Marsha Ambrosius’ look on the 2014 BET awards red carpet was a combination of sleek and edgy. Tiffany Daughterty is the celebrity hair stylist who created Marsha’s look. Check out Tiffany’s DIY beauty styling secrets to try this look on your own:

1. Shampoo and condition hair with Motions Straight Finish Cleanser and Leave-In Conditioner. Apply the Leave-In Conditioner and blow dry with a medium paddle brush and a Cricket Q-Zone Lightweight Dryer. Flat iron the hair to create more a sleek and smooth effect.

2. Part the hair in square sections in middle of the crown and begin to section hair off. The hair was braided using a fish tail technique.  I  sprayed the hair, braided a small amount, and continued to braid until end of hair was reached. The Motions Light Working Spritz gave the perfect amount of hold and control but allowed the hair to be pliable while braided down and over the right shoulder.

3. The previously clipped middle section of hair was released and I applied Motions Straight Finish Sealer before flat ironing the hair. With a medium flat iron, I straightened this section of hair, using a bevel technique.

 

4. To give the hair height and volume, I rounded the hair from the root while flat ironing it. Blend the  volumized hair into the fish tail braid, again using Motions Light Working Spritz for control.

5. A small amount of Motions Shine Enhancing Pomade was applied to the front left and right sides of the hair to control the edges and create sleekness around the frame. To finish the look, I sprayed Motions Hold & Shine Styling Spray for control and brilliant shine! The hair was set and will last all night!
