This Goddess Locks Updo Hairstyle Can Be Worn Anywhere
The beautiful part about this look is its versatility. The braids can be worn up or down also. In an updo like this, you are ready for an invigorating night on the town. Take them down and you have a maintenance-free hairstyle for daily life also. This comes in especially handy when it’s hot outside. Tish Summers used a light auburn in a customized ombre hair color technique. The contrast of the light auburn color gives this goddess locks updo hairstyle definition. On top of the hair color, Tish added some intricate accent pieces and gold strands throughout the hair. These accent pieces are strategically placed to highlight different aspects of the hairstyle also. The vivid fuchsia accent pieces are placed along each of the inverted braids on the right side of the hair. They compliment the long black and light auburn ponytail that flows down the other side.
Tish used an outer braid technique to create height in the ponytail also. As the ponytail lays down the right side of the model’s face, Tish Summers left out pieces of hair in the front to give the illusion of an even longer ponytail. She created a slight side part on the left side to let a small amount of hair dangle over the side of the model’s face.
