Tessi Wood: Elsa Braid Hairstyle

Such a fun style for any girl. Elsa lover or not. Quincy's hair stayed really well since we used elastics for part of the style. This style took us about 10 minutes. Find us on Instagram @teswood (www.instagram.com/teswood) and Facebook Q's Hairdos (www.facebook.com/qshairdos)

Starting with dry hair, take the crown section and tease the hair.
We used a Conair teasing brush which I will link below.
I teased her hair in three sections adding the hair into the previous section as we go.
Once I have all of the crown section teased, I gently comb or brush with the teasing brush over the top of the hair in the front.
Using a comb, I straightened out the part lines.
Now I like to pull out a few shorter hairs to frame the face before securing the rest in an elastic.
I like to use this spray gel, which I will link below to tame the fly aways.
Secure the crown section with an elastic at the back of the section.
Taking the large Topsy Tail, which I will link below.
Put the pointed end down through the top of the ponytail.
Put the ponytail through the loop and pull the Topsy Tail downwards.
Now we will tease the side sections just above the ears.
I teased the sides in two sections each.
Now lightly brush the hair towards the back.
Grab the rest of the hair that sits above the ears and secure it all with the sides in an elastic.
Take the Topsy Tail again and put the pointed end in.
Put the ponytail through the loop and pull downwards.
Take another 2-3 inch section of hair and secure in an elastic. Repeat with the Topsy Tail tool.
With the remaining hair we will do a simple three strand braid until the end of the hair.
I pulled the braid to the side as I was braiding it, so it will sit more like Elsa, but this is not necessary.
Secure with an elastic.
Pancake the braid for the desired look.
Curl the pieces we left out to frame the face. Making sure to curl the hair towards the back of the head.
