A bit of history

If you ask yourself and remember how ancient female statues look like or women in the paintings of those times, we will notice that everyone will have beautifully flowing curls.

The sculpture "Three Graces" as an example of female images of ancient times

Interestingly, women and men preferred the luxuriant hairstyle. Often the hair was a symbol of the status of its owner, because only a noble and rich person could afford complicated and expensive styling. The ancient Greek fashion changed from a modest beam to multi-level designs on the head - that’s why even now the hairstyles in the Greek style are notable for such a wide variety.

The hairstyles of the nobility in ancient Greece were distinguished by the complexity of styling.

Historians believe that the first beauty salons, where free citizens could have a haircut and even a manicure, appeared precisely in ancient Greece. Despite the fact that they began to look after hair and shape it back in Egypt, which is several thousand years older, it was in Greece that hairdressing took shape as a craft, and then as art.

Description and technique of performing weaving "Greek braid"

Greek braid - quite simple weaving and does not require special skills, it can be easily braided at home.

The hairstyle is a braid, braided around the circumference of the head, which frames the hair at the forehead and hides between the curls.

This style is suitable for both everyday wear and for festive events. One has only to decorate it with an original accessory - and you can “go out”.

There are different ways of weaving the Greek braid: from the classic version to the original multi-strand weaving. It is performed on long and medium hair, regardless of their structure (straight, curly) and volume.

Classical Greek braid, method 1

You will need:

• hairbrush,
• styling agent
• combing spray
• elastic bands, hairpins and hairpins for fixing.

Separate the hair with a side parting (from the crown to the temporal region) on both sides. The hair remaining on the back of the head, you need to put in a bun for further work. With proper separation, you should have a triangle.

Comb the first part of the hair and divide it into three strands.

If desired, make the original openwork weaving with ribbons.

Then take the second part of the hair on the left side and weave it together with the one that is currently on the edge and is next in the process of weaving. Then continue weaving. After two or three weaves, repeat the addition of a new strand. Need to continue braiding until the hair is ready. Then the braid must be secured with a rubber band or barrette.

Classical Greek braid, method 2

Another option: the hair is divided into two equal parts, braids are woven and then placed on the head in the form of a crown. Fix hair hairstyles and invisible hairpins, decorated with beautiful hair accessories.

In order for the Greek braid to acquire additional volume, you need to slightly straighten the strands from the links of the weave.

What is a hairstyle in the Greek style

Greek hairstyle goes beyond the same image. This is a separate style, and within its framework are created hairstyles similar to those that can be seen in Greek statues. In ancient Greece, not only braids, but also hair designs based on headbands and bunches were popular. The Greeks and Greek women were very kind to the appearance, including the hair, because they attributed the external beauty to the beauty of the inner, morality and spiritual harmony. Beautiful in his inner world man, in their opinion, should have been just as beautiful in appearance. And, of course, women wanted to be like goddesses, to have the same grace and charm. Great efforts were made to create an attractive image, so the hairstyles of Greek women are a whole work of art. Although men did not lag behind them in this matter. For example, the “Apollo bow” hairstyle was recreated by contemporaries from the statue of Apollo Belvedere, looking at which one cannot doubt his male identity.

In ancient Greece, the same hairstyles with braids were worn by both women and men.

The Greek hairstyle for centuries did not go out of fashion and today continues to be relevant.

Festive version of weaving: "The Greek crown of hair"

It will take a little more time, skill and skill to create such a hairstyle than with the classic version of weaving.

Start weaving from the forehead area. Take a small curl, divide it into three strands and begin to weave the French braid “the other way around” (the extreme strand is wound under the next one).

Perform weaving along the hairline, taking locks into the braid evenly on both sides. Weaving continues in a circle until it closes, and all the hair is not removed in a braid. At the end, dock the curls in the usual way and lay the braid in the form of a circle, hide the ends in the middle and fasten it with hairpins or pins.

