The edgy French braid Selena Gomez wore for the MTV Movie Awards can be recreated in just six steps.
The singer-and-actress stole the show with her edgy take on a French
braid at the glitzy event in Los Angeles on Sunday. Selena graced the
red carpet in a dazzling gold Julien Macdonald mini-dress, covered in
lace and gold fringing. Although her dress was stunning, it was her hair
that grabbed plenty of attention.
Selena
added a unique twist to the trend for plaits by putting her long dark
mane into a high bouffant with a twisted side braid.
Leading hair extension specialists at Paul’s Hair World insist the look can be recreated in just six steps.
“If
you’re lucky enough to have very long hair, this style will be pretty
easy to complete. If not, we recommend using clip in hair extensions to
get the necessary length to complete the French braid, also adding
thickness to the style,” Paul’s Hair World explains.
Step two sees
the hair on the crown of the head backcombed to create a small
bouffant, before it is pinned into place. Using a backcombing brush
makes it quick and easy to get height and body.
In step three,
just smooth the hair and create six small pony tails down the centre of
the head. Step four can be tricky, so it is worth asking a friend to
help as you need to create a French braid using all the pony tails.
“Step
five: to get Selena's tousled look, gently pull the braid apart
slightly, and pin to the smooth area of your hair to ensure the
ponytails are completely covered. Use the back comb brush to carefully
backcomb the French braid to add to the messy look,” the hair company
adds.
The final step simply involves using extra hold hairspray to
prevent any flyaway hairs from escaping and to keep the braid in place.
