What You’ll need

Hairbrush
Bobby pins
Hair tie
Hairspray

STEP 1: Prep your hair

Start with clean, dry hair that’s free of tangles. If your hair tends to be on the unruly side, give it a good brush to ensure it’s smooth and ready for styling. Spritz on some leave-in conditioner, or use a detangling spray to make your mane more manageable.

STEP 2: Create a Half Up Ponytail

Create a half up ponytail by gathering upper section of hair and securing it tightly with an hair elastic. This will be the first step for creating a Cluster Braid Hairstyle

STEP 3: Divide and Braid

Then, divide it into two sections. Take one of the sections and start braiding it. Also, keep on adding a small section of hair from the side on which you are working. Here, we are starting with the right side.

STEP 4: Repeat on the other side

Now that we are done with one side, let’s move to the other one. Take the other section of your ponytail and divide it into two equal sections. Take one of the sections and start braiding just like you did with the other side.

STEP 5: Once again divide and braid

Now, take the other section and once again divide it into two equal sections. Take the upper section and make a three-strand braid out of it. Pin it with a hair clip to make your next step easier.

STEP 6: Final Braiding

Here comes the complex one that will become easy once you get hold of it. Take the lower section of hair and keep braiding it while adding on the remaining small sections of hair that you got from the first two side braids. Keep on braiding till you reach the bottom and are left with no remaining sections. Gently tease the braid for a more voluminous look.

STEP 7: Pin it up

Now, you are left with three beautiful braided sections of hair apart from the one you just created. Now, take all those previously made braids and secure it using bobby pins into the three sides of this bigger braid.

Step8: Finishing Touch For Your Cluster Braid Hairstyle

 Lastly, cover your hair tie by wrapping a small section of hair tie over it for a polished look and you are ready with your eye-catching Cluster Braid Hairstyle.
