Looking for hairstyles to keep those strands away from your face and neck in the scorching summer heat? Braids to the rescue! Step away from the classic three-strand braid and try something different this time – snake braid.
Snake braid may look like the most intricate and difficult hairstyle out there - well, to be honest, it’s not the easiest - but that’s why we are here, to simplify it for you in a few easy steps. Ready to learn this unique hairdo you can rock this summer? Read on…
How to
Step 01: Begin by spraying some dry shampoo such as the TIGI Bed Head Oh Bee Hive Matte Dry Shampoo. Focus on the roots; this will give your hair texture as well as cleanse it instantly
Step 02: Part your hair at the centre, pick a section of hair from the crown area down to the ear creating a diagonal line
Step 03: Create a three strands braid and continue braiding up to 3/4th of your hair length
Step 04: Now, hold one of the three strands between your finger and slide the other two upwards. Gently pull the strand a little to give it a snake-like pattern
Step 05: Secure this braid at the back of your head using a bobby pin. And repeat the same process on the other side Step 06: Combine the two braids together and secure using a bobby pin.
