Side Braid with Voluminous Waves: How to Create this Day-to-Night Look

A good hairstyle always starts with healthy hair. Wash your hair with shampoo that will nourish your hair back to its health. Follow it up with the Cream Silk Damage Control Conditioner to repair and protect your locks from further damage.  

Now that you’re done prepping you rhair, use the tip of your tail comb to part your hair all the way to your nape on any side. Want to make it really edgy? Make your side part deep. This will give you a faux shaved look. Take the bigger section of your hair and clip it. 

Now, create a three-strand braid on the other section of your hair. Start by dividing it into three vertical parts. Cross the left section over the middle, then the right over the new middle. Add more hair as you go along. Once you reach past your nape, stop adding more hair and switch to a regular braid. When done, tie it with an elastic.

You’re halfway through your side braid with voluminous waves!

After creating a braid, curl the other section of your hair. Remove the clip, divide this section into two horizontal layers, and curl one small section at a time using a big barrel curler.

Hide the end of the braid under your curled hair. To do this, just clip your hair first, place the braid above your nape, pin it, then remove the clip.

Add more volume to your ‘do! Tease some sections of hair on your crown and spritz hairspray under these sections to strengthen their hold. Use TRESemmé Salon Finish Extra Hold Hairspray so you won’t have to deal with sticky residue.

All done! Now, you’re ready to party with your friends. You can also wear this hairstyle when going on a fancy dinner date. Add more glam to your whole look by wearing gold statement earrings.
