2. Medium Hair Braid for Wedding
To recreate this awesome braid, start from the forehead with a Dutch braid and make sure the braiding is not too tight. End the knit in a low bun and pull off the edges as much as you can to give the braid volume. Also, create a wave that will make the face look elongated.

If you want volume, make sure you use Remy hair for the extensions. Build a big bun in the nape area and use sponges to create that fabulous dimension.
