101 Half Up Half Down Hairstyles for Women (Photos)

This half up, half down hairdo combines soft waves for the pinned top half of the hair with softly bunched curls on the bottom half for an intricate but beautiful hairdo. There is slight backcombing at the top to give some lift and volume to the hair and hold the waves in place. This is best done on longer hair so there is more space to play with it.

Known for her iconic role in Sex and the City as fashionista Carrie Bradshaw, Sarah Jessica Parker gives us major goals with this elegant, wavy half up, half down hairdo. She curls her bangs for some added texture at the front of the face while the rest of the hair is swept back with gentle backcombing, leaving the remaining hair to flow down gently.

Half up half down hairstyle simply refers to any type of hairstyle that is lifted from just above the ears or at the temples and pulled back from the face. This section of hair can be put in a ponytail, braided, twisted, or clipped in a variety of different ways. The lower half of the hair is then left loose and down. This type of style is often thought ideal because it offers the best of both worlds; beautiful long hair is shown at its best in the lower half, while the upper portion is kept out of the face and can be styled to suit any occasion.

Half up half down hairstyles have been around for hundreds of years, seen as far back as the Renaissance Era, though this style didn’t become popular in America until the 40’s when Victory Rolls gained traction. We can probably thank this particular hairstyle for laying the groundwork for the half up half down styles we love so much today.

This style is currently trending and breaks all the rules. It’s a new take on the French braid. Starting with an extreme side part (use the outer edge of your eyebrow as a guide), make two sections of hair. The heavier section will be left loose, while the small one makes the braid. It’s certainly not the traditional way to do half up half down but is still along the same lines.

Elegant and classy, this style is a modern salute to the beehives of the 60’s. It can go as formal or casual as you like. To get this look, pull the top half of your hair up, do a bit of backcombing (or teasing) on the underside near the roots, and tie or pin in place. The ends hanging down can be curled, braided, or twisted however you want. Pro tip: to help reach higher levels of volume, apply a little hairspray or mousse before backcombing.

This one can be done a couple of different ways. In one style, the sides of the top half of hair are braided until they reach the back of the head and then held in place. These can be simple, quick braids or French braided, whatever suits your preference or ability. The second way is to pull the upper section back and then begin the braid at the crown of your head.

“May your love continue to grow each and every day Brittany”! Happy wedding day to you and Freddy! #orangcountyhairstylist#hairandmakeupbyvanessa#hairbyvanessa#orangecountybridals#orangecountybridalexpert#sandiegoweddinghairstylist#ocbridalhair#ocupdos#hairaccessories#hairandmakeupteaminoc#romanticupdos#braidupdo#halfuphalfdownweddinghair#fishtailupdos#fishtailhalfuphalfdown#bridalhair#beachwavehair#beachwavebridalhair#beachwavebraids

This style takes the mid-section of the top half of your hair and clips it in the top-center of your head. This part of the hair can be left flat, backcombed for a boost, twisted in small sections, or braided as far as the clip. It’s especially gorgeous when the loose ends and lower half are curled.

Another way to get the half up half down look is to pull back only the sides of the hair, leaving the top middle loose. Take wide sections that start at the top of your ear and extend to the spot directly above the outer corner of your eyebrow, pull each side back and secure it with a bobby pin or clip. The sections shouldn’t touch at the back of the head and should leave a wide section of hair loose down the middle.

So in love with the way Brittni’s homemade half flower crown tucked right into the braided crown I created for her yesterday 💕 #bohobride #bohemianbride #yogibride #braidedcrown #halfupbraidedcrown #halfuphalfdown #halfupdo #halfuphalfdownhairstyle #halfup #halfuphair #halfupbraid #noboringfam #beyondtheponytail #behindthechair #braidedlife #braidlife #bridalhair #bridalhairstyle #bridalhairandmakeup #bridalhairideas #bridalhairinspiration #baltimorehairstylist #baltimorebridalhair #baltimorewedding #baltimorebride #hellobarcase

This style works best with hair that falls below the shoulders, as it requires length to achieve. The upper section of hair is woven into one thick or several thinner French style braids across the back of the head. The braided “crown” can sit high or low and gives a very romantic, renaissance look.

This term refers to any half up half down style that is highly detailed. It can mean any style where opposite sides of the hair are braided or weaved loosely together (resulting in a unique “net” look across the back of the style), several braids of the same or different style woven throughout the style, or even techniques that turn the hair itself into different shapes such as flowers.

Which face shapes are best suited to half up half down hairstyles? Luckily, all of them. The trick is to learn what your shape is and then find out how to accentuate or soften it using hair cut and style. With half up half down styles, this can be done in a few different ways. You can add bangs or pull them back, part the hair a certain way, or simply strategically add or decrease volume.
