How-To: Twist & Twirl Braid

by Alexandra Wilson

Step 1:
If desired, add clip-in extensions for fullness and/or color. For better hold, use Puff.ME for teasing section then add clip-ins.


Step 2:
Curl the whole head with 1 1/4 “ barrel.


Step 3:
Secure crown area with an elastic, leaving hair in front of ears out. Spray Puff.ME, pinch and pull for added volume and texture.


Step 4:
Take 2” sections from each side of the head twisting them back and pin to opposite side.


Step 5:
Spray Puff.ME to twisted sections, pinch and pull the twists to create more volume.


Step 6 & 7:
After 6 twists, leave some pieces out to create a soft/romantic feel and secure the next 2” of hair into an elastic. Flip ponytail under or use the Design.ME topsy tail to create the perfect tail.


Step 8:
Spray Puff.ME then pinch and pull the topsy tail, creating more volume. Repeat steps 7 & 8 creating 1 more topsy tail to finish the look.


Step 9:
Touch up pieces you left out around hair line with 1 1/4 “ barrel.


Step 10:
Spray Hold.ME on the highest setting to lock in the look.
