Chanel your inner bohemian goddess this summer with the mini half-up double waterfall twist — a version of the classic waterfall twist, this ultra-cool style is easy-to-do and gives an effortlessly beachy vibe.
- Start with hair’s natural texture—subtle waves will enhance this style’s beachy feel.
- Take a small section of hair close to the temple, leaving some pieces to hang loosely in front, and separate that section into two equal pieces.
- Twist the piece closest to the hairline over the second piece.
- Holding the two pieces of hair in one hand, grab a small piece of hair from above the twisted section in your other hand and place it between the first and second pieces. Let the new piece hang loosely—you will never add hair to the original sections.
- Twist the piece closest to the hairline over the second piece again and place a new section of hair from above the twist between the original two pieces.
- Continue twisting the two original sections, adding a new piece of hair between each one, until the braid reaches the back of your head; secure the braid with a bobby pin (for an in-depth look at the waterfall twist, click here)
- Repeat steps two through six on the opposite side—make sure to use sections of hair even with and similar in size to the first side.
- Once both sides of the head have been braided, unpin the braids and secure them with a thin or clear elastic.
- Disguise the elastic by wrapping a strand of hair from underneath a braid around the elastic.
- Secure the wrapping strand with a bobby pin.
