HOW TO FESTIVAL HAIR: AIRY FRENCH BRAID

Festival hair is all about effortless styling, and this relaxed take on the French braid epitomises this cool vibe. Chic, cool and easy to create, this is the perfect updo to add to your look book for the big weekend.

HERE’S HOW TO CREATE AN AIRY FRENCH BRAID:

step one: Curl your hair

step two: Backcomb for volume
With your ghd narrow dressing brush, begin to backcomb your locks at the roots to create that extra volume.

step three: Create texture
Spritz your locks with ghd final fix hairspray and run your fingers through your tresses to create texture in your hair.

Going from one temple to the other, take a section of hair from the top of your hairline, pull it to the back of your head and separate it into three sections approximately two inches each.

step five: Weave a French braid
Take an outside section and place it over the top of the middle. Do the same on the other side and pull in more hair to each outer strand as you continue down your head. Repeat this until you come to the ends of your hair. Don’t worry about stray hairs and keep you braiding loose to achieve the airy, messy effect.
