Casual Half Up Long Straight Hairstyles
A casual long straight half up hairstyle can be described as smooth, sleek, simple and not over the top. Half of the hair (usually the top or sides) is generally pulled, tied, or pinned back with the back left out to hang down below the shoulders. Some other variations involve teasing the top for extra height or leaving sides wisps to hang down. Bangs can be swept over or across or just tied back completely. This type of hairstyle can be worn everyday at work, home, to the shops and even to important events and interviews. Styling time varies depending on how much work is done to the hair, meaning it can be as little as 10 minutes for simple pinned looks up, up to about 45 minutes for more intricate styles. They are generally quick and easy to put together and don’t usually require a visit to the hairstylist.
