The Dutch Braid

Hey! 

So I figuered for my first hair tutorials, I'd show you the steps of 3 basic braids: the regular braid, the French braid (begins at the op of your head) and the Dutch braid (begins at the top of your head and looks 3d). These 3 braids are very handy to learn and are the basic steps you need to know to create more difficult braids! So pay attention haha ;). I'll be posting the 3 tutorials in seperate blogposts, this one will be the regular braid. x.

The Dutch braid

This braid is very similar to the French braid. The braid kind of looks like it's sticked to your head haha :). It is a bit more difficult but very pretty!

Step 1.

Take a section on top of your head and devide it in 3 strands. Now, instead of going with the outer strand over the middle one, you go under. Make one stitch.

Step 2.

Now just add in hair like with the French braid but keep on putting it under the other strands.

Step 3.

Keep on doing this until you reach the end. Finish with a regular braid and secure with an elastic :).

Now you have a beautiful braid! To make it even more beautiful, I personally like to "pancake" the braid. So it'll look like this

See my tutorial on Pancaking here! ;)

All the pictures are made by me with an iphone 5c, you can only use these pictures if you give the credits to me. This tutorial is done on Hilde's hair. Thanks guys :) xx
