How-To
1. To start, prep the hair with amika Perk Up Dry Shampoo and Un.Done Texture Spray to give it some texture and grip. Then, divide one side in two from the top of the head to the bottom with the front section being a little smaller.
2. Then, add vibrant braiding hair to the front section for length, density and a non-committal pop of color and create a French braid along the hairline.
3. Next, add braiding hair to the back section and create a second French braid. Repeat on the other side of the head for a total of three braids.
4. To give the style some edge, insert large safety pins between the two braids from the top of the style to right before the ear. Then, add glitter on the blonde strands for some festival-approved sparkle.
