Give your scalp a break from boxer braids and try low braided pigtails paired with a crisp center part. The beauty is in the details, with part of the hair covering the ears and the braids starting right behind the ears.

The center part is a mere starting point to the windswept vintage hairstyle, but it helps to balance the baby hairs and black bows. Make it as messy and voluminous as you desire.

Fall in love with the top knot again by parting your hair down the very center and spinning the lengths into a gravity-defying loop. Bumps go with the territory, but they're OK (encouraged, even).

Frame the head and give yourself a queenly finish by fastening three supersized hair gems to the back of the head. Place one so it lines up with a middle part and the others on each side. And if you're having trouble tracking down giant hair bling, a statement headband positioned at the very back of the head would provide a similar crown effect.

Stop stressing about getting every hair perfectly in place in a middle part. Likewise, quit agonizing over where to place your barrettes. Once the part is reasonably in the center of the head, clip shimmering barrettes in a cluster on one side of the face. Finish with one random, asymmetrical clip on the opposite side, et voilà.
