She once famously said that she does not have an Instagram account, and yet she is still all over it. Wondering who? The inimitable Kareena Kapoor Khan, of course! She does no wrong when it comes to fashion and beauty and we have to admit that our secret indulgence is Insta-stalking her!
When she stepped out recently in a canary yellow co-ord set and a stunning rope braid, it took us a moment to pick our jaws off the floor. Such a statement colour and belt, and topped off with a simple yet statement hairdo. Loved the rope braid? Go from “I wonder how to a rope braid” to “I totally got this” with our easy step by step guide to rope braids.
Brush your hair and make sure it is smooth and without tangles. Use a little hair spray and comb through the lengths of the hair. Secure the hair in a high ponytail with an elastic band and wrap a thin section of hair around the base to hide the elastic.
Section the ponytail into two equal parts and twist them both in the same direction. Now wrap the two twisted section around each other in the opposite direction. The two sections are twisted in a direction that is opposite to the direction in which the braid is twisted (refer to the above picture to understand better). This will create traction and hold the braid in place.
When you come to the end, leave the last 1 inch loose and secure it with an elastic band. Spray a final time to tame all the flyaways and add a finishing spray for a glossy shine.
