Easy Steps in Creating Long Mermaid Waves
Start with healthy hair
A beautiful hairstyle always starts with healthy hair. Use shampoo and conditioner that suit your hair’s needs. If you want to make your hair soft and fragrant while preventing dandruff, we recommend CLEAR Complete Soft Care Anti-Dandruff Shampoo.
Add texture
Spritz TONI&GUY Sea Salt Texturising Sprayon your hair to give it texture and grip. This will make your long mermaid waves last longer.
Divide hair into sections
Part your hair in the middle and create two vertical sections. Then, take the right section and divide it further into three smaller sections to prepare for braiding.
Start braiding
Create three-strand braid on the right section of your hair. Simply cross the leftmost section over the middle section, then cross the right over the new middle section, and so on.
Secure your braid
Continue braiding until you reach the tips of your hair. Then, tie an elastic at the end of your braid to secure it.
Braid the other side
When you’re done with your first braid, proceed to braid the left section of your hair. Repeat the previous steps on the right section of your hair and secure your braid with an elastic.
Spritz hairspray
SpritzTONI&GUY Body Amplify Creation Hairspray on your braids to help them get more defined shapes. Hold the bottle around 10 cm away from your hair and spray the product evenly on your braids.
Unravel your braids
Remove your hair elastics and let your hair loose from your braids. Gently unravel your braids so your hair won’t lose its shape.
Finger-comb your hair
Let your waves fall beautifully by finger-combing them gently. You can also scrunch your hair a little to give it some bounce and volume.
