Homecoming Hair | New Hollywood Glamour

Hello all!

As promised, here's the first installment of Homecoming Hair. 

I tried to come up with styles that were just plain awesome as well as easy to replicate either on yo'self or a friend. This first look features three small french braids along the side of the head and soft romantic waves. It's a bit Veronica Lake meets Rihanna and lemme just say, I dig it.

• create a deep side.
• follow the line of the part down the back of the skull, curving slighty toward the ear.
• section off three small horseshoe shaped chunks radiating out from the ear. 
• Clip the upper two sections up and out of the way.
• begin to french braid the section closest to the ear.
• tie it off with a small rubber hair tie.

• french braid the next two sections.
• curl the remaining hair.
• spritz with hairspray.

Tips:

-Make sure the hair falling closest to the face is curled outward from the head. This will add drama as well as keeping it from falling in your eyes.

-With either your fingers or a wide tooth comb, run through the curls to loosen their shape. 

-If the braid ends are visible, pin them along the nape of the neck

Pair with a killer smoky eye and red lip. Bonus if you're wearing all black and fierce heels.

You're gonna be smokin'.

Cheers,

Hannah
