Sienna’s At-Home Salon Finish Protocol
For an at-home Dutch braid, start by prepping your hair with a texturizing spray and a light hold hairspray.
Then, use a curling iron to create loose waves.
And braid your hair in a Dutch braid pattern.
Secure the end with a small elastic band and finish with a light hold hairspray.
For a braided updo, try a braided crown or a fishtail braid and secure with bobby pins.
Finish with a light hold hairspray and a few spritzes of hairspray to set the style in place.
