Also known as the unicorn braid, the rope braid is quickly becoming the “it” braid for the season. It’s super easy, just a little tricky to get started like our fishtail friend. Braids are my favorite hairstyle for summer because they keep my crazy mane out of my face and off my neck. Plus it looks a lot cuter than a regular ponytail or a bun. I know we’re always going on and on about our love for our twisted hairstyles, but there are so many variations we can’t get sick of them!

So watch below to find out how to do a rope braid!

On my face: MAC Prep + Prime, MAC Studiofix powder, MAC Wonder Woman blush, Lancome Doll Lashes mascara, Revlon Just Bitten in Passion

Hair: Love Amika Oil Treatment, HANA Shine Shield Thermal Protectant, air dried
