How to: Alexander Wang Inspired Braid


A while ago, (back in 2009) In Designer Alexander Wang's Yearly Runway Fashion Shows,
i came across this look! I was excited to re-create this look, i ran to my dresser, sat down in front of the mirror, and messed around until i re-created it! after i had created it i was glued to this Hairstyle, i wore it everywhere i went,i never got sick of it! it went with everything i wore! and since Summer is Just around the corner, i decided that i would share this look with you!

What you will need
  • Texture Spray
  • Curling Iron
  • Hair Brush
  • Hair Elastic
Let's Begin!

Step 1: Brush your hair to smooth out any flyaways or tangles
          Spray Texture Spray from root to tip, to create volume.
           
Step 2: Flip all your hair from the left side to the right,
            brush your hair all on to the right side.

Step 3: For now, we will leave the fringe.
           Braid your hair invertedly (the reverse braid)
          
Step 4: To create the inverted braid, divide the hair into three strands,
 put the left strand under the middle strand, then put the right strand under the middle strand. continue doing so until finished, then use your hair elastic to tie the end of the braid.. The Reverse Braid is basically a normal braid, but inverted (reversed).

Step 5: After you have braided the hair, gently tug it apart from the sides to create thickness.
      
Step 6: Now that you are done with the braiding, steps you then move on to the fringe,
        brush the fringe through to tame any tangles and flyaways, the use your curling iron and pick up any
       random pieces and curl them.

There You Have It! a beautiful, voluminous Braid.
I really Hope you enjoyed it and i hope you give it a go!

Tips:

  • to create more of a messy look,after you have finished pull out random strands from the side to make it look more messy.
  • Put this Look together with neutral brown eye makeup and flawless skin for summery look!
