Today I'm going to show you how to transform yourself into a mermaid! I will show though how to create this incredible Mermaid Braid that will get heads turning and compliments showering you - guaranteed!
I've added my Ombre Chestnut Luxy Hair extensions for thickness and length, as well as beautiful highlights that the extensions add to my hair. Watch the video to see how I create this very intricate, yet beautiful hairstyle.
For this hairstyle all you will need are: a few elastic bands, a curling wand, and a few bobby pins.
Step 1
Separate a section at the crown of your head, and secure it with an elastic band
Step 2
Gently pull on small sections to add volume to the crown of your head
Step 3
Create a three strand braid all the way down this section, and secure it with an elastic band.
Step 4
Curl a small section of hair framing your face.
Step 5
Twist the curl, and loop through the base of the braid.
Step 6
Curl another section of hair below the top section, twist the curl towards the braid, and now loop this curl through the middle of the braid.
Step 7 to 9
Repeat step four to six, making your way down to the bottom of the braid
Step 10
Secure the braid together with a hair elastic.
Complete the hairstyle by bobby pinning any hairs that need to be pinned down.
