Hair Tutorial - Edgy Plait



Hi everyone!
Here is a tutorial for the edgy plait I posted a picture of on Instagram a few weeks ago. I usually do this hair style for work as it keeps my long hair out of the way and doesn't fall out.


1. Start with dry or wet hair depending on what is easiest for you. If you have fine hair you may want to do this with slightly dirty hair or add dry shampoo. My hair is thick so I am just doing it with clean and slightly damp hair.



2. Create a quiff in the front by grabbing a section and teasing it underneath then pinning it back with a couple of bobby pins.



3. Grab a section behind the clips and start french-plaiting underneath rather than over the top so the plait is out from your head more.


4. Plait right down to the bottom of you head. All your hair should be plaited in at this point.


5. Continue the plait to the bottom of your hair.


6. Tie it off and give it a spray with hairspray.



All done!!
Tip: For awesome hair two days in a row do this plait with wet hair and leave in overnight. When you take it out the next morning you will have amazing waves with little effort! I will usually plait my hair in the morning before work and leave it in for that day and overnight to get the waves like in the picture below. To avoid awkward kinks in the front remove the bobby pins before going to bed.
