Hair Hack Instead of Braiding to Get Big Volume
Here, I’m going to show you a braiding technique that is similar to a three-strand braid but a little different.
This hairstyle will give you a ton of volume, so if volume is what you’re after, you’ve come to the right place.
Keep reading to find out what to do.
Tools and materials:
- Hair tie
1. Tie ponytail
Start by tying your hair into a ponytail.
2. Wrap hair around elastic
Next, take a small section of hair and wrap it around your hair tie to conceal it.
3. Divide ponytail into two
Divide your ponytail into two equal sections.
4. Wrap one section around other
Divide one of the sections of hair into two again and wrap these two sections around the other section.
5. Repeat
Repeat this process all the way down your hair.
Essentially, what you want to do is divide the outer section into two and wrap those two sides around the inner section.
Then, pull the inner section out, divide it into two, and wrap those two sides around the other (inner) section.
Tie your hair off with a hair tie when you get to the bottom.
6. Pull on hair
Finish off by gently pulling on your hair to make it more voluminous.
