Hairstyle How-To Video: The Festival Accessory Braid

It’s Friday, ladies, and you know what that means – it’s time for Friday Night Hair! Festival season is upon us so LOOK’s Beauty Writer, Katie Selby, shows us how to get in the party mood with a hippy hair update. For all of you hitting a festival this summer, this ’do is the perfect low-maintenance style. All you need is a ribbon, a couple of kirby grips and hairspray.

Great for an instant refresher on the second day when hair isn’t freshly washed, it’s a summer spin on the plait. Even the A-list are getting braidy on the red-carpet, with Nicole Scherzinger, Ke$ha and Blake Lively sporting the style. The crazier the accessories the better – think ribbons, feathers or brooches. Pick one or all three, anything goes with this ’do! Just scroll down to watch LOOK’s beauty writer Katie Selby show you how to do a festival braid at home. GP
