Rock Chick Ponytail with Braids

Ready to embrace your inner rocker this festival season? We’re here to help you ‘Get Your You On,’ by creating the ultimate Rock Chick Ponytail with Braids. This statement style won’t just give everyone hair envy, but it’ll keeps your hair off your face too, which is super practical for when you’re throwing shapes to your favourite band.

Step 1

Start by parting your hair in the middle. Then, using your Advanced Colour Protect Straighteners, create waves using the Flat Wave technique.

What’s the Flat Wave technique?

Place your straighteners in a parallel position around a section of hair, clamp down, and twist your wrist back and forth all the way down your hair to create a wide crimp wave.

 


Step 2

Take a section of hair at the top of your head and secure with a small bobble. Then, wrap a section of hair around the bobble and secure with a hair grip.

 


Step 3

Take a small C-section of hair, starting from the back of the section you took in Step 2, down to the back of the ear. French braid this section of hair and secure with a small bobble.

 


Step 4

Repeat this step on the other side of the head, and secure again with a small bobble behind the ear.

 


Step 5

Next, braid the top section of hair and secure with a bobble. Once complete, loosen the top braid to create a chunkier, relaxed-looking plait.

 


Step 6

Gather the rest of your hair into a ponytail and tie in a bobble. Finally, take a piece of hair from the ponytail, and wrap it around the bobble to finish your look.
