Floral Fishtail Braid
HOW-TO:
Begin on dry naturally textured hair. Gather the hair into a low, loose ponytail leaving out some hair that’s framing the face. Fishtail braid the entire pony. Start with two equal sections of hair. Take a small piece from the outside of one section and cross it over to the other side, adding it to that section. Repeat this process, alternating sides, until the end of the hair is reached, then secure with a Kitsch No Snag Small Elastic Hair Tie. Spray hair at the crown with R+CO BLEU Ultry Dry Texture Spray & lightly pull to loosen hair at the crown. Once hair at crown is loosened lightly spray the braid & pull pieces/loosen the braid for added texture. Create desired shape using U-shaped pins to secure style. To finish curl or bend pieces of hair framing the face with a small BaBylissPRO Nano Titanium Mini Flat Iron Hair Straightener, 0.5" & lightly spray again with texture spray. Once braid is complete using Jumbo Bob Pins secure desired flowers in place by pinning directly to braid to complete the style. These flowers were purchased at the Los Angeles Flower District.
