Ahh, the beauty of updo's! This updo is perfect for work and play and with very few products, it's simple to do and works o'mazingly on an old twist out or braid out.
Check out the details below.
STEP 1:
CHOOSE YOUR FAVORITE MOISTURIZER/SEALER OR STYLER.
It's always best to make sure to moisturize your hair before styling. This helps prevent dryness and breakage. For this style, I used our Natty Moist to moisturize, then sealed in the moisture using our Natty Butter. You can also use your Natty Creme as a perfect marriage of both.
STEP 2:
SECTION OFF HAIR
Once your hair is nice and moisturized, place hair into 3 sections: Top, Middle, Back Two strand twist the top portion (see step 3 below) and back section.
STEP 3
FRONT BANG TWIST
2-strand twist front and back section in medium to chunky sized twists, leaving middle section loose. In the front, using bobby pins, randomly pin the section to create a nice textured front layered bang.
STEP 4-5
DETANGLE AND FLAT TWIST
Middle Section..Working one side at a time, detangle and section hair into 3 thin section and flat twist upward towards top center of your head. Leave the lower half of the flat twist loose. Once you have 3 flat twists, repeat on opposite side.
STEP 6
GATHER FLAT TWISTS
Working one side at a time, gather your 3 flat twists and combine into one large two strand twist. Repeat on the opposite side.
STEP 7
PIN IT UP
Working one side at a time, pull the large flat twist to the opposite side and pin using a bobby pin. Repeat on the opposite side.
STEP 8:
RELEASE THE BACK AND FLUFF
To minimize frizz and add shine, apply a natural oil or butter to your hands to remove back twists. I used my Natty Butter to remove my twists and gently separated each twist to achieve the fullness that I liked.
STEP 9:
FLUFF, FLUFF, FLUFF
perfect to your liking, add some fly earrings and ROCK IT OUT!!
