"Daisy Chain" Bohemian Braid by Ammon Carver

To create this “daisy chain” look, which was one of 100 styles created for jcp salon’s lookbook, Nick Stenson, senior creative artistic director for The Salon by InStyle inside JCPenney, and the design team used a microcrimper to help bulk up the model’s hair and create the illusion of thickness. The chain gets a sophisticated touch through the knot detailing at the top, and the cascading waterfall effect along the side. “This bohemian look can be perfect for a younger clientele giving the illusion of a half up/half down style, or can be translated into a more formal look and wrapped up into a chignon,” says Stenson. Here, jcp salon team member Ammon Carver shows you how to re-create the look.
