STEP-BY-STEP
-
Prep hair with Texture SexyHair Clean Wave Shampoo and Conditioner for natural texture and body. Blow dry the hair with Texture SexyHair Foam Party for a bouncy blow out.
-
Spray Texture SexyHair Sunny Vibes all over, then curl the hair towards the center back for loose waves.
-
Starting on the right side, approximately two inches back from the front hairline at the top, create a 5-strand Dutch Lace Braid. Working towards the center back, add hair only to the right side strands. As you near the center back corner, do not add any more hair and continue the braid to the ends.
-
Expand and pancake both left and right sides of the braid using Big SexyHair Powder Play for fullness and dimension. Repeat this braid on the opposite side.
-
Using Texture Sexy Hair Sunny Vibes for maximum shine, texture and lightweight hold, twist the top left crown area towards the center and pin into place. Repeat the movements in the crown area until all of the hair has been pinned into the center back.
-
Next, take the entire back section and twist towards the head shape. Begin pinning into place, molding and expanding the hair with desired detail.
-
Pin the right-side braid into the center back twist. Repeat movements on the opposite side.
-
Detail the back of the style by twisting sections of hair into place and pinning at the base. Leave ends out for a boho style.
-
Pin front hairline sections back into the style while still leaving small sections out in the front.
-
Finish with a 1”-curling iron to detail curls into place using Texture SexyHair Sunny Vibes.
