Next, create a disheveled deep part. Starting at the crown, along the part, begin braiding forward so the braid falls towards the forehead concealing the hair line, which is what gives way to a soft, romantic feel. Then start a second and third braid at the temples, braiding back on each side.
Use Kevin Murphy Easy Ride pomade to tame fly aways and add a bit of shine, then loosen the braids to make them more voluminous. To get the detail in the back, weave the braids together and pin them low to get a halo effect. Spritz with a bit of hairspray afterwards to hold and you’re all set!
