The sleek braid is our twist on the classic ponytail: timeless, chic, and ideal for the windy winter days. This style keeps your hair compact and secure, making it not only elegant but also practical. Whether you're heading to work or braving the elements during a festive evening out, the sleek braid is both functional and sophisticated.
Our co-founder Charlotte demonstrates how to achieve this look, perfecting every strand with our Silky Sculpt Hair Balm and the Sculpt Mini Boar Bristle Brush. With just a few steps, you can transform your hair into a sleek, polished braid that stays in place no matter what the weather throws your way.
Start with a ponytail. It doesn't need to be perfect at first, just gather your hair at your desired height. We recommend using our Silky Sculpt Scrunchies to protect your hair and prevent breakage.
Apply Silky Sculpt Hair Wax wherever needed to tame flyaways and ensure a smooth finish.
Brush the product through your hair. Charlotte uses our Sculpt Mini Boar Bristle Brush to achieve the sleekest, most polished look.
Re-do your ponytail. Use the brush to gather your hair tightly and smooth it back for a flawless ponytail.
Take a moment to ensure your ponytail is sleek and smooth with no stray hairs in sight.
Braid the ponytail. For a clean, tight braid, braid firmly. If you prefer a softer, more relaxed look, gently pull the braid outward along its length to loosen it.
Secure the end of the braid with an elastic. For a seamless evening look, opt for a micro elastic.
And there you have it, a sleek braid that's stylish, sophisticated, and perfect for windy winter days!
