ELONGATES THE NECK

A chunky side braid that runs from above the ear and down causes the eye to look up and down, opening up the neck for a beautiful swan-like look. Plus, the 3D effect of a braid adds hair-plumping texture.

To do: Curl 1" sections of hair with a 1" curling iron; let cool. Make a deep side part in line with the arch of the brow, then on the light side of the part, weave a French braid from above the ear down and pin beneath hair in back.
