    Part the hair according to natural fall, then begin a diagonal, three-strand S-braid starting at the top of the head. Continue adding hair to the braid while working down and around the curve of the head, leaving 2 inches of hair out along the perimeter of the face. If needed, use the CHI Enviro 54 Hairspray Natural Hold to smooth down flyaways.

    Loosen your grip as the braid curves toward the opposite ear, slightly below the occipital bone. This creates the curved S shape. When starting the second curve on the opposite side of the head, leave 2 inches of hair out from the temple and along the perimeter.
