STEPS
Start by blow-drying the hair straight, using a round brush and applying Sebastian Professional Whipped Crème for light conditioning.
Then, apply Sebastian Professional Trilliant for thermal protection. Using a flat iron, straighten the hair for a sleek and shiny look.
Taking the hair from recession to recession, create a square section at the crown. Pull the remaining hair back into a low ponytail at the nape of the neck, and secure with an elastic.
Apply Sebastian Professional Texture Maker and Microweb Fiber to the square section, and create a middle part. Create a four-strand braid on both sides of the parting, braiding the hair down until the braids meet the ponytail.
