HOW-TO STEPS

• 

  
  1

  Prep the hair with SignatureBlonde Violet Shampoo, Violet Condition and Restorative Filler. Then apply TruCurl Anti-Frizz Oil through the midlengths and ends, and layer CurlyLocks Color Protect Curl Mousse over the top.

• 

  
  2

  Blow-dry the hair, taking large sections and twisting them into your hand to create a naturally wavy texture. Detail curls with a medium- or large-barrel curling iron if necessary.

• 

  
  3

  Create a halo section around the crown.

• 

  
  4

  Create four ponytails across the back of the section.

• 

  
  5

  Fishtail braid each ponytail, expanding for fullness using PowderFix Texturizing Powder.

• 

  
  6

  Once all ponytails are braided, bring each braid up and pin to the head against the halo parting, creating a braided crown.

  Finish with TextureCharge Color Protect Texture + Finishing Spray and UltraMarathon Strong Hold Color Protect Hairspray.
