This is a style I've sported on numerous occasions (and in my Woven post) and I finally filmed a Tutorial for it. It's simple, cute, and perfect for spring! What do you think? :)
What you'll need...
Combs/Brushes
Heat Protectant (Tresseme)
Finishing Spray (Tresseme...forgot to include a clip with me using it, but you get the gist!)
Hair Bands
Bobby Pins/Hair Grips
Straightner (Mine's a DIVA one, but any will do!)
Extensions (Expression, Half a packet for each braid. Can be purchased in any Afro-Carrib Hair Store!)
~~~
On my Face
Eyes : Blacktrack Fluidline (MAC), Bad Gal Lash (Benefit)
Lips : Cherry Lipliner & Ruby Woo Lipstick (MAC)
Face : Face & Body Foundation, Studio Finish Concealer (MAC)
Nails : Aquamarine (Mavala)
