Wet look hair is always a daring look but what if you were to put a cute spin on it with a couple of small braids? This simple addition helps to soften the overall vibe this kind of hairstyle emits while retaining all of the on-trend slickness of a regular wet-look 'do.
Other benefits include obliterating any signs of dirty/greasy roots, an instantly fresh beauty look that works wonders with a bold red lip, and a really easy styling technique. Like, really easy...
Step one
Brush your hair through then part it straight down the middle. Use a tail comb to give you added accuracy.
Step two
Warm some Advanced Hairstyle TXT IT Deconstructing Gum in your hands then smooth it through all of your hair. Keep adding more as needed.
Step three
On either side of your face, take a small section of hair – including bangs – and braid it all the way down to the ends. Secure both braids with small, transparent hair ties.
Step four
At this point you can use your hands to muss and tousle the hair to switch up the texture a little or just run a comb through it all once more for smoother, more uniform result.
If wet look hair still seems somewhat intimidating, you could always ease your way into a style like this one by starting off with mixed wet and dry textures instead. Alternatively, you could just jump right in at the deep end – or look like you did – with an ultra-slick wet-effect chignon.
What do you think? Will you be getting on board with this trend?
