Editor’s tip: Your crown braid hairstyles will always look selfie-ready if you use the TONI&GUY Flexible Hold Braid Balm to create them.
Suitable to use on both wet and dry strands, this balm gives flexible hold and provides your plait with added structure.
3. Crown twisted updo
Struggle with braiding? You can still create this lovely braided crown hairstyle by dividing your hair into two sections and twisting them. It’s easier than braiding but still looks great. Credit: @megankeeverhair
4. Messy crown hair
Major #hairgoals right here, especially if you’re after a style that’ll allow you to channel off-duty vibes.
To get the look spot on, you’ll need to pancake your braid to create the illusion of a thicker plait. So, gently pull apart each section of your plait to make it looser and messy, and watch as your hair instantly becomes Pinterest-worthy. Credit: @brittsully
5. Crown braid on natural hair
Another reason we adore crown braid hairstyles? They’re protective and can help keep your mane looking on-point 24-7, making them an ideal style for ladies with natural hair.
Now, there’s no need to wait: you can recreate a similar, stunning crown hair look with our easy tutorial.
