Turns out you don’t have to be a hippy or headed to San Francisco, to wear flowers in your hair. This spring’s hottest hair trend might just be this intricate braided hairstyle, arranged in such a way that it resembles a rose and it’s taking Instagram by storm.

This hair trend was conceived by Alison Valsamis, a hairstylist based in Fairfield, Connecticut, the ultimate spring-themed hairstyle may look way too complex and difficult to achieve at home. However, luckily for us, Alison has explained how this braid style is done in an interview with Allure.

“To create these roses, I start with a small 3-strand braid rolled up to serve as the centermost part,” she told the fashion and beauty site. “Next, I alternate between standard fishtails and Dutch fishtails pulled apart to create depth. I finish with a Dutch 3-strand braid only pulled out on the outermost side to create the large petal feel of a rose in bloom.”

Sounds simple enough, doesn’t it?!
