Side Fishtail Braid Cristiana Capotondi 2014 La Rancon De La Gloire Premiere
- First, part your hair the way you are comfortable with. Pick up a small section from the top front portion and then, twist it halfway to frame your face. Secure it bobby pins.
- Next pull your hair to the side where the twisted section falls and tie a loose low ponytail. Use medium hold hair spray and bobby pins to hold the hair.
- (This look is perfect for those with wavy hair but works even for straight hair.)
- Pick a small section of hair from your low ponytail and start making loose braids all the way to the ends and secure it with small elastic. Then remove your ponytail.
- Remove small strands of hair from your braid and pull it sideways to create a messy look. Flip your hair and back comb a bit to create an even messy look. Use a curling iron on tiny stray strands of hair to create beachy waves – the messier, the better. You can add your own quirky cute accessories to this hairstyle. So go on, get creative and create your own super glam side braid style.
