Today we want to share a very pretty and elegant hairstyle. This is a 4 strand waterfall that will impress friends and family. I love half-up styles. You get to keep your hair down but away from your face.To see your own photo recreations of this style featured in our app, feel free to tag your photos on IG with: #CGHWaterfall4Strand
Items Needed: Brush, rat-tail comb, spray bottle, hair elastics, bobby pins, and hairspray {if desired}.
Time Requirement: 5-10 minutes
Skill Level: Hard
Step-By-Step Instructions:
- Part your hair to one side.
- Pick up a small section of hair on the strong side of the part.
- Divide into 4 pieces. We will label them 1-4. The highest strand (closest to the top of the head) will be number 1, and then go down 2,3,4.
- Cross strand 1 under strand 2 and over strand 3.
- Now take strand 4 over strand 3 and under strand 2.
- Now we start again, label the strands 1-4. #1 is the highest strand. Only this time pick up a new section of hair at the top and add to strand 1 before you start step 4.
- Then you pick up a small piece of hair and add to #4 and repeat step 5.
- Start over again and label pieces 1-4. #1 is the highest strand. Repeat step 6.
- This time, before you start with strand 4….. drop strand 4, pick up a new piece to replace strand 4. Cross strand 4 over strand 3 and under strand 2.
- Repeat steps 8 & 9 until you reach the other side of your head. Stop your water fall and do a couple of 3 strand braid stitches to secure your braid.
- Secure your braid as close to the head as possible with a small elastic.
- Go back and pancake the edges of your braid to create more volume.
- Pick up a small section of hair from the front of the other side of the head (opposite of where you started your braid), twist backward and lay over your elastic. Secure with a bobby pin.
