Unlike crop tops, braids are for everyone. Here’s how to incorporate accent braids into your short hairstyling routine.

1. Start with dry hair. I used a small pump of Wella Flowing Form Smoothing Balm while my hair was wet and styled as usual.

2. Lightly spray your strands with AG Hair Texture Spray Defining & Finishing Spray. The texture spray keeps your hair from being too soft and slipping out of the braid.

3. Grab small sections of hair and braid about 2/3 of the way down.

4.Take a bobby pin that has been sprayed with Sebastian Shaper Fierce hairspray and pin the braid underneath your hair.

5. Touch up your hair with a light veil of hair spray.

There you have it! What styles do you love to wear your short hair in?
