Single Front Twist | Short Hairstyles

August 25, 2010

Here is a very simple and cute hairstyle idea for keeping your bangs out of your eyes. It can also be done on any length of hair (short or long), whether or not there are layers, and can be done in under a few minutes.

I have promised that I will be adding more short hairstyles, given that I and my youngest daugther have short hair. Again, since the hair is shorter, you really are limited on what you can do in terms of braids, etc. Moms, this one really is for you! I wear this all the time!!!

Single Front Twist Hairstyle

Items Needed: Brush or comb, two bobby pins, hairspray (if desired).

Time Requirement: 2-3 minutes

Skill Level: Easy

Happy Hairdoing!

    I love this hairstyle, especially for me, but the bobby pins won’t stay in my hair without showing like that. I have long hair and lots of it, but it’s fine, so there’s not a lot of hair to anchor to and the ends majorly poke through. Suggestions, Mindy? I’ll take em!

    Love that hair style! I’m so glad you shared how to do it, I’ve always fumbled when doing it on my hair and my daughter’s hair. Thanks for all you do!

    Can you give me a hair do that would hide itself under a wig. It has to be as flat as possible. The wig is about shoulder length. THIS IS URGENT!!!

    Thank you SO much — my 8-year-old is growing out her bangs, and we are running out of ways to pull them back while in that in-between stage! She has very straight, very slippery hair that doesn’t hold barrettes or clips very well, so we resort to braiding or twisting almost every day. It was fun to add the front twist to our repertoire! :)

    Hi!
    I am from India.
    I just love all the hairstyles on this site. :)
    However being an Asian I don’t have that straight hair texture. My hair are a bit wavy.
    Can you please tell me some quick daily hairstyles for me.By the way my age is 28.
    I thought you might need it for suggesting me some hairstyles.

    I am really excited about this site. I am a hair illiterate mom of a 6 year old. I have been trying this one for the last hour. This is my first one ;) . I can’t figure out the simple french twist part at the beginning. This is how helpless I am lol. When you say that it is a french twist because you add a little hair in to the front piece and then twist, I can’t see how you do that. Sooo how do I do that? No matter what I try it’s not looking like yours. Help! Thanks so much for doing and showing all these cute styles!
