker as you reach the outer corner. You should stop when you reach the outer corner.

5.I’m not sure about you, but the first thing I noticed about Angela in this picture was her lashes so the process of applying your mascara is very important for this look. Use a good quality eyelash curler and curl your lashes. Make sure that they really do go “up”. Then take your favourite black mascara and apply a few coats thickly onto your top and bottom lashes wriggling the wand upwards. Make sure that it isn’t clumpy.

6.To finish this look off, apply a light pink lip gloss or feel free to just use your favourite lip balm. You are now ready to go!

2.You now need your make up base. So use a foundation that matches your skin tone and apply it gently smoothing it out and blending it well onto your face. You could also use powder foundation for a barely there look. But you can use a nice moisturiser as an alternative to foundation.

3.You now need to apply a bit of color onto our face. So use a large make up brush and lightly sweep on some bronzer onto your cheekbones. Find your cheekbones by sucking in your cheeks.

4.We are now moving onto your eyes. Use a small brush and apply a brown eyeshadow that blends easily onto your eyelids and start blending it upwards towards your brow bone. Then carefully apply a little bit along your lower lash line using the little q-tip brush that comes with your eyeshadow.

Koo Hye Sun Hair Guide


1.You can tell that Koo Hye Sun’s hair is nice and clean and that it is in good condition. So before you start make sure your hair is not greasy and dirty. If it is, wash your hair and blow dry in sections with a low or medium setting.

2.If you hair is already straight, skip step 3 and go to step 4 but you might want to read the last sentence of step 3.

3.Plug in and heat up your straightener/flat iron. Brush through your hair making sure it is knot free. Grab your heat defence and apply/spray it onto your hair and brush it out onto your hair. It is important that when you are straightening your hair that you protect it from the heat or your hair will end up dry and unmanageable. Now take you heated straightener/flat iron and start straightening your hair in sections from root to end. Straighten your fringe to the right like Koo Hye Sun and if the fringe doesn’t stay in that position, a little hairspray will help it keep it in place.

4.Grab all of your hair and make a low ponytail at your left side. The ponytail should be sitting on your left shoulder. Secure with a hair tie. Feel free to add a pretty ribbon if you wish. Also carefully pull out a strand of your at your left side to soften the look.

5.You are done. You might want to spray a little hairspray onto your hair to help hold the look. Enjoy!
