The Side Braid

WHY IT WORKS "Zoe Saldana's simple side braid is more casual and day appropriate than a full-on French braid," says Abergel, who works with Kate Beckinsale, Sandra Bullock and Kristen Stewart, among others. "I love the modern piecey ends that keep the look from being too severe."
EXPERT TIP This version works best if you have long layers. "The pieces slipping down in front are key," he says. Wave your hair first and start braiding very close to the nape of the neck. "And keep the ends undone—a dab of styling cream will help break them up," he adds.
