Day 4

Fourth day hair (cringing emoji). My Drybar dry shampoo is AMAZING but it doesn't work miracles. This day I have to make sure to keep my hair up and looking "put together". I went for a hike today, as I do on many Mondays, so I had a great excuse to pull it back. My favorite way to pull my hair back but also look cute is to put it in a braid. This one is a little more difficult to figure out on your own but so simple once you get it down. My hair braids better when its dirty so my fourth day hair is perfect. 

Step 1: Start with a heavy side part and brush all your hair over the shoulder you want your braid to fall on.
Step 2: Grab two small sections and start your fishtail braid by crossing one section UNDER to the opposite section. By crossing the pieces under you will get the "braid on top of the hair" effect. 
Step 3: With each new small section of your braid, include a small section from the rest of your hair (like a french braid) all the way to the nape of the head and then finish braiding down the hair.

<---This is what your braid should look like at this point.
Step 4: Before you tie the bottom off, pull the braid out the make it appear fuller and messier. You can pull the braid out to your discretion. Personally, I pull mine out a lot and I also mess the braid up more by rubbing the braid in my palm. 

I spray mine with hairspray and add some bobby pins because I have some layers that like to stick out and get too crazy for me.

To be real with you guys, during my hike it was SOOOOO windy and my hair ended up in a bun (super sad emoji) annndd my hair tie broke so it was a bit of a disaster. But can we talk about how beautiful it was. I love when I start my hike as the fog is burning off so its a bit chilly at first but by the time I finish its nice and sunny.
