Items
needed: Comb
(to make a straight part down the middle), two ponytail holders, a little
gel, hair ornaments or clamps - optional.
Instructions
Step
1: Wash/Condition your hair.
Step
2: Apply your products with damp hair, I use prefer a heavy
leave-in conditioner.
Step
3: Spilt your hair into two sections and use a ponytail holder
to make ponytails and let air-dry. Avoid using rubberbands, which can
cause breakage use a cloth type ponytail holder.
To
make a single puff in the center of your head, checkout the instructions
for making a PHHB or a Brastrap Headband below.
Notes
- The
direction the hair is parted is how it will flow when taken out.
If you want to wear your all all back with a headband, then don't
make a part down the middle of your head.
- You
don't have to braid very tight, but braid with a firm hand and try
to make a neat braid for a neat braid-out.
- Braiding
with damp hair gives me tighter, longer-lasting braid-outs.
- You
can also have different braid-out looks. Doing a "cornrow-out"
or a "flat-twist out" with about 10 cornrows or flat-twists.
- Make
sure that your hair is COMPLETELY DRY once you unravel your braids.
If your hair is not completely dry, you will end up with more of
a "fuzz-out" lol.
- For
a "crimp" style, defined style create around 25 - 30 plaits.
- For
a "deep wave" look, create 14 to 16 plaits.
- For
a "chunky fro" go create 5 to 8 plaits.
