Three fishtails unite in this dimensional, boho beauty by Atlanta-based stylist Melanie Sorrow. Sorrow, an Artist Connective member, has been doing hair for more than two decades and lives by the mission of being “against crunchy curls and wedding hair that falls apart before the first dance.”

In this tutorial, Sorrow showcases her skills using Sexy Hair Play Dirty spray, paired with a Pink Pewter headpiece on a Uniwigs wig.

And, she says, her specialty is listening to her clients so she can best create and customize a look that fits them and shows off their best characteristics.
