Storm Reid's epic ponytail alone could have won an award for best red carpet look at this week's world premiere of "The Suicide Squad."

The 18-year-old actress wowed onlookers as she posed and twirled with a 16-foot beautiful braid.

She paired her magnificent mane with a custom two-piece ensemble by Prada that included a white crop top and maxi skirt.

"If anything... I'm everything," Reid captioned a post of her red carpet look.

"Creating powerful looks with a 'less is more' approach is a sweet spot for me," Nai'vasha said in a post.

Using all Tresemme products, she sectioned Reid's hair with extra firm control gel and brushed it into a super sleek ponytail.

Then she braided 16-feet of hair with just a little light gold gel.

To finish the look, Tresemme Tres Two Spray Freeze Hold hairspray was applied throughout.
