Summer's cutest (and easiest!) hair trend!

shawn johnson:jen lowery.jpg

Hey M girls!

You've seen Lauren Conrad sport the side braid lotsa times, and now this summer hairstyle is popping up everywhere! The braid is a great way to keep hair off your face while still looking super-cute. Instead of throwing on a headband, try this easy fad!

Step one: Make a part in your hair on either the right side or left side of your face. On the side you want your braid to go, separate hair into three sections at your roots.

Step two: Braid the hair the way you normally would, alternating bringing the right and left pieces into the middle. Work any pieces that fall on your face into the side braid.

Step three: Don't braid the whole thing. Make the braid long enough to pull your hair out of your face. From here, you can hold the braid together with a pin!

Let's dish:
-Will you wear this summer hair trend?
