The Half French Twist
This is a fresh take on the standard French twist, a half-up half-down variation that manages to be both flirty and sophisticated. With this version you get the classic look of French twist, but with a lot less work—simply twist and pin and you’ve got this style down!

Best for: All hair lengths

Accessories: Try some ear cuffs if you fancy wearing a bit of jewelry. Or simply slip a bold hair pin or slide into your twist.

Difficulty Level: Easy

Try This: During the day, opt for natural makeup. Think eyeliner, mascara, and your favorite lip color. For special occasions, introduce a smoky eye to keep the focus on your face.
