Twist a Chopstick in Your Hair
Chopsticks originated in ancient China and are the traditional eating utensils for many Asian cultures. Chopsticks have also become a part of trendy, casual hairstyles. The style you make with chopsticks can be refined and artistic or restrained, for everyday wear. The proper application of the stick will secure your hair and keep it from falling out of place. While it tends to work better with longer hair, it can work with multiple lengths. Take some time and practice until you master the style.
Instructions
1. Place the stick within easy reach.
2. Gather your hair into a ponytail at the back of your head. You may place the ponytail as low or high as you like.
3. Grasp the hair with one hand and begin to twist it. Continue to twist until the hair coils in on itself, forming a circle or bun. Tuck the loose end of your hair into the bun.
4. Hold the bun in place with one hand. Grab one chopstick with the other hand. Slide the pointed end of the stick through the edge of your bun at the spot where the loose end is tucked.
5. Push the stick forward, away from your head, twist it slightly and then push it back again towards you. This creates a sewing motion, or back-and-forth action, with the chopstick. This allows the chopstick to embed in the bun while catching the loose piece tucked there. Continue the motion until you have worked the stick from one end of the circled bun, through the other side.
6. Let go of the bun and the hair will stay in place, held by the chopstick. Repeat the process with a second chopstick, if you wish. Place the additional chopstick at a slight angle to the first one.
