Help with french braiding my own hair!?

how do you french braid..especially my own hair...(2 french braids)



Help with french braiding my own hair!?

Can do 1 french braid down the middle? If you can, then 2 is the same way, except you do one on each side. Part your hair equally down the middle and secure 1 side in a ponytail. So basically half of your hair is in a ponytail, and the other half is loose. Now, french braid the loose hair like this:



This is the best way I can personally describe it (in my own words, not from a website)....



Grab your hair like you're putting it 1/2 up and then with your thumbs and index fingers divide the "half up" section into 3 equal parts.



Cross the left section over the center one, and then cross the right section over the new center one (which used to be on the left.)



Now grab a section of hair from the left side of your head, and add it to the left section of the braid, and cross that over the center part of the braid.



Then, you do the same thing on the right side - add a section of loose hair from the right side of your head to the right section of the braid and cross that over the center piece of the braid.



From that point just repeat that process until the braid goes down to the bottom of your head and you run out of hair.



Then you can continue braiding the tail into a regular braid and secure it.



Next, take down the other side of your secured hair and french braid it the same way!



It looks really tough at first by watching it, but once you practice you'll get the hang of it.



Hope my directions helped! Kind of difficult to explain without showing you. It gets easier after practicing a few times. If you have any questions let me know ~Amanda
