HOW-TO STEPS

• 

  
  1

   Begin by sectioning the hair in a circle and apply the Invisible Extension by Hairdo® to add length and volume.

• 

  
  2

  Pull the hair through the band and comb.

• 

  
  3

  Then, shifting the extension from underneath, move it to the right to start building your base for the style. 

• 

  
  4

  Section the hair over the band and backcomb. 

• 

  
  5

  Create a balanced, voluminous bump, then create a twist and bobby pin to secure. 

• 

  
  6

  Pull the rest of the hair back in sections, twisting to the right. Then slowly pull out the twists for a soft, whimsical look and secure with a bobby pin.

• 

  
  7

  Taking the bottom section of the hair, create a single braid and pancake it out slowly to maintain the whimsical look. Secure with a bobby pin.

• 

  
  8

  Curl any loose or left-out pieces. 

  TIP: Remember when styling Hairdo’s Invisible Extension to let it cool in your hand before releasing the curl.

• 

  
  9

  For the final step, create a Dutch braid starting in the front and on the right side of the head. (The Dutch braid technique is a reverse French or 3-strand braid.)

• 

  
  10

  Begin to pull out the braid as you work down the head to maintain the soft, whimsical look.

• 

  
  11

  Continue through the remainder of the hair, then secure the braid. 

• 

  
  12

  Loop any remaining pieces around your thumb and into the upstyle, then secure with a bobby pin.
