Your New Favorite Braid (and how to do it!)

This crown braid is one of my favorite techniques to utilize and now it can be yours too! Perfect for festival season and great for the summer months where you want to wear your hair down but out of your face.

 

STEP 1

Rough dry hair to 90% using the PROi with the wide concentrator, then finish drying to 100% using your preferred Anti-Gravity Barrel Brush to smooth hair out.

STEP 2

Starting at the hairline, create a French braid on one side of your head using sections only from the top of your head. Work your way from the front to the back of your head, then finish with a basic braid. Tie the ends with an elastic.

STEP 3

Repeat step 2 on the other side.

STEP 4

Detail your hair with the T3 Micro Undone Waves Straight Barrel by curling random ½” sections around the head.