With this weave, you can emphasize the merits and hide the "defects" of the face. For example, emphasize the cheekbones, forehead and neck line. Typically, the Greek braid is decorated with ribbons, flowers and original accessories, which gives it a refined and festive look. Having learned to weave a Greek braid in the usual way, you can experiment and make various styling.

What is the peculiarity of the Greek braid

The Greek braid can always be accurately identified by some signs.

1. Greek braids should not be braided tight.
2. Used technique "fish tail."
3. Hair itself is also voluminous, airy.
4. Spit does not lag close to the head.
5. A sense of naturalness and slight negligence should be created.
6. Outlines hairstyles are very smooth, without sharp breaks.

To create a Greek braid, you need to master the technique of weaving "fish tail"

For short hair

If the hair is very short, then, unfortunately, braid it in braids is unlikely. But you can still withstand the image in the Greek style. This requires only a comb with fine teeth, hair spray and accessories. This may be a bezel, bandage or ribbon with a characteristic Greek ornament. Hair should be given a voluminous and slightly casual look. To do this, a small stuffing. If length permits, individual strands can be screwed onto the curling. From above, directly on hair, the tape is put on. Haircut is fixed with hairspray.

Greek hairstyle very quickly can be done with a single rim

Circular braid vice versa

The Greek circular braid is called the Greek crown, because it looks especially majestic and resembles the wreaths that ancient Greek rulers wore on their heads. In order to make a braid on the contrary, it is necessary to use a special reverse weave. It is necessary to take a strand of hair and divide it into two parts. Further, a small strand is separated from the right side and joins the left side, but not through the top, as is done in classic straight weaving, but through the bottom.

The circular braid is convenient to start with the left temple. She weaves in a circle, through the zone of the forehead towards the right temple, and then down. In the process of weaving, new strands are added to the braid: after a strand of hair from one part of the braid has been attached to the other part of the braid, another strand is formed from the loose hair and also joins through the bottom. By the end of the weaving all the hair will be put in a braid. The free edge of the braid is fastened with studs so that the ends of the hair, as well as the beginning and end of the braid are not visible. You should get the impression that a wreath is put on your head.

After the braid is braided, you need to stretch the strands slightly.

The hairstyle itself is done very quickly, but the Greek style implies preliminary preparation.

1. In Malvinka, the ends of the hair remain free, so they must be curled. In principle, they can be straight, but this does not correspond to the ideas about the Greek hairstyle, and therefore still have to spend time on the perm.It should be done slightly carelessly, for this, the hair is randomly screwed onto the curling iron, and then slightly torn with your fingers.
2. From the occipital region, you need to separate the strand and make the hair. Gently secure with a thin rubber band.
3. After that, two strands are taken from the temples and superimposed on one another in such a way as to close the gum. Each of them must be secured with a hairpin, otherwise the hairstyle will not hold.
4. Then you can take the following two strands to do the same with them: fasten the cross crosswise.

When weaving Malvinki it is important that each strand was fastened with pins

Malvinka has many options. For example, a different number of strands can be used to create it. To create an image, you can use accessories.

Malvinka will look especially beautiful on slightly curled hair

Greek braid to the side

The Greek braid on the side is a simple hairstyle, which will take no more than 10 - 15 minutes to create.

1. The hairstyle should be fluffy, so before braiding the braids you need to comb your hair well.
2. After giving the volume, they are stitching to one side.
3. A braid is woven from the bulk of the hair, but a few strands of the forehead and temples must be left free. For weaving the braid, the technique of “fish tail” is used, when the hair is divided not into three, but only into two parts, after which the strand is taken from the first and connected to the second part, and so on.
4. Spit straightened hands. It needs to be made as lush as possible.
5. Those strands that remain free, twist into loose flagella and are arbitrarily inserted into the braid. With their help, the effect of loose strands, characteristic of the Greek style, is created.
6. It is necessary to take stealth and in several places to fix the weaving from the inside, so that this is not visible. Fix hair with lacquer.

