The dress may have been the focal point of Diane’s look upon entrance, but it wasn’t the only highlight because when she exited we were treated with a look at her seriously cool braid-on-braid low ponytail hairstyle that was created by Kylee Heath.
Who doesn’t like to beat the summer heat with an oh-so-chic braid? In fact, this double-braid is so cool, it’s perfect for every season. Get details below on how you can recreate the look–straight from the source!
How She Did It:
“First, I sprayed Leonor Greyl Spray Structure Naturelle from roots through ends and rough dried the hair, blowing it in all directions. Then, I created a part from the top of left ear, straight over the head, to the top of the right ear. I broke the section into two, creating a center part and clipped away both sections. Starting at the back of the center part, I then created two partings creating a triangle section in the back.
The left over hair on either side of the triangle was also then clipped away leaving only the triangle section unclipped. I did an inside out French braid (cornrow) on the triangle section and secured at the base of the neck with a clear rubber band.
Next, I took down the clipped away sections. I gave the roots a light tease for volume, lightly pulled them back and created a loose French braid (over the top of the triangle sectioned cornrow).
Braiding the hair until only about 2 1/2 in was left, I secured with a clear rubber band and lightly loosened up the braid.
I finished the look with Kevin Murphy Session.Spray Strong Hold Hairspray and Easy.Rider Anti-Frizz Cream.”
