During the summertime it’s so easy to just pull up your hair and call it a day. I like to go for a different approach: braids! Braiding hair is super on trend these days. Sometimes braids may seem so complicated, but the beauty of the Internet is that there are plenty of hacks to get your braid to where you want it to be. When your braid isn’t looking Pintrest worthy, this is the post you turn to. Check out some of my favorite hacks when it comes to braiding hair! Let me know what you think in the comments section!
Colorful Ideas- When your braids are feeling bland, go for this helpful hack! It’ll bring some color into your look and makes it way more fun! I love this look and want to try it on one of my next beach vacations.
Give It Some Texture- Heidi braids are such a cute way to get your hair out of your face. I love seeing these braids on girls who know how to style them. The problem with the Heidi braid is that it needs to be a little messy so try and use a toothbrush to mess them up and bring them back to life.
Create Some Curl- Put your hair into two to three different braids like the photo below. To make those braids into cool beach curls, grab your iron and slightly press your way down to the end of the braid! It’s that easy.
Pancake It- Pancaking is a technique that gives your braids some volume. Basically, you pull out your braid to create a messy, picture-worthy look that’s perfect if you have thinner hair.
Make It Fashionable- Fascine your braid with a bobby pin rather than a hair tie. Create a cool knot in order to make the look more fashion forward. It’ll definitely make for a funkier look.
