HOW TO GET TAYLOR SWIFT'S HAIR IN 'LOVE STORY' MUSIC VIDEO.



Hey ya'll! A lot of people have been wanting to know how to get Taylor Swift's gorgeous hair as she had it done in her "Love Story" music video.  I've posted a video on the tutorial which I found on YouTube, but I also found some instructions, check them out below:
Again this is a really high-mainantance, difficult hairstyle that is probably best reserved for prom and special occasions since it will take a long LONG time to do. I played around with this and the best way of doing it perfectly is very fiddly. You should really take care not to get burned as you do this. 
1. Wash your hair and dry it so it is soft and easy to manage. Some may find this will work best with day old hair, but I think it may vary between people. 
2. Seperate the first two inchs back from your forhead from the rest of your hair, as as you can see from the picture, thisis not curled and is best pinned out of the way. 
3. Look at the back of Taylor hair if you are unsure about this part. Take one inch sections of your hair and clamp your curling icon onto the end and roll upwards vertically as you would usually do when curling, but when the tong is right next to your scalp, clip the rolled up curl to your head. Be careful you don't touch the iron as you clip the curl up. Again, if you don't understand what I mean look at the back of Taylor's hair. Repeat this all over so the back of your hair is completely in curls pined to your head. 
4. For the front section of your hair, put a side part in then curl it a little at the sides and pin into the rest of your hair, like Taylor's is in the bottom-right hand picture. Then place a thin gold band between the fringe part of the curls and the pinned curls. 
5. Pull out a few wisps (carefully!) and curl these to frame your face. 
6. To give it extra holding power, give your hair a good coat of hairspray to make sure it stays in place and doesn't frizz. 
And you are done!
 Wa la! If anyone has the guts to re-create this look -- please send pictures into glamourgirl@glamourgirltips.com, I love looking at them!!
