Sienna’s At-Home Salon Finish Protocol

For a gorgeous braid hairstyle that lasts all day, start by applying a heat protectant spray to your hair.

Then, use a round brush to blow-dry your hair until it’s completely dry.

Next, use a small amount of styling product to add texture and definition to your braid.

Finally, use a curling iron to add a few loose waves to your braid, and you’re good to go!

One of my favorite at-home braiding techniques is the fishtail braid.

To do this, start by taking a small section of hair from the crown of your head and dividing it into two equal parts.

Then, take a small section of hair from one of the two parts and cross it over the other part, creating a ‘fishbone’ pattern.

Continue this pattern until you reach the end of your hair, and you’ll have a beautiful, intricate braid that’s perfect for a special occasion.
