Just in time for the holidays, Marianka Van Niekerk has designed this elegant look
Choose your base colour, any nude shade will work.
Choose four different colours that you want to do your braid with. Make sure that you will be able to tell the lines apart from each other.
Start with your first colour, creating a half French line. Don’t make a straight line as it needs to crisscross. Cure.
Start with your second line, tilting it half up to the other side, slightly overlapping the first colour. Cure each colour so that they don’t bleed into each other. Continue with line three and four using the same steps.
