Who doesn’t love a good braided style? Dutch braids are a great way to show off your love for braids while making a statement. Begin by taking three sections of hair at the crown of your head like you would for a regular french braid. Instead of crossing the strands over the center section, cross the strands underneath the center section to create a braid that pops. Literally! Repeat this until you’ve reached the end of your hair and secure with a hair tie.

After applying the product, scrunch your hair to create a wavy texture!
