FESTIVAL HAIR INSPIRATION

With Splendour quickly approaching, change up your hair looks with these three braided festival hairdos as created by our intern Asha, who has an amazing Youtube channel called Beauty By Asha. They’re all super simple, cute and will be sure to keep your hair off your face so you can still dance as much as you want in the crowd!

If you’re not as handy as Asha or if you just like to be pampered, head to our boutique during Splendour (Thursday-Saturday, 10am-1pm) to get your hair braided on us by Edwards & Co! Times and bookings are limited, see our Instagram in the coming week for full details!
