How-To: Braided Crown

Celebrity hairstylists and co-owners of nine zero one salon, Riawna Capri and Nikki Lee turned to Bed Head and S Factor by TIGI products to create #UrbanGlam styles for their A-list clients attending the hottest and most anticipated musical event of the year. The duo will be on-site in Indio this weekend where The Beauty Coach (their luxury beauty salon on wheels) will offer a variety of looks perfect for festival season.

Inspiration: “The festival season has created its own trendsetting community. Since everyone spends so much time planning their outfits for festival season, we wanted to be able to complete their looks by offering braids, glitter parts, flower crowns, and spirit tattoos. The Beauty Coach is now the go to mobile salon and thrilled to be a part of festival season!” – Riawna & Nikki for Bed Head and S Factor by TIGI

Step-by-step:

  1. Roughly blow dry hair using fingers until completely dry. Use Bed Head by TIGI Joyride Texturizing Powder Balm from root to ends to create a base for the braids.
  2. Starting on one side of the head, use a French braid technique to braid across the top of the head until you reach the nape at the back of the head. Secure with an elastic. Repeat on the other side of the head.
  3. Wrap the ends of the braids around to the front of the head and tuck ends underneath, secure with bobby pins.
  4. Set with S Factor by TIGI Vivacious Hairspray.
