Easy french braid tutorial!

Hey Everyone! Today I will be showing a quick hairstyle. All you need to know is how to braid.
First part your hair whatever way you want it. I parted it to the side, but the middle works too. The section off the hair at the crown.
Next french braid each section down to the side. I used a normal french braid, but a dutch french braid works as well.
After, secure both braids at the bottom of your head with an elastic band.
Finally let your hair down to cover the elastic. You have a cute style that works great for school!

Hope you enjoyed it!

Criss Cross Braids!


Today I will show you how to do crisscross french braids as shown above. Please excuse the cornrows "the doll" refuses to take them out. You can do this style the same way without them.
First Part the hair down the middle.
Next separate half the hair in two again with the part ending at the ear as shown below.
Secure the top section in a temporary bun, then part the other side.
Now put the bottom section in a temporary bun.
Next take the top section and start french braid normally.
When you run out of hair braid normally for a few inches until you reach the other side of the head. As shown below.
Next take a piece of hair next to the ear and start french braiding again.
French braid that section normally and finish the braid normally.

Next take out the buns. Then start french braiding the top section like before. when you run out of hair, do the same thing as before, braid a few pieces and cross it to the other side.
Then take a section of hair by the ear and add it to the braid then french braid and finish normally.
I finished the style with little poofs on the ends but you could tie them normally too. When your all done, you have a cute style that a lot of people will notice, and all you did was french braid.

French braid from cornrows!

This hairstyle was made with cornrows from the Bahamas, but i will do a post about how to o cornrows at home when she takes hers off. So in this style I am only using the hair coming out of the cornrows.
So start with the middle pieces and just start braiding like a french braid. But then when you add the next piece of hair for the french braid take from the next cornrow, as shown below.
Now just keep braiding own taking the hair from each cornrow.
When you run out of hair from the cornrows just simply braid the rest like normal.

Then you have cute cornrows in the front with a cute french braid in the back!
