Products Used:
- 1-inch Curling Iron
- Flexible Hold Aiir Spray
- Texture Aiir
- Amethyst Hair + Energy Refresher
Step-by-Step:
- Curl sections of hair using a 1-inch curling iron and finish with Flexible Hold Aiir Spray. *Pro-tip: If your hair is resistant to curling use Texture Mousse to help create hold and volume.
- Section out a triangle area on top of the head of the desired part. Create a side fishtail braid technique by pulling the hair in front of your shoulder and take one section of hair from one side and pull it over the other side. Repeat this technique until you get to the ends and secure with a hair elastic
- Spray Texture AIIR on your braid and gently pull your sections out. Texture AIIR will give hair hold when you pull it out providing instant volume.
- Release the top triangle section. To glam it up a bit, take small horizontal sections and twist away from the face. Spray Texture AIIR to add fullness to the twisted sections. Then bobby pin the sections straight into the braid.
