To get the crown braid, start by taking one large section of hair on each side of the head above the ear and braid using four strands. Secure each end using clear elastics.
Then fold each braid up and over your head like a headband, securing each end behind the opposite ear with bobby pins. (I like using pins that match my hair color like Goody's ColorCollection Wavy Bobby Pins.) You can leave the rest of your hair down or go for the full look by pulling leftover hair into a messy bun.
Remember that hair is easier to braid when it's a little dirty, so this look is great for a second or third day style. If you just washed it, Graziella recommends drying it and then creating texture by dusting it with
Shu Uemura Volume Maker Invisible Texturizing Powder.
