Reverse French Braid – Best Summer Hairstyle for Long Hair

Here’s an absolute show-stopper!  It’s ultra-trendy, highly original and full of creative techniques for a completely contemporary style!

The sides of this braid are brushed lightly off the face, to give a fashionably messy effect and loosely woven into a vertical French braid.  The clever weaving technique produces a wonderful variety of shapes and colours.   Just look how the triangular sections reveal the edgy dark roots and form a fantastic contrast with the flowing curves in the braid!

The multi-toned braid is secured at the crown and the rest of the hair is imaginatively styled into a witty mixture of retro 1950’s pin curls and lazy curves, which together seem to form an avant-garde golden coronet!

This fabulous hair design plays with notions of the traditional fairy-tale princess wearing a pretty gold crown – and completely subverts it – to show us the best of innovative, 21st century hair design!  Amazing!
