Breaking it Down: How to Do a Side Braid

Step 1: Add some mousse to your hair.

To start your braids to the side hairstyle, you’ll need to evenly distribute some of the TRESemmé TRES Two Climate Protection Mousse throughout your damp hair. This product works to hold the shape of your style and help hold it in place during even the most humid of days. For this process, work the product from the roots-to-ends, then rough-dry your hair using a paddle brush.

Step 2: Use a curling iron.

Using a medium-size curling iron as you create loose waves at random parts of your hair, until all hair is completely curled. Don’t worry about creating perfect curls since this look is all about a romantic and laid-back side braid. When you’ve achieved your desired loose curl, lightly tease your hair at the roots for some added volume.

Step 3: Create a deep-side part.

Separate your hair into a deep-side part, then pull all loose strands to the side away from your part. Create a basic three-strand braid and secure with a clear elastic. For those that are more advanced in the hair braided department, you can opt for a sophisticated fishtail braid or breezy mermaid braid as you side braided style.
