Loose Braid Out Waves

I wanted to do some messy, loose waves in my hair and couldn’t figure out the best way to do it and make it last. So after several attempts, Here’s what I finally came up with and I love it.

I braided my hair into 3 large braids. One on each side and then one in the middle. On dry hair, I used Frizz Ease’ Air Dry Waves Styling Foam in the palm of my hand. I rubbed a little of it first down the shaft of the hair and then one more pump during the braid itself. Honestly, this stuff holds so well that I really should have only used one pump per section. But I generally overdue everything when it comes to using hair products, HA!

I tie my hair down with a silk scarf and then go to bed. That’s my favorite part, so simple. No sitting under a dryer, no discomfort while I sleep. Just 3 braids comfyyyy braids :-D. I do them a little firm but not tight. In the morning when I wake up, I just unravel them and *heart eyes emoji* gorgeous loose waves.

This is mainly my go-to style for when my hair is on its last stretch before its time to wash. I usually wash my hair around once a week, so this gives me a few more days before having to wash all over again. This style usually lasts me about 3 days before getting tangled a little. But those 3 extra days are life saving when I dont feel like washing my hair. And the dirtier the hair the better the hold, lol. So this is a perfect little stretch and messy do 🙂
