Hair tutorial: The triple twist
Create a half-up ponytail.
To start off with, remove any dirt, oil and residue from your hair, by washing it with TRESemmé Perfectly (un)Done Weightless Shampoo and Conditioner.
Once your mane is clean and dry, create a middle parting. Then take the top section of your hair (approximately 3 inches in width all the way around) and secure it into a loose half-up, half-down ponytail. The ponytail should start in the middle section at the back of your crown.
Create a gap.
Next create a gap above the middle of your half-up ponytail, by using your fingers to gently separate the hair.
Create the first twist.
Now flip the tail of your pony onto itself and loop it into the gap that you created in step 2. Once you done that, pull it all the way through to form a topsy turvy twist!
Create another half-up ponytail.
Then you need to section another layer of hair: this time it needs to be 2 sections from underneath your first section. Gather these sections into another loose half-up, half-down ponytail, ensuring it sits directly below the first twist.
Create the second twist.
As before, make a gap above the ponytail using your fingers, before flipping the tail and looping it into the hole, to form your second topsy turvy twist.
Create your last half-up ponytail.
Now section the third – and last – layer of hair, which needs to be the 2 sections from underneath your second twist. Gather them into another loose half-up ponytail and loop the tail through to form the last twist.
Final look.
And there you have it: an intricate-looking ‘do that takes just minutes to achieve!
Top tip: Spritz some TIGI Bed Head Headrush Shine Hairspray over the final look, to add a layer of lusicious sheen. This product will really help to add depth to any highlights too, which will give this hairstyle even more dimension!
