Sienna’s At-Home Salon Finish Protocol
One of the best things about the half-up half-down hairstyle is that it’s incredibly easy to recreate at home.
To achieve the look, start by prepping your hair with a heat protectant spray and a round brush.
Then, use a curling iron to create a deep, sweeping curl that starts at the crown of your head and works its way down to the ends.
Next, use a small section of hair to create a braid or twist that starts at the crown of your head and works its way down to the ends.
Finally, use a light hold hairspray to set the look in place and add a touch of shine and texture.
To finish the look, use a light hand to add a few subtle wisps of hair to frame your face.
This will add a touch of whimsy and playfulness to the overall look.
