Let Your Hair Down Sunday


Pair up your breezy Sunday with this effortless chic braid

  • Start this like a regular braid, but drop the top piece through to the bottom and leave it there.
  • Gently twist the 2 pieces you’re left with upward.
  • Add a new 3rd piece in between + drop it through.
  • Twist again and repeat. Keep going until you get to the back. Tie it with a clear elastic, tuck the end under, and secure with a bobby pin.
  • Remember there are only 2 main steps to this braid: twist + add a new piece. Imagine you’re just making a twist with only two pieces, but each time you do, you feed a new piece of hair through before you make the next twist. So you never actually keep the new piece. It’s really easy once you get it going. Try it on a friend first so you can see what you’re doing and how the pattern develops. Then try it on yourself!


  • Get more creative and you can style it like this....


    And don't forget to accessories with earrings like THESE GOODIES to complete your look.



    Go ahead and have little fun with braids this Sunday
