The Braided Band

As you braid,add a small amount of hair (10 strands) to the rest of your hair. This will anchor the braid to the head.

How to Get the Look:

Step 1: Start from the bottom and work your way up, curling 2" sections with a 1" iron. Different-sized curls help make the ponytail feel a bit more romantic.

Step 2: Create a part and separate your hair into two equal sections. Twist each of them inward until they meet in the middle of the back of your head.

Step 3: Secure the twists with pins and an elastic band. The hair can fall over your ears or behind them. it just depends on what feels more comfortable.

Step 4: Take a small piece of hair from the bottom of each side of the ponytail and wrap them around the band. tuck it under the ponytail and pin.