Greek braid to the side is one of the most convenient for independent weaving.

To create the basal volume, you can use the “corrugation” curling iron. This will help avoid the need to make a pile.

Another name for this hairstyle is the Greek knot. In order to make it, you will need a scrunchy, a "bagel" and a few hairpins.

1. To begin with, the hair should be divided into three parts so that two of them are on the sides and one in the middle.
2. The middle part is collected in a low tail with an elastic band, after which the end of this tail is formed in the form of a bundle using a so-called bagel for hair. The design is fixed with studs.
3. From the remaining hair, starting from the forehead area, two ordinary braids are woven. No need to tighten them tightly when weaving, on the contrary, it is better to slightly pull out the individual strands with your fingers to give volume.
4. The braids are wrapped around a bundle of hair that is in the middle. It is necessary to fix a hairstyle with hairpins.

When creating a Greek node, it is important to make the braids voluminous.

Greek hairstyle with bandage

Perhaps this is one of the most common Greek hairstyles. Not surprising, because it is also among the most simple. It can be done in 5 minutes.

1. First you need to make a pile, but this time is quite small. The back of the head should not be very raised, but it is good if it seems that the hair is thick.
2. On the head dressing dressing. To keep it, you need to fasten it with studs in several places.
3. The hair, located on the sides, curl under the bandage.
4. Now the same must be done with the rest of the hair and do not forget to fasten the structure with several more pins.

A simple Greek hairstyle with a rim is suitable even for those who have not very long hair

Bow of Apollo

On the Apollo sculpture, the Belvedere hairstyle has the shape of a bow, but in our time it has become much simpler and transformed, in fact, into the usual stressed negligent tuft. In the original version it is no longer done.

In order to make a modern "Apollo bow", you need to curl your hair with curlers or curling and make a haircut. Then divide the hair into several strands and fix each of them on the back of the head or slightly higher, so that the result will be a bundle. Strands located in the forehead zone either remain free or, if their length permits, fall from the part towards the temples, and only then their ends are also retracted into the bundle.

To create the "Apollo bow" you will need a lot of hairpins and hairspray, otherwise the hairstyle will not keep the shape

How to weave a Greek braid?

Greek is called a braid, which braids around the head - without twisting its head, namely, braiding. How to do it?

First, make a parting on the top of the head (it is not necessary to divide the whole mass of hair into two halves). Parting can be both direct and oblique. If you have made a side parting, then weave the Greek braid from the part of the head where most of the hair is, and if the parting is straight, you can start weaving from anywhere.

Spit in the Greek style trudges on the basis of a conventional or “inverted”, reverse French spit: the principle of weaving is the same, only strands need to be tied not at the top, but at the bottom of the pigtail.

For those who have not mastered this technique, sympaty.net will tell you how to start weaving it.

At the point where the braid should begin, you separate three small strands and weave them once, as when weaving a regular pigtail. It is important to set the direction of weaving correctly - if you want to get a hairstyle with a Greek braid as a result, then weave towards the ear, along the hairline. Then you take one of the three strands (the one that needs to be interlaced in order), but add another strand to it — from the total weight of the hair, from below or from above — depending on where the main strand is located. You twist together two strands together with a pigtail. Do the same with each successive weave.

To achieve accuracy, you need to follow two points:

• The added order must be uniform thickness (accordingly, the thickness of the main strands will also remain the same).
• It is necessary to take additional locks not from arbitrary points on the head, but along certain lines (below is the hairline, and above it is either your regular parting or a specially conducted side parting separating that part of the hair from which the Greek braid is woven.

How to complete a hairstyle with a Greek braid?

When you dobled to the bottom of the back of the head, you need to decide what you want to do with the remaining hair length. If you left loose strands on the other half of the head, you can continue to weave in a circle, and when the free strands run out, then continue to weave like a regular braid, which you lay with a “crown” and hide the tips under the Greek weave.

