The spikelet is a very beautiful and simple weave to remove all the strands sticking out. On straight hair, it looks very elegant and sophisticated, and on curls - airy and deliberately careless. Do you think it is very difficult to do this hairstyle? But no! We will tell you how to braid a spikelet for yourself in 5 minutes!
1. Classic spikelet
Start with basic weaving techniques, fine strands and moderate tension - and then you can experiment. Such a spikelet is good because it turns out to be very uniform and even a little strict.
2. Spikelet for long hair
If you need to completely remove long hair, weave a spikelet thinner and tighter. And if you want free carelessness, leave the strands a little relaxed.
3. Spikelet for short hair
If you need to braid short hair, take the curls as little as possible and pull them close to your head. The protruding tip at the bottom can be tucked into a small bun.
4. Free spikelet
Braid a spikelet of large, wide strands and stack them very loosely. The hairstyle will be slightly sloppy and very effective, but at the same time it is perfect for wavy hair.
5. Two spikelets
Two spikelets on both sides look very cute and help to pick up even the thickest hair. It is better to start weaving from the forehead and gently, almost in a straight line, lead to the back of the head.
6. Spikelet from the tail
Although the spikelet is most often woven close to the head, a very interesting hairstyle is obtained if you make it from the tail. Just make sure that the turns and tension remain the same.
7. Spikelet "fish tail"
In this weaving, the strands do not get gradually, but are formed from all the hairs at once. "Fishtail" resembles a spikelet from a regular tail, but looser and lower.
8. Reverse spikelet
The essence of such a spikelet is that the strands do not overlap, but pass under each other. The weaving will turn out to be even more voluminous and original if the usual is tired.
9. Spikelet on one side
A graceful asymmetrical spikelet extending from the temple to the back of the head can be continued with a regular oblique. It turns out a very delicate and graceful hairstyle for romantic looks.
10. Spikelet around the head
Start braiding at the side of the ear or slightly higher, closer to the forehead. Make the spikelet tight and dense, and gradually take it in a circle, hide the end and straighten the turns with your hands.
