Prep your hair
Always start with clean hair whenever you’re creating any hairstyle. If you often braid your hair, you might notice falling strands every time you take off your hair tie or unravel your braid. to reduce hairfall, use Dove Hairfall Rescue Shampoo and Dove Hairfall Rescue Conditioner to help make your hair more resistant to breakage.
Part your hair
Create a center part and clip the front sections of your hair. These will frame your face once your crown braid is done.
Extend the part
Divide the back sections into two vertical sections. The parting doesn’t need to be perfect as long as it’s in the middle.
Start braiding
Put the right section in a Dutch braid. Start on the area above your nape and braid your hair upward. Add more hair to the braid as you go along.
#Tip: Tilt your head forward so that you can create your crown braid more easily.
Keep braiding
Continue making the Dutch braid even as it crosses over to the other side of your head. This is exactly how your crown braid will be formed.
Braid until the tips
Continue braiding your hair until you reach the tips, then secure it with an elastic band.
