If you’re looking for an insanely easy updo for a wedding (or any other day you want to look a little fancy), this hair tutorial is for you! It takes 10 minutes to recreate (if that), but it looks way more complicated than it really is. Pinkie promise, even a beginner can tackle this one!
Instructions
1. Start with curly or texturized hair (you can either curl your hair with a curling iron, let it air dry into soft waves, or use a texturizing product with clean hair), and section into three parts.
2. Pull each section into a low ponytail and wrap with an elastic hair tie. I like the tiny clear rubber bands for this tutorial because they won’t add extra bulk.
3. Next, braid each ponytail as normal and add another elastic to the end of each braid. Once braided, use your fingers to loosen the braid / make it more messy, by pulling on the braid in different areas. You can also backcomb sections of each braid if it isn’t looking very full.
4. Next, start twisting the braids up and over the initial elastics you added in step 2 to create the ponytails. And start pinning with bobby pins to hold in place.
5. Do that with all three braids, then pull any areas that still need to be filled in and add more bobby pins if needed. Spray with a strong hold hair spray if desired. And you’re good to go.
