Method 1.
This style is a little different than your standard messy side braid.
Gather Your Hair
To make this a side braid you need to first gather all of your hair off to one side of your head, usually the opposite side of where you part your hair.
Split Into Sections
Now you need to spit the large bunch of hair into three equal sections.
Braid the Middle Strand
Take the center section and braid it before you braid all of the other stands. Secure it with a rubber band.
Mess the Braid
Using your fingers mess the braid by gently pulling on the sides. Start at the bottom of the braid and pull on both side and work your way up.
Re-Section Hair
Now split your hair into the three sections again, making the messy braid the middle stand.
Braid All Three Strands
Finish braiding all three strands and secure the ends with a rubber band.
Finish the Braid
Lastly, mess the braid again with your fingers.
Method 2.
This style is your standard messy side braid.
Separate The Top
Section and clip the very top layer, the crown, of hair.
Gather Your hair
Now gather all of your hair but a small section off to one side.
Split & Braid
Now you need to spit the large bunch of hair into three equal sections and braid, securing the end with a rubber band.
Mess the Braid
Gently loosen and mess the braid with your fingers by pulling on both sides of the braid. Start at the bottom and work your way up.
Style the Top & Side
Un-clip the top section. Using a 1″ curling iron add some curls to the top and side. Then run a paddle brush through the curls to soften them.
Set The Style
Finish the style with a light application of hairspray.
