How I Created My Half Cornrow Ponytail with a Bun Clip

  Hey everyone! I’m excited to share how I styled my hair into a gorgeous half cornrow ponytail, complete with a chic bun clip. This look took me about an hour to achieve, and I love how versatile it is! Step-by-Step Process: 1. Prep Your Hair: Start with clean, dry hair. I made sure to detangle thoroughly to avoid any snags while styling. 2. Sectioning: I divided my hair into two sections: the top half for the cornrows and the bottom half to remain loose. 3.

I added some silver clips to the braids to make them look more beautiful. Over to you, what is your current hairstyle?
