There are a great many varieties of hairstyles in the Greek style. This styling never limits your imagination. But there are basic types of Greek styling.

Most often, this type of hairstyle is performed by owners of long hair. The design of the knot consists in collecting the bulk of the curls on the crown, stabbed with hairpins and decorated with ribbons or flowers. In this case, it is imperative to release the flowing curls at the face.

This type of styling is created by collecting hair and forming a semblance of a hat, which is decorated around with braids, beads, pearls or, as in the classic look, gold cords. At the back, the curls can be loosened or braided.

There are many options for performing this type of installation. You can weave one large braid or form it from several braids, decorate with ribbons or bright plaits. Braids can be braided from the temples or at the back of the head. For owners of thick hair, it looks spectacular. With thin curls, the braid is stretched in different directions, thereby forming a volume effect.

It is easy to execute and does not take much time to create. It is necessary to curl your hair, collect it in a ponytail at the crown, while forming curls. The tail is decorated with ribbons or rhinestones.

The listed types of hairstyles in the Greek style are by no means a complete list. Modern hairdressers and stylists resort to creating modern versions of hairstyles, stylizing them for different looks.

There is a stereotype that any styling can be done by hand with long hair. However, even girls with short hair can indulge in feminine styling. A step-by-step guide will allow you to correctly create such a hairstyle on hair of absolutely any length.

Even a non-professional will be able to create a Greek style styling for long hair. The most popular hairstyle, which we associate with antique beauties, is performed using a hoop - a band around the head. With its help, it will not be difficult to make styling from long curls and does not require special skills. In addition, accessory stores offer us a wide range of such headbands. You can easily choose the texture of the material from which it is made, the color and shape.

To create such a hairstyle, the curls are carefully combed, and a bandage is put on over the entire head of hair. For convenience, the hair can be pre-curled and combed. And strand by strand of curls along the entire length are selected and thrown over the edge of the bandage. A hair roll is visually formed along the working part of the bandage. Very long hair can be twisted in the palm of your hand and then placed behind a headband.In order for the hairstyle to last a long time, the roller is fixed with "invisible" or small hairpins. All styling is fixed with hairspray.

A beautiful hairstyle can be created on long hair without using a headband. It is necessary to make a fleece and weave strands into light openwork braids on both sides of the head, and carefully fasten their ends. The hair on the crown must be combed, given volume and fixed at the back of the head. Braids are neatly pinned on top of the hairpins. To create a finished look, the hairstyle is decorated with a beautiful hairpin.

On long curls, another Greek-style hairstyle looks great. To create it, the hair must first be washed, dried and curled in small strands. Curls are slightly straightened with your hands. After that, part of the hair is fixed on the crown, and part remains loose. It is important to create the effect of hair carelessly disheveled by the wind.

Curls are perfectly braided into braids. To form Greek braids, the entire volume of hair must be divided into several equal parts and fixed at the roots. Next, you need to braid light braids to add volume. The braids are rolled around the hair tie in small tufts. The hairstyle is decorated with ornaments and fixed with varnish.

Curled long hair can be collected in a beautiful ponytail, entwined with a tight braid, braided from the total volume of the tail. Such a discreet design is suitable for the office, and if you add decorations, you get styling for an evening version.

The cocktail version of the Greek hairstyle is a shell-bun. The hair is divided into a straight parting and fixed in the tail. The curls in the tail must be distributed into three equal parts and twisted around the elastic one by one, forming a bundle in the form of a funnel.

Medium length hair is great for Greek styling, so all hairstyles that look great on long hair can be easily created on medium curls.

Styling "Malvina" will be neater and more practical to wear with medium hair length. To do this, the curls are combed on the crown and strands from both sides are fixed on the back of the head. The locks of the face are released and curled. Slight negligence will not spoil the overall look of the styling.

Another styling is a shell. The ends of the hair curl, the entire volume of the hair is neatly twisted around the palm and, with the help of hairpins and “invisibles”, is pinned to the head. Thus, a vertical ridge is formed. The strands of the face can be curled.

Owners of even very short hair will be able to create a hairstyle in the Greek style. You can curl the curls on a very narrow curling iron in thin strands, comb it gently and fix it with a rim / bandage in several rows.

From hair about 5 centimeters long, you can easily form a styling in the form of a braid that braids your head. To do this, the hair must be treated with a styling agent. Gently combing your hair from your forehead, weave the curls into a braid, twisting your head. The end of the weave must be fixed with an elastic band and hidden inside the weave. There is nothing wrong if the strands are disobediently knocked out of the structure. Slight negligence will not spoil such a styling.
