4. Half-Up Goddess Knot
Combining the structured beauty of goddess braids with the casual vibe of a top knot, the half-up goddess knot is incredibly chic. The bottom half of your hair is styled into neat, medium-sized goddess braids, while the top section is gathered into a high, full bun. This is the perfect style for those who want a practical everyday look that still feels elevated. The “goddess” element comes from the intentional parting and the slight looseness in the braids that gives them a soft, textured appearance.
How to Make
Divide your hair into two sections: top and bottom. Style the bottom section into straight-back goddess braids. For the top section, gather the hair into a high ponytail and wrap it into a tight, secure bun. Leave a few loose, curly tendrils out at the front to frame the face. Wrap a gold cord or leather strip around the base of the bun to add a touch of personality. Apply a little bit of sheen spray to the length of the braids to ensure they look fresh and well-moisturized throughout the day.
