Get the look: romantic braids by ghd

Anthony Turner takes inspiration from the SS17 catwalks including Erdem, Chloe, Emilia Wickstead and Zac Posen for a soft, romantic hairstyle that looks chic and effortless. "It's a pretty look that translates well into wedding hair. It's not too considered or elaborate." Anthony Turner explains how to get the look 1 Prep with a salt spray before blow-drying hair downwards using ghd air hairdryer and fingers. 2 Loosely curl the hair in different directions with the curve classic curl tong. 3 Use the ghd tailcomb to create a middle parting then secure hair into two separate ponytails at the nape of the neck. Tie with elastic. 4 Braid each ponytail and then loosely dishevel with hands to give the braids a deconstructed texture. 5 Cross the braids over and pin flat against the nape of the neck. They must stay flat against the head and not create a bulky silhouette. 6 Gently pull out sections around the hairline before wrapping a matte black ribbon around the hair and underneath the braids, securing in a bow at the side of the head.
