Tutorial | High Ombre Braid Ponytail *Waist Length*

What'S up guys welcome back to my channel today, I'm going to be showing you guys hide at this high on braid braid ponytail, it's waist length, although you cannot really see it is that's my waist. You want to see how I did it. Keep watching so you're gon na need some clips. You'Re gon na need some scrunchies you're gon na need a hard and soft bristle brush you're, going to need a a detangling comb and edge brush some edge boosters. Some eco styler you're, also gon na need a spray bottle filled with water, got to be glued free spray, some type of leave in conditioner I'm using the Tri we leaving conditioner a blow-dryer and the hair. I am using the expressions ultra braid hair and I'm using the colors one in six. Thirteen and you're also going to need a scarf to lay down your edges. I did not picture it here so right now, I'm just parting, my hair off into four sections, so that is easier to detangle. My hair, I'm now going in with my spray bottle, filled with water, just to add in a little moisture, because you do not want to work on dry hair. I'M then going to go in with my tri wheat, leave-in conditioner, and I'm going to spray that throughout this section, when detangling your hair, you should always try and start at the bottom of your hair and then work your way up to the roots. To avoid tension and breakage, so I finished detangling the other sections off-camera and I just put them in these cornrow braids and now I'm going to start to blow-dry my hair. So right now, I'm just taking out the braids in the first section and I'm going to start blow-drying, my hair on low heat. So this is how my hair looks now that I've gotten a blow-dried and I'm now getting ready to start flicking my hair down. So the first thing I'm gon na do is comb all of my hair in one direction and I'm gon na start putting gel on the back. So I'm first gon na go in with a good amount of eco styler and I'm going to brush that in with a hard bristle brush and I'm then going to take some edge booster and I'm going to brush that in with a hard whistle brush as well. So now that I'm in the front I'm going to do the same exact steps, I did in the back into regards of sleeping my hair down, but in the front I'm going to be a little bit more chin. So, as you see, I started off with a soft bristle brush. Instead of a heart, I prefer using the headband scrunchies on my hair instead of the regular ones, because these really don't break as easily as the other scrunchies and I feel like it - has a more secure hold on my hair. So I'm now going in with some guys to be free spray, and I'm going to do this throughout the entire head. I'M gon na do it on the back and front, and this is just to ensure that my hair is really really slick. Of course, since I did not flat iron my hair and we still want to get that sleek look so using gossipy glue, freeze spray can give you that look. As you can see, my hair is getting very slick and, like I said, I'm getting ready to do. The same exact thing in the front after I do my edges doing my edges with edge booster and an edge brush, so I'm now just applying my silk scarf to lay down my edges. While I finish the rest of my hair, so this step is completely optional. What I'm doing is I'm putting my hair in three braids, but before I braid my hair, I'm putting eco styler on each section and then come and get out, because I find when I do this, my hair doesn't stick out of the braid as much as it Would'Ve and because my hair is like really really big and I have a lot of volume in my hair, this really helps like condense, the hair, so I'm now gon na start taking the hair out of the package and I'm gon na start separating it. I'M gon na be using two of the bundles. I guess you could say of the black hair and then I'm going to be using one of the blonde hair. So I'm separating all of the black hair into two separate sections, but you need to make sure they should take out a small amount of hair for your extra piece to wrap around your base at the end. But as you can see, I have two different sections for the black and then I have the one section that I'm going to use at the end and for the blonde hair for the one bundle that I'm going to use. I'M going to just break it up into tiny, like pieces, because I'm going to be adding that into the black hair way less smaller than it was before. And what I'm doing is I'm just taking small pieces of the blonde and I'm just combining it with the black little by little, and this is how you create the ombre effect. You want to start off kind of with like a lot of black and a little bit of blonde, and then you can go fully blonde at the bottom of the ponytail so that you get that ombre effect. I also want to make note that you're going to be adding in the little pieces of blonde to both of the two black portions that you separated at the beginning and remember to leave a bit of blonde without any black in it, so that you can add That to the end of the braid ponytail, so with the first section of the blackened bond here, makes I'm gon na be taking a scrunchie making a loop, and then I'm going to be placing this on top of my ponytail on top once the hair is on Top of your ponytails and it's secure, you can start braiding like normal you're, literally just going to braid like normal until it's time to add in hair. So I'm now gon na add in my first piece of hair, coming from the black and blonde combined and when you're, adding in hair just place it on top of two of the portions of the braid and then continue braiding. But when you're, adding in the black and the blonde, you do want to add it like slowly and you want to be really careful to make sure that it's secure in the braid. So it's now time to add in the first piece of blonde hair and what I'm doing is the same thing I did when I added in the hair at the beginning, I'm just placing it on top of two portions of the braid and then I'm braiding, like Normal somehow right here the hair got tangled, and this is why you really want to make sure that your sections are evenly distributed and they're separated they're, not touching they're, not gon na get tangled. I unfortunately did not make sure of that, and this got tangled as a result, but it's an easy fix. You can just clamp your braid, where you're at so that it doesn't unravel and then detangle it. So when you get to the end of the braid, you want to take a very small portion of the hair. You want to wrap it around and create a loop, and this just helps the hair not unravel, and it seals off the end, and you can then go ahead and dip it in some hot water to seal the ends even more and loosen up the braid. So now it's time to work with that extra piece of hair we left out for the base, I'm going to be creating a loop and wrapping it around my ponytail, just as I did with the original braiding hair once you get it on there, you're going to Just wrap the hair around the base and you want to do this very very tightly so that is secured and at the end, we're going to spray some got to be glue, free spray to seal it and make sure that it's secure. So now I'm just cutting away any flyaways, because when you're working with braiding hair, there's always going to be little flyaways and you don't want that to be seen. I'M now just kind of spreading out the braids to make it a little bit bigger. And this is also completely optional. If you like it the way it is at the beginning, you don't have to do this, so this is the completed extended, ombre, braid ponytail, don't forget to dip it in hot water. If you want it to loosen up a bit, I didn't dip mine in hot order. Some mine is a little bit stiff, but by dipping it in hot water, it can definitely loosen it up right now, I'm just showing you guys how to create a bun. With this, I really like how the bun looks with the ombre hair. It looks really cool and I think it looks really cute
