A lot of times, we associate updos with more formal events but I am a huge fan of updos for a casual night out, especially as the weather starts to get warmer. With festival season upon on, twists and braids are everything right now. I am loving this updo by Ashley Stone, owner of  Beauty Entourage, which I paired with my favorite Nasty Gal headpiece.  I did give this type of updo a stab on my own and was happy with the results.  Of course it doesn’t compare to Beauty Entourage but for a quick updo, the braided crown is easy to master.  You can check out the tutorial here.
