The waterfall braid also
known as the cascade braid recently exploded as the new "trend braid"
of the season. The waterfall effect looks cool and complex, but it's
easier to style than you think. Give this beautiful braid a try when
Beautylish takes you through the how-to!
STEPS 1 + 2
Section Off
The waterfall braid works best on
straight or loose waves. Brush out all the knots with a wide tooth
comb. Part your hair how you normally would, and begin your braid on the
right side of your part. Grab the top section and divide into three
strands.
STEPS 3 + 4
Braid As Usual
Braid your strands regularly
three times, beginning from the right strand. When you get to the left
strand (the part closest to the middle of the scalp), add more hair to
it like a French braid and fold that strand to the center.
STEP 5
Drop the Strand
This is where it gets tricky.
After you've French braided your left strand (now center), drop the
right strand and let it fall down. Pick up another small section of hair
next to where your original strand fell—that's your new right strand.
STEP 6
Step and Repeat
Repeat this process—French braid
the left strand, drop the right strand, and pick up an adjacent new
piece. Gradually cascade the style towards the middle of your head.
STEP 7
Pin and Secure
Once you've reached a comfortable
point to stop your braid, secure it to your scalp with bobby pins. You
don't have to pin up your hair perfectly in this section since you'll
cover up the pins with a hair accessory later.
STEPS 8 + 9 + 10
Fishtail It!
Braid the remaining piece of hair
left from your cascade into a fishtail braid. Not sure how to create
this mermaid-inspired style? It's easy with this helpful fishtail braid
tutorial. Secure the braid with a thin hair tie.
STEP 11
Accessorize
Add a cute bow or flower to hide
your bobby pins and give this look some extra hair flair. Secure your
barrette tightly to your scalp and braid for a firm hold.
Take the extra strand of hair on
the opposite side of your face and pin it back into the flower barrette
so it blends in with your cascade. Spritz with a light-hold hairspray,
and you've got yourself a beautiful and romantic summer hair style!