In addition to the version with the “Greek diadem”, we can continue weaving an asymmetric braid that will fall on the shoulder, but it looks good only on fairly long and thick hair.

Greek braids on medium hair can be weaved on both sides of the parting to the length of the strands. At the back of the head, such a hairstyle can be combined into a bun or tail, or you can add braids as long as the hair length is enough, and fix them crosswise on the back of the head (something like a “basket” that fits tightly to the back of the head).

Greek braid for long hair can only be element of hair.

To do this, they make a small Greek braid from a part of the hair - from the forehead to the ear (parting while oblique), behind the ear the braid is fastened without reaching the very tips. Then the free mass of hair is laid in large soft curls or waves.

Braided Greek braid can be made more voluminous, fluff - for this you need to pull a little out of the loop weave. This is especially true if you have thin hair and a braid that looks “thin.”

Laying tools for this hairstyle are not necessary, but if it is very important for you that the hairstyle is preserved for the whole day unchanged, sprinkle the finished weaving with varnish. If the hair is heavy and tough, mousse will help make it more plastic and simplify the process of weaving.

Greek hairstyles today

In the Greek style today, you can arrange several options for hairstyles. Most often, they will have a braid, either braided in the shape of a rim, or fluffy and voluminous, falling on the back. Also, speaking of the Greek style, sometimes imply a hairstyle with a bandage and curls hidden inside. The face is most often open, and the hair framing the face is given a noticeable volume from the roots.

Hair style in the Greek style: face open, hair raised from the forehead, but keep the volume

Choice of accessories

If the curls are allowed to flow freely - then almost always it will be wavy curls. The belonging to the Greek style indicates the presence of certain accessories:

• The bandage is the most important "Greek" accessory. It may consist of several threads or even be made in the form of a laurel wreath,
• A wreath is not necessarily a laurel. Floral also emphasize the authenticity of hair. This decoration is important for brides,
• flowers - individual buds can decorate a wedding Greek braid or fasten to a bandage for an even more romantic look.

Flowing wave curls - a clear accessory hairstyle to the Greek style

How to choose a hairstyle depending on the length of hair

Styling option should be selected depending on the length of the curls:

• long hair - any hairstyle in the Greek style will do: braids, bunches, knots. The magnificent braid will look especially successful. Most likely, when creating knots, you will need a lot of studs and styling tools, but you can show imagination,
• hair of medium length - a simple Greek braid will perfectly come out, tall knots with freely hanging curls (curls will turn out to be of ideal length - not too long, not too short),
• short hair - you can experiment with a bandage. Properly tucked and fixed hair hide its true length - it seems that there are still a few turns inside. Or purchase overhead strands on hairpins to create a particularly lush hair.

Simple Greek braid to the side

With all the variety of Greek hairstyles, many stylists call this particular Greek braid. It begins at the forehead and lags sideways, gradually girdling its head in the shape of a wreath or crown. Then the hair on the nape is collected in a bun. This hairstyle is good for everyday wear.

Classical Greek braid - the most modest of all their hairstyles in the Greek style

Hairdo details - the thickness of the braid, the location of the beam, the distance from the braid to the forehead - you adjust yourself. It is possible to take the following weaving scheme as a basis:

1. Well comb hair and closer to the forehead, select three strands. You can position the pigtail closer to the hairline or make a small indent.
2. Begin to weave the braid in the right direction, picking up the strands from the bottom - so that you gradually pick up hair falling on your face. You can leave a few loose curls.
3. Move closer to the back of the head and add new strands. You can braid any remaining hair in a braid or, if you want to make a hairstyle more interesting, leave some of your hair for the future bundle. Secure the resulting braid with an invisible rubber band.
4. You can slightly pull the "links" of the braid to the sides so that it becomes wider.
5. From the remaining hair make a bunch. For a start we collect a ponytail.
6. We put on the tail of the so-called bagel for hair - a special round product made of foam rubber. It is important that the color of the donut be as close as possible to the color of your hair.
7. To add extra volume, you can slightly tail the tail.
8. Gently wrap the hair in a bagel, evenly distributing them around the entire circumference. To hide the ends, just turn the bagel a few times towards the head. Fix the construction of the previously braided braid, wrapping the bundle at the base several times with it. Simple but elegant hairstyle in the Greek style is ready.

