Prep:

First things first, you’ll need loose red hair extensions. Grab the Darling Superstar in the shade red that will not only last long because of its high quality but also lend a natural and seamless look.

Before you begin styling, remember to detangle, cleanse and then apply a leave-in conditioner that will rid your hair off the frizz and fly-aways. Hydrating also lends a soft gloss to your hair.

Style:

..and it’s braiding time! Part your hair slightly off-center and take a section of your hair (enough to create a medium-thick plait) on each side. Create a plait on each side framing of your face.

Bring the two plaits together at the nape of the neck and join it together into one large plait with the remaining hair. Swing the braid to one side like Rihanna.

Complete The Look:

Finish the look by slicking any lose hair on the front with some edge control and spray on some shine serum for a glossing, healthy-looking finish.
