Antiope
Who else saw Wonder Woman in the summer and absolutely loved it? I know I did. During the movie, I couldn’t help but be distracted by all of the cool hairstyles worn. One of them was of course Diana’s (which I’ll have a tutorial on very soon), but also the style worn by her mentor, Antiope. This hairstyle definitely has quite a few steps to it, but it’s actually quite easy to get the hang of. You’ll be sure to feel like a warrior wearing this!
Materials:
1) Brush
2) 4 Small Hair Ties
Procedure:
1) Begin by brushing out your hair.
2) Put the top middle of your hair into a half up ponytail. Keep it loose to add volume.
3) Split the ponytail into two sections.
4) Separate a small piece of hair from the outer right section.
5) Begin a reverse fishtail braid by crossing the small piece underneath the right section and into the left section.
6) Separate a new piece of hair from the outer left section.
7) Cross the piece under the left section and incorporate into the right section.
8) Grabbing new outer pieces as you go, continue this braiding pattern for approximately 5 full (left and right) stitches.
9) This time before crossing again, take a small bit of hair from underneath the braid and add it into your outer right piece.
10) Cross under and incorporate into the left section as you did before.
11) Add a bit of hair from below the braid into your outer left piece.
12) Cross under into the right section once again.
13) Repeat steps 4-13 down your head. Make sure you are only adding in hair from directly underneath the braid and you are only doing so every few stitches.
14) Once the fishtail is at the nape of your neck, tie the braid off with a small hair elastic.
15) Very tightly pull the rest of your hair into a low ponytail below the fishtail braid. Try to make this as slick as possible.
16) Fishtail braid these two bottom sections together by repeating steps 3-8 approximately a third down your hair.
17) Finalize by going back and loosening up the fishtail braid and spraying over with hairspray.
