GET THE LOOK; ALICIA KEYS INSPIRED DO!!

Hiya,
 How's everyone doing? I was browsing through the web and came across Alicia Keys at the Billboard Awards 2012 and I tell ya, this Lady is fast becoming my Hair Updo Style Icon, whoever is her stylist sure knows how to make it work!!! Remember her Grammy hair up do I tried out HERE, well this time around she incorporated that big braid look I love so much, Check her out;




I saw this picture and even though I was not going any where special, I just had to whip out my combs and try it out for my self!! Luckily Essence Magazine has a step by step tutorial on how to get the look.

So the first thing I did was smooth out my edges and hold my hair in a high ponytail;

Then I grabbed some regular expression extensions to make the braid big and voluptuous (even Alicia Keys  added extensions in);


Finally I took the Braid round my head and pinned it in place, then tugged at the braid so it looked bigger like Alicia's;


This is one look I will definitely try again and when I do, I will use extensions closer to my hair color and I will make the ponytail more to the side and the braid even fatter, in fact I will work this style to the fullest!! Can't wait :) Till then, ladies tell me what you think, you like?
