How To Create A Snake Braid
No time to wash your hair? Try this style by Ben Cooke from Lockonego which actually works best if your hair hasn't seen shampoo for a couple of days.
What you'll need:
Hair brush and comb
Clear hair tie
Hair spray
Hair gel
1:
Comb the hair into a side parting and sweep it all onto one side with your brush.
2:
Divide the hair into two equal sections which become the basis of your plait.
3:
Start braiding by holding the right section of hair with your right hand. Then, using your left hand, take fine strands from the opposite section and wrap it around both sections of the hair.
4:
Repeat this with the opposite section and keep going until you get to the ends of the hair.
5:
Secure the braid tightly with a clear elastic hair-tie or leave it loose and add some firm-hold spray to the ends and pinch together to help it hold.
6:
Now rub the plait with your fingers to add texture and smooth in some gel for a firm, sleek look and mould the plait into snake-like bends.
