00:00Hi, I'm Rachel. Who's feeling romantic?
00:09Today we're going to learn how to do a really sweet braided look that the pros at Herbal Essences dreamed
00:14up.
00:15So I'm going to start with towel-dried hair and I'm going to apply Herbal Essences Totally Twisted Curl Boosting
00:21Mousse.
00:21This mousse will raise the roots so that the hairstyle doesn't fall flat.
00:29Next, apply the Sleeker the Butter hair milk all the way through to your ends.
00:33This tames flyaways and protects against humidity so that the curls will be sleek and not frizzy.
00:39Now it's time to dry. A diffuser is absolutely essential for this because it'll build volume and texture.
00:46Then create a side part. It doesn't matter which side, but this will be for your braid. We'll get to
00:50that later.
00:50To create the curls, use a ¾ inch curling iron. Start curling from the top of your head and work
00:56your way down.
00:57Now this is important. Twist each section of hair around the curling iron in the same direction.
01:02That way the curls stay consistent. Also, make sure that you curl your bangs away from your face.
01:09So now I'm going to use my hands to break up the curls a little bit.
01:13You're going to do a French braid at the part, but you're going to leave out a little bit over
01:17an inch at the hairline.
01:18Be sure that each new section you add is equal, otherwise the braid's going to look lopsided.
01:23We're going to secure the braid by lifting up some of the hair at the crown and then criss-crossing
01:28bobby pins underneath.
01:30To make sure this style stays all night, finish with a mist of Tossel Me Softly hairspray.
01:46And that's it. All you need is your flirtiest dress and you're ready for wherever the night takes you. Ciao!
01:51Snow on the sand. That made my feet feel weird. I rub the back.
