- As you can tell, this braid is all about major volume. So unless you’ve already got thick, voluminous texture, start by curling your hair (check out my favorite irons, below) and teasing it at the hairline and crown to create major volume.
- Then, pull your hair over your shoulder and French-braid it, leaving out the layers and flyaways around your face to soften the look.
- Continue braiding to the ends, securing it with an elastic band and a coat of hair spray.
