This workshop has become quite popular on the Internet. Its authors - stylists Salon Mario Russo in Boston.

They offered a very interesting idea of transforming popular hairstyles "fish tail" becomes "lobster tail."

Lobster tail - it's such a hairstyle for long hair, which is a relaxed braid on the side. Style suitable for everyday office and party. Try it!

Step 1. hairstyle looks best on hair that had been washed a day ago, and even on dirty hair . It is necessary to create a texture that will be good to keep the shape. To do this, apply on dry hair texturizing spray, in extreme cases, dry shampoo . The product should be removed from any hair oils and sebum.


Step 2. Leave a few strands of the front, and the rest of the array, remove the hair on one side, securing clamps. Those strands that are left around the face, screw into thin curling hair (diameter 2.5 cm) to create volume around the face.


Step 3. Large array of hair divided into two parts: a front section (near the temple) and the back (near the back). Of the rear section to create the same three strands and make them flagella (twirling in one direction). Clipped to the curls are maintained, and could continue to work with the front section of hair. If flagella spin up - do not worry, you can always fix everything as it was done originally.


Step 4. From the front section to take two thin strands. Each of them to twist in the flagellum in one direction (to the face) and then to twist between them, making one revolution.


Step 5. Combine the front and back section of hair, making one complete rotation around each other. Fix the invisible behind the ear (need 5-6 pins to keep a good haircut). This will be the base of "lobster tail".



Step 6. Sprinkle hair texturizing spray again. The remaining tail wrap in not tight tourniquet. Hair will be better to stay, if you work with thin strands: first, every little twist, then wrap it's tail. Throughout the tail attach tail invisible, hiding them in an array of hair. Hairpins create as if the skeleton of the tail, it is based and do not allow the curls to unwind.


Step 7. Attach the tail end of a thin rubber band for hair. Sprinkle with hair lacquer strong or moderate fixation and hair ready.
