Double Crown

Second day hair styles with John Frieda, John Frieda Luxurious Volume Dry Shampoo, Frizz Ease Touch-Up Crème, John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Visibly Deeper Collection styled by To Vogue or Bust Not to toot my own horn, but this hairstyle today is one of my faves ever. Often, I find these more intricate braided styles are more party-in-the-back, business-in-the-front, but because of the layered twists and delicate waves in the front, it’s just as pretty a style in the front as it is in the back (well, okay, maybe the back gives a bit more of the wow factor).

At any rate, so excited to share this today because it is deceptively easy to do and is the perfect second-day hair hack because it actually really uses that slight grit that your hair gets between washes to its advantage!

If you missed my first in my John Frieda brand series, you’ll definitely want to catch this dreamy Quadruple Knot tutorial here, and to learn more about the genius Brilliant Brunette Visibly Deeper collection. I’ve been using the shampoo and conditioner every time I hop in the shower which helps me easily maintain my chestnut colour at home while gradually deepening and enriching its natural brunette shade, but then have also added in the Visibly Deeper Colour Deepening Treatment a couple times a week to bring my brunette tones to another level in just 5 minutes! Love that while I’m shaving, washing my face, etc, I’m also building up the beautiful colour depth I need to really bring this style to life! And on that note, the tutorial!

What you need: John Frieda Luxurious Volume Dry Shampoo, Frizz Ease Touch-Up Crème, John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Visibly Deeper Collection for regular in-shower colour intensification (or blonde/red respectively depending on your hair colour!), bobby pins and clear elastic bands.
