Pro Tips

• Use bobby pins. You definitely want to have some bobby pins on hand to pin your hair for these hairstyles. Whether you do a top knot or crown braid, having bobby pins will help.
• Pomade. I also like this Homemade Hair Pomade. It is perfect for quickly taming frizzies in your hair. This is great if you have loose curls or face framing layers to keep hair in place. It is especially great for short haired styles as well.
• Texturing Spray. You can also use a texturing spray depending on your hair type. Learn How to Make Sea Salt Spray.
