In Part 3 of our breakdown for Braided Hairstyles for Black Women, let’s walk through the exact hands-on technique I teach my clients so their hair looks freshly styled in ten minutes or less.

Sienna’s At-Home Salon Finish Protocol
One of my favorite at-home styling routines is a quick and easy 10-minute blowout using a round brush and a blow dryer.
To start, I like to use a heat protectant spray to help prevent damage and frizz.
Then, I’ll section my hair into small parts and blow dry each section using a round brush, working from the roots to the ends.
This helps to add volume, smooth out my hair, and create a sleek, polished look.
Another great at-home styling technique is a simple braid. To create a braid, start by brushing your hair to remove any tangles or knots.
Then, take a small section of hair and divide it into three equal parts.
Begin a regular braid, crossing the right strand over the middle strand, then the left strand over the middle strand.
Continue braiding until you reach the end of your hair, then secure with a small elastic band. For a more polished look, you can also add a few spritzes of hairspray to set the braid in place.
