STEP 2: Apply JUSTICE Professional Sea Salt Spray all over your damp hair.

STEP 4: Using your wide-toothed comb, divide your hair into a 'hot cross bun' section (i.e. 4 equal sections).


STEP 5: Comb your first section of hair together and style it into a tight plait. Repeat this step for all 4 sections. 


STEP 6: Twist each plait into a bun shape on top of your head and secure in place with a hairband or some bun pins. Repeat this for all 4 plaits and you should end up with 4 buns on top of your head.


STEP 7: Leave your 4 plaited buns to dry completely.


STEP 8: Take out the buns and gently unravel the plaits with your fingers.


STEP 9: Once again, grab your wide-toothed comb and gently brush your hair into the desired look.
