A few weeks ago I tried out a new braided up-do and I shared it on instagram with some great feedback. Today I'm here with the full tutorial for you to try it at home!
You'll need: 3 small elastic bands, lots of bobby pins
Step 1: Divide your hair into 3 sections
Step 2: Braid each section loosely and tie with an elastic.
Step 3: For both of the side pieces, I like to french braid them so that it looks like a continuous braid all the way down the side.
Step 4: Twist the middle section around itself and pin in place.
Step 5: Place the left braid under the middle twist and pin into place.
We will cover the elastic with the next step!
Step 6: Twist the right braid around on the top of the middle coil and pin into place.
Step 7: Tuck and pin loose pieces in place.
Finish with my favorite hairspray of all time and you're good to go! {this is not sponsored, I genuinely LOVE this product and want you all to try it! :)}
I think this can go casual, fancy, and always looks sophisticated. What do you think?!
Happy Wednesday!

Adorable! I never have anything creative to do with my hair other than a ponytail so maybe I can venture out with this!

You know I’ve been seeing a lot of your tutorials on Pinterest and what I really like about them, aside from the tutorials themselves are the backdrop. Haha! ^.^ And this one is definitely one of them. I also love braided updo hairstyles. ;) Lizzie
