Casual Half Up Long Curly Hairstyles

A long casual curly updo can be described as soft, sexy, loose, carefree and not too overdone. Generally, the top half or sides of the hair is pulled, tied, or pinned back and the back is left out to hang down below the shoulders. Bangs can be swept over or across or just tied back completely. This type of hairstyle can be worn everyday at any event. These types of half up hairstyles are generally curled, pinned, tied, teased, gelled, waxed, brushed out, and lacquered into place. Styling time varies depending on how much work is done to the hair, meaning it can be as little as 10 minutes for natural curly hair types, or up to 1 hour and 30 minutes if your hair needs to be curled using rollers or heat appliances. These looks are great for keeping the hair out of the eyes and off the face, and they also hold their shape really well and prevent moisture sending them flat and lifeless.
