How to Braid Short Hair: S-Braided Bangs
This hairstyle is going to jazz up your short hair, even when you’re just staying at home. It’s simple and sweet. It’s also a practical hairstyle when you’re bangs are starting to grow and you want to keep your fringe from poking your eyes.
Prep your hair
Now that it’s summer, it’s important to pay close attention to your scalp, as the heat and humidity may cause dandruff. We recommend washing your hair with products that help beat these white flakes like CLEAR Complete Soft Care Anti-Dandruff Shampoo and Cream Silk Dandruff-Free Hair Reborn Conditioner.
Divide a small section of hair
Gather some strands of hair near your hairline. Then, divide this section into three smaller parts.
Create a Dutch Braid
Cross the left section under the middle section, then, the right section under the new middle section. Secure with a clear elastic.
Lift the braid slightly
Insert the end of a tail comb to the braid and pull it up gently. This will make your braid look even fuller, especially if you have thin hair.
#Tip: Hide the elastic by tucking the end of the braid underneath the rest of your hair.
Pin it
Secure the braid with a bobby pin. For a more polished look, insert the bobby pin in an area where it can’t be seen.
Spray
To smooth out your braid and make it last longer, spritz TRESemmé Salon Finish Extra Hold Hairspray on your hair.
Done!
Your simple braided short hair is complete! Do you love it? Because we do. We’re sure it looks good on you.
