Step 6įinally, take any face-framing pieces, wrap them over the headband and secure into place for a neat, final, magical look. Bring the braid over your head and pin the end with the clips behind your other ear. Step 5Ĭreate an opening right by your ear on one side and secure the end of the braid behind your ear with some bobby pins. Once you reach the end, secure the rope braid with an elastic. Make sure to constantly tighten each section to keep the rope taught, otherwise it may come apart. Twist both sections tightly clockwise, then twist both those twists on themselves to create a rope effect. Take a 4-clip weft, and separate it into two sections. Now it’s time to create your rope braid headband. Repeat step 2 until all your hair is curled. Then, pull on the curl slightly to loosen it into a wave. Once curls, release the curl into the palm of your hand and let it cool before letting it go. Take a small 1 inch section of hair and curl it starting at the very top.
