What Do I Need to Create a Twisted Rope Braid?
Hairbrush
Hair bands
Hair grips
Hairspray
Step 1 – Sweep hair into a ponytail
Brush through hair and pull back into a high ponytail. Secure into place with a hair band.
Step 2 – Hide the hair band
To keep this look oh-so chic, we’re going to hide the hair band. Take a small section of hair from the ponytail and wrap it around the band. Secure into place with hair grips.
Step 3 – Time to twist
Divide your ponytail into two sections. Twist each side, holding a twist in each hand. Then, wrap the twists together and secure with a clear hair band.
Step 4 – Finishing touch
To keep your look in place for longer, finish with a spritz of hairspray.