The scheme of weaving the side of the Greek braids

It is possible to tangle the head with Greek braids on one side or on both sides. One braid will give asymmetry to your hairstyle and will look intriguingly in moderation. The rim of two braids will be more stringent.

Elegant Greek braid for a solemn occasion

Greek braids are not always compact and modest. A very lush and complex braid that weaves on curled and combed hair is also called Greek. Speaking about the Greek style in the context of wedding hairstyles, they mean this way of styling.

Greek wedding braid on the bride looks luxurious

In order to create such beauty, you need patience and stylist, and models. But the result truly turns the bride into an ancient goddess.Often used for styling rollers to give additional volume and even artificial hair. No cost and without the use of styling tools, clamps, curling and ironing for corrugation. Each time the stylist creates a unique work of art from the hair - you will not find two identical wedding braids. Therefore, there are no standard patterns of weaving elegant Greek braids. The process of its creation depends on what you want to get in the end, but the general principles are the same:

1. Before creating hair, it is better to corrugate your hair - so it will look much more magnificent.
2. In this hairstyle should be several layers - I wonder if they will differ in texture. In order to separate the areas of the head from each other, use a comb with a narrow end and clamps.

Greek Malvinka

Look at the heroines of the series "Rome" (yes, we are talking about Greece, but we mean the ancient world as a whole). Formally, their hair is laid in malvinku - part of the hair is removed from the face and fastened at the back of the head, the rest flow freely over the shoulders. But there are several significant differences.

Free curls flow curls - waving was an integral element of the toilet of a rich antique lady. The top of the hairstyle is very magnificently decorated - the very Greek braid in a circle is braided and volumetric ornaments are added. Hair wrapped in Malvinka slightly elevated from the sides, so that the hairstyle looks even more massive, but at the same time - impressive.

Korimbos is the original name of the Greek knot.

Elegant Greek hairstyle called Korimbos suitable as a wedding

What Korimbos really looked like is probably only historians. Nowadays, this name most often means a bunch on the top of the head, but not tightly tightened, but with playfully protruding wavy curls. For more color, the top of the head is dragged with ribbons, chains, or small braids.

Accessories and decorations

In the Greek hairstyles are often used accessories. This is mainly bandages, rims and ribbons of various widths and configurations. Their great advantage is that they allow you to create a unique image even for girls with short hair. In addition, they are very easy to use. Often, the headbands have a pattern characteristic of the Greek style, for example, depicting leaves of laurel, olive and other trees and plants. For the ancient Greeks, such wreaths had a special meaning. Depending on which leaves were used to make it, they served as a symbol of victory, greatness, fun, and even promised marriage.

The ancient Greeks loved to decorate haircuts with rims and ribbons

Another accessory that first appeared in ancient Greece is the diadem. Initially it was a simple bandage, which adorned the head of the priests and rulers, but gradually it was transformed into a design that resembles a crown. Currently, the tiara is used to create special, festive hairstyles. In everyday life, of course, it is inappropriate.

Indispensable when creating a Greek hairstyle hairpins and studs. The Greeks did not know what it is, but we have the opportunity to feel the convenience of these details. Since the braids are not woven tightly, some strand can easily fall out of them, and the bandage can move from its place. To prevent this from happening, you can fix your hair in strategic places.

Greek braids have never lost their popularity and to this day not only remain relevant, but occupy a central place among the tools for creating luxurious festive hairstyles. For example, most wedding hairstyles are created on the basis of the Greek braids.
