Dessange Expert Video Tutorial: Effortless Braided Side Hairstyle

Required Materials

  • A tail comb
  • A brush
  • Flat barrettes
  • Two rubber bands
  • Shine serum
  • Sculpting wax
  • Fixing hairspray

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. On one side of the hair, draw two parallel lines. Brush the remaining hair back and secure it to make braiding easier.

2. Warm the sculpting wax between your fingertips, then apply it to the roots of the hair section for the braid.

3. Start braiding the hair between the two lines in an African braid style: as you progress, incorporate additional strands to lay it flat against the scalp. Finish with a classic braid and secure with a rubber band.

4. Mist with fixing hairspray. Curl the lengths with a straightening iron, then brush them out for a soft wavy effect, and finish with another light spray.

5. Using the flat barrettes, tuck the lengths to the side opposite the braid. Complete the look by applying shine serum.

And you're done! This professional Dessange style is perfect for any occasion.
