Ah, waterfall braids. Whether you're frequenting a music festival this summer—Coachella is just the tip of the iceberg—or emulating Khaleesi's rippled
mane, there's something regal about letting your locks flow with
abandon from a crown of woven braids. If you're looking for ways to
make the most of day-old hair texture or a messy bedhead, this
hairstyle's an easy upgrade on a simple French braid. Plus, it swoops
pesky fly-aways out of the eye-line. Follow this easy guide to achieve
the breezy summer look.
Step 1.
Part the hair either in the middle or off to one side.
Step 2.
Start out threading three strands of hair the way you would with any other braid.
As you're braiding, leave the bottom strand to hang loose and pick up a
new piece of hair each time to continue pulling into the braid.
Step 3, 4, and 5.
Repeat
the same pattern on the opposite side and weave the two braided sides
together in the back to complete the look. To create extra texture,
spray hair with sea salt spray for beachy, flowing waves or loosely curl
strands with a curling iron.
