Preparing the Hair
Creating a bridal updo with kinky curly hair requires some preparation. Start by washing and conditioning the hair with a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. After rinsing out the conditioner, apply a leave-in conditioner and detangle the hair with a wide-tooth comb. Once the hair is detangled, apply a curl-defining cream or gel to help define the curls and keep them in place.
Creating the Updo
Once the hair is prepped, it’s time to create the updo. Start by gathering the hair into a high ponytail and secure it with an elastic. Then, divide the ponytail into two sections and twist each section in opposite directions. Wrap the twisted sections around each other and secure them with bobby pins. Finally, use a few more bobby pins to secure any loose strands and add a few decorative hair accessories if desired.
Finishing Touches
To finish the look, spray the updo with a light-hold hairspray. This will help keep the curls in place and add a bit of shine. If desired, you can also add a few curls around the face for a softer, more romantic look. With a few simple steps, you can create a beautiful bridal updo with kinky curly hair.
