How I Recreate It in Under 15 Minutes

I start by parting the hair cleanly down the middle or side, then lightly mist with water and a leave-in conditioner to smooth any tangles.

Sectioning into two or four parts, I braid each one, securing with small elastic bands that match the hair color for a seamless finish.

After braiding, I gently pull at the edges to soften the braid.

This gives that cute, slightly undone look.

A quick spritz of flexible hairspray on a toothbrush tames any baby hairs without making them stiff.

Turn to Page 4 for my all-night wear longevity secrets, touch-up kit essentials.

Always check how the finish and proportions look in both natural window light and warm indoor lighting so the result feels effortless from every angle.

And final studio checklist.
