Prepare the hair by washing with a shampoo and massage it with a quality conditioner. Add some mousse and blow dry your hair.

Create a clean center part and take it all the way through the back. Use your fingers to add some texture to the hair.

Start creating a normal braid with each section and secure with an elastic band.

Take the braids over each side of your head. If you have very long braids, you can cross them over before you put them up.

Prepare your hair using a shampoo with suits your hair type.

Blow dry your hair in all directions. With your fingers, run mousse from the middle to ends of the hair to lock to add the texture to the hair.

Depending on what looks best with your face, create a center part or deep side parting and begin braiding a basic loose braid, roughly starting around the eyeline.

Once done, tie a clear elastic at the end and start gently pulling at the sides of the braid with a tail comb. This will make the look more undone and messy as well as make your braid appear thicker, helping those with thin hair.

Apply a light misting of hairspray to keep it in place and looking perfectly messy all day long.
