To make this hairstyle, simply create two French braids in the reverse order and then attach them to form a crown on the top of your head. This is a beautiful hairstyle that holds even in wet conditions.

6. French Twist

In case you don't have much time left before your prayers in the morning, the French twist hairstyle can be made in less than three minutes. All that you need is to gather your hair, wrap it around and fix it with a metallic crescent pin or a pearl clip.
