Get the Look: Sideswept Dutch Braid
Things you need:
- ¼” Curling Iron
- Brush
- Bobbi pins
Tips on how to get the look
- After making a deep side part, when you continue the part down the back of your head, check to make sure the part is off-center and in line with your part on the top of the head
- When securing your braid, criss cross two bobbi pins at the end of the braid to help stabilize the braid
- After creating the braid and applying hairspray, gently brush the crown and right section of hair to smooth fly aways
Step-by-step instructions:
#1 Curl hair in large sections
#2 Create deep side part and continue part down the back of head
#3 Clip right side section of hair out of the way
#4 On left side, grab a small, triangular section of hair
#5 Split into 3 smaller sections
#6 Create a Dutch braid and continually pull in small sections until the Dutch braid meets the nape of your neck
#7 After passing the nape, finish with a standard braid and secure the end with two bobbi pins
#8 Unclip hair on right side then use hairspray to smooth hair on both sides
#9 Sweep hair over right shoulder and wrap braid around right side of head, pinning at the crown with bobbi pins
