Tutorial: The False Braid

AUTHOR - DATE - 21/Jan/2014 / CATEGORY - 0 Comments

Early morning starts for work, school, college, or running children around means there’s often very little time for hair and makeup. This tutorial shows you how to do a false braid in minutes. It’s especially great for anyone who finds a fishtail braid a little difficult, as it gives a VERY similar look but takes just a few simple twists.

You only need a couple of products too – a brush (we prefer a Tangle Teezer to get out any knots) and a hair bobble.

If you have a little more time, and feel that your hair is perhaps too short or fine, then we also tried the look using I&K Quick length hair extensions to give a longer, thicker, braid. We used 2 pieces (which are 12″ wide, and 18″ long) and they take seconds to clip into place.
