Thick hair ties are an essential for the double-brand braid.
You can try matching them to your hair color.
Or opt for a different shade as a detail.
Use a styling oil to make hair super shiny.
Or opt for a cream that will combat frizz if you hair flyaways.
Use a comb to define a middle part.
Then, brush back hair using a boar-brustle brush.
Set the look using a strong hold hairspray.
Touch up your ends with a smoothing oil.
If you want to repeat the look the next day, use a restyling spray like this one from Oribe.
