Prep damp hair with Invisible Control and Model Behavior. Combing these two products creates a smooth and soft texture with a bit of grit, an ideal prep for a flawless braid.

Blow dry hair, which will allow Invisible Control to work with the natural texture of the hair, giving it added volume.




Braid hair into a three-section French style braid, stopping at the top of the ear. After reaching the top of the ear, transition into a fishtail braid by combining the three sections into one and pulling the other side over.







Take the two large sections and continue pulling small pieces of hair from the underside of one section and incorporate them into the other, alternating as you move down the head.



















NEVO Invisible Control provides the internal memory and added support to hold the braid. NEVO Model Behavior smoothes fly-aways and adds a natural sheen to the roped strands. Visit pravana.com.
