STEP-BY-STEP

STEP 1: Apply shampure dry shampoo to your roots and massage into the hair and scalp with your fingers to eliminate excess oil and revive hair.

STEP 2: Spray heat relief thermal protector to the mid-lengths and ends of your hair, and brush through for even distribution of freshly detangled and conditioned hair.

STEP 3: Separate your hair into two sections, twisting each section around your index fingers. Bring the twists to the baseline of your hairline and secure in a low ponytail. Braid your hair in a simple three-strand braid, leaving a few inches of hair unbraided. Loop the bottom into the top of the braid, and start loosening the braid for an undone, messy effect.

STEP 4: Spritz your ends with more thermal protector, then loosen and rough up to desired casual messiness.
