hi my name is Lauren from Expert Village. I?m here to show you various styles of using braids. You can achieve various hairstyles. You can utilize braids to create tasseled wave look or longs wave. Depending on how tight you would like it depends on the size of braid you use. Normally you when get out of the shower and your hair is still damp you may use a little product to put in. Nothing too heavy because the braid will keep to itself. Section your hair into little sections and braid your entire hair. Tie each braid off with rubber bands simply to set your hair. A way to get the desired tasseled waves without having to use thermal curlers everyday. A good way to achieve the look without having to worry about anything else. Flip the ends when you tie with rubber bands as to continue the tasseled look. Sections should be medium in size for the tasseled wave look. Remember wherever you part your hair with braids that is where your part will be the next day. Normally you'll sleep with them. By pulling your braid downward you are creating a tasseled wave look that's mostly on your ends not along the root. The curlier you want your waves the closer to the root. Go around your entire head which is time consuming. However in the morning you will take them out and add a little bit of fiber product, or oil based product and slightly very loosely pull your fingers thru.
