HOTD: Gorgeous, loose French braid

You guessed it, it's another HOTD post! This time, it's a loose French braid! The pictures were taken at 1:00 in the morning, so excuse the darkness all around her, haha.

This is a great messy, beachy look (we were on vacation at the seaside, expect some pictures soon!). It can be worn on one side, and it looks just as great. If you have sideswept bangs like Damyana , you have two options:

1: You can leave it (like in the first picture), for a more casual, laid-back look.

2. You can pin back it to create a more formalish look, or gently backcomb it and then pin it for a more voluminous finish.

The French braid is perhaps the most popular type of braid, but if any of you girls struggle with it, this awesome youtube video explains it all. Remember, practice makes perfect! To create "the loose effect" just pull lightly at the braid, or just start braiding more loosely wherever you consider you need to.

Hope you liked it! Which type of braid is your favourite and which one do you find is the easiest to do?
