Cornrows and Curls

This fun and young style combines small, cornrow-type braids with lots of volumes curls.





How To:

1. Begin with dry hair that has been prepped using a volumizing gel or mousse.
2. Section out the front and sides, clipping the back section out of the way.
3. Create the sections around your face. This will depend on how many braids you desire and where your part will be.
4. Starting close to the hairline, begin braiding each section back, holding them super tight. Secure the ends of the braid with small clear elastics.
5. Once all your braids are in, work the loose ends into the back section. Starting at the top, begin lifting and placing hair to desired shape. Pin each section using bobby pins in a criss cross or X pattern.
6. Finish off your look with a bright bow, sparkly clip, or flower!
