The diamond braid has been going around on the social medias for about a month now and I get why! It’s such a beautiful hairstyle! This hairstyle looks really difficult, but actually, it’s just a basic infinity braid, that you add hair to and then take hair out of again later on. Lets make a diamond braid! If you are more visual and like to watch a video instead of reading, then you can watch my “Diamond Braid Step by Step” tutorial here!
