Tips to create a hair template ✨
1. Go on Canva and choose a background of your choice.
2. Choose a picture template that you find appealing. In this case I chose Polaroids because I could right the months on them.
3. Find a text box that will not take away from the background. I searched up transparent text boxes in the design search box.
4. Play around with fonts and choose a text color that does not clash with your background color. Black in the case worked best.
4. Use the search engine of your choice. I used Pinterest to find the styles I wanted.
5. Have a plan and estimate of how you will achieve those looks and how much they will be(Be realistic ✨).
6. Have fun! Do not get overwhelmed. Take breaks and ask for advice if you feel like you are getting stuck.

Okay, so you've got the basics of creating your hair template down, but let's dive deeper into making it truly pop and serve you all year long! I've been using my '20 HAIR 25 TEMPLATE' for a while now, and it's been a game-changer for keeping my hair journey organized and exciting. First off, let's talk about what to actually put in those monthly slots. Don't just pick random pictures! Think about the seasons, your events, and your hair health. For example, my template for January often features protective styles like curly braids, while February might lean into an elegant braided updo for a special occasion. As the weather warms up, I might plan for a Boho Braided Bob in April or an Afro Twist in May, perhaps even trying some bold bangs. The images really helped me visualize these! I love dedicating sections to 'INSPO' where I can dump all my dream looks, from long goddess braids to short goddess braids and those intricate braided updos with curly tendrils. Now, about those "luxe locks" searches – while I create my template, I often look at high-end salons or popular stylists for inspiration. They usually showcase incredible styles that can spark ideas for your own template. Think about the textures, colors, and cuts they feature. Even if you're not going to a specific salon, seeing professional results can guide your vision. When you're adding these looks, remember to include a section for 'associated costs'. This is crucial! I always do a bit of research on what similar styles might cost at my local salon or with my preferred stylist. This helps me budget and avoid any surprises. Another great tip is to think about your hair's growth and health. If you're planning on a style like long dark hair with bangs for a few months, consider the maintenance. My template includes notes on products I'll need or specific care routines. For protective styles, I add reminders for scalp treatments. Don't forget the 'CapCut hairstyle template' idea! While you're creating a visual template on Canva, you can also use video editing tools like CapCut to visualize how certain styles might look on you. It’s like a virtual try-on and can really help solidify your choices before you commit. Finally, make your template a living document. It's not set in stone! I constantly update mine. If a style doesn't work out or I find new inspiration, I swap it out. It's about having a flexible plan that excites you. Having this visual roadmap has not only helped me achieve some amazing hair looks but also saved me so much time and stress. Give it a try, and watch your hair journey transform!
