How to make:

Step 1: To make a messy and textured half up half down hairstyle, start by styling your hair in loose curls or beachy waves.

Step 2: Spray a generous amount of texturising spray all over your hair to keep the curls/waves in place.

Step 3: Next, collect half of your hair from the crown area and tie it in a ponytail.

Step 4:  Secure the ponytail in place with the help of a rubber band, but avoid pulling the pony through the final loop.

Step 5: Now, loosen the ponytail and remove a few strands or do whatever you like to basically make it messy.

And damn, here you've got yourself a textured half-up topknot!
