Read on to learn how to make a waterfall braid.
Follow these steps to create a waterfall braid
Start strong
Wash your hair with Sunsilk Strong & Long Shampoo and Sunsilk Strong & Long Conditioner. These products nourish hair to make it soft and manageable while also strengthening each strand.

Preheat your curling iron
Let your hair dry on its own. While waiting, preheat your curling iron for 10 minutes before using. This will help curl your hair more quickly later on.

Protect hair
Spritz TONI&GUY Heat Protection Mist on your hair to guard it against heat damage. This step is a must whenever you need to blow dry, iron, or curl your hair.

Start curling
Take a section of hair that is 5 to 6 cm wide and wrap it around your curling iron. Roll the curler away from your face as you wrap your hair around it. Hold it for three seconds, then release your hair from the curling iron. Repeat until all sections of your hair have been curled.

Part at the side
Get a tail comb and use it to part your hair at the side. Be careful not to flatten out your curls.

Divide
Take a small section from the side where you parted your hair. Divide this section into three equal parts.

Start weaving
Raise the small section of your hair a little and start braiding towards the back of your head. Cross the top section over the middle section, then the bottom section over the new middle section. The former middle section should now hang at the bottom of your braid.
As you go along your braid, get a new top section from the rest of your hair. Cross this over the middle section, and then cross the bottom section of the middle. Then again, get a new top section and repeat the process. Braid until you reach the other side of your head.

Continue braiding
Once you reach the other side of your head, continue with a three-strand braid at the side of your face. Secure with an elastic.

Look pretty
Waterfall braid suits long and medium-length hair. It’s a simple ‘do that you can wear on occasions where you need to dress up a little, like a daytime wedding or lunch date. This hairstyle goes well with a knee-length dress to create a dainty and feminine look. Meanwhile, rock a boho look with this hairstyle by wearing a maxi-dress and flat sandals.
