5-Minute Beauty: Hit Snooze and Braid a Headband

We love the hair headband! It keeps hair off your face while also adding a stylish touch to the average Pippi Longstocking braids. If Jessica Alba’s look seems complicated at first glance, fear not! We have a short list of tips to get this style quick. Make sure your hair is straight of wavy – curly hair will make it harder to braid and keep in place. Once relatively straight, make a center part from your hairline to the nape of your neck. Then braid each side. (Tip: Even though you’ll take these out later, secure each braid with a hair tie while styling.) Lift the right braid and wrap it from each to ear. Remove the tie and pin. Repeat by doing the same to the left braid. In addition to pinning near the ears, you can now begin to tuck pins discreetly throughout the braids. This way, the hairband doesn’t begin to droop and loosen the pins near the ears. Finally, tuck any loose hair underneath the braid and secure with pins. You should be all set! If it seems like a braid might sway, stick it with a pin, but remember to pin underneath the hairband, so no one will know your secret! Enjoy!
