Sleeker Half Bun
Turn your hair into an absolute eye-catcher with the Sleeker Half Bun! The elegant variation of the half bun adds a touch of class to your everyday look and is simpler than you think. Start by finding a middle ground between the top of your head and your neck to pull back your top hair. To ensure the bun doesn't lose tension, it's best to use a touch of texture spray, which gives your hair the necessary grip. Let a few strands fall out intentionally to softly frame your face. With a few shiny hairpins, you can give your creation the final touch – and a few drops of hair serum will make the ends look shiny and healthy. So quick and so chic – give it a try!
Ponytail with Scrunchie and Fringe
Discover the playful diversity of the scrunchie and let your hair shine anew with an airy, chic ponytail! Grab your favorite scrunchie – whether in pastel shades, vibrant colors, or even with glittering details – and tie your ponytail in a fresh, stylish way. Create a look with a scrunchie and some loosely falling fringes that exudes spontaneity and zest for life. Your mane will love it because scrunchies are gentle and don't leave an unsightly crease – perfect for giving your extensions or natural hair a break from tight hair ties. Let your hair make a big impact with this small yet mighty accessory!

Care Tips for Stressed Out Palm Styles
When you create a palm style on your head, your mood might never drop below the tree line, but your hair could suffer from the exotic style. That's why you should give your mane some extra attention. Regular hair treatments and intensive conditioners are your allies to ensure your hair still looks healthy and strong even after sporting a palm look. Don't forget to use lukewarm water when washing to protect the hair structure. And before reaching for hair ties and texture spray, make sure to use a heat protection spray so that blow-drying and other styling tools don't cause damage. A tip for in-between: Let your hair dry naturally sometimes and give it a break from constant heat styling and elaborate updos.
Palm Hair Styling: Windproof and Wave-Riding
To make sure your Palm Hair style doesn't collapse at the first breeze, it needs a solid foundation. Use a bit of hair wax or gel to strengthen the base of your braid. Then work with a texturizing spray that makes the hair more manageable yet still flexible. The ribbon around the braid is not only a stylish but also a functional element. By tying it tightly at the base of the braid, it provides additional support. In windy conditions, a hair spray with extra strong hold can be used. But be careful: don't use too much of it, or your exotic canopy will quickly look petrified. Adventurous ones can also use bobby pins to hold individual 'leaves' in place without being too conspicuous.
Accessories: Stylishly Transform to a Palm Paradise
While the palm itself proudly stands at the top of the style ladder, the right accessories can further personalize the tropical look. How about adding blossom clips to transform your palm look into a true summer paradise? Colorful or patterned ribbons also make the hairstyle appear more vibrant and can be coordinated with the style of your outfit. Fans of minimalism opt for simple gold or silver hairpins that subtly shine in the hair. And for those who love something particularly exotic: Delicate hair jewelry in the shape of a butterfly or small fruits adds an unforgettable accent to your palm splendor. And remember: Your hair is the canvas and accessories are the colors with which you create your personal masterpiece.
