4 Easy & Unique Ways to Wear a Baseball Cap With Braids

In this tutorial, we're going to be doing some hat hairstyles. I'm going to show you how to wear a baseball cap with braids. We'll cover four different styles of easy side braids.
These hairstyles are particularly good for those with long and thick hair. Let’s start braiding!
Tools and materials:
- Brush
- Hair elastic
- Baseball cap or hat
- Mirror
Side braid style 1
Put your ponytail to the side, then section a small side strand.
Wrap it underneath your ponytail and bring it all the way around. Now, you’ve created a cute loop.
Then, pull the end of the strand through the loop. Pull the loop, so it sits tight.
Add in a little more hair to the same strand and repeat the process.
Continue doing this side braid style all the way till the end. Once you get the hand of this, it should be quick to do!
Tip: Make sure your one hand is holding onto that strand the whole time.
There you go! I think this braid is super cute and easy to do. You can see I messed up a little at the bottom, but it's fine.
Style braid style 2
Tie your hair into a low side pony and bring it to the side. Then, right in the middle of that ponytail, do a regular 3-strand braid.
Then, divide the rest of your hair into three equal sections. Make sure the small braid is next to the outside section.
Take the inside section, cross it under the section it’s next to, and then over that braided section.
Now, you’re going to do the opposite. Take the outside section from the other side, cross it over the section it's next to, and then under the braid.
In this case, you’d take the inside section, cross it over the section next to it, and under the braid. Now, repeat. Remember to alternate sides.
So, remember the pattern;
- Inside section = under + over
- Outside section = over + under.
Repeat this and tie your ends when done.
Next, fluff out the braid by pinching and pulling the sides.
You have a very intricate and beautiful side braid. I actually got compliments on this one when I went out.
Side braid style 3
For the next style braid hairstyle, divide your hair into three sections, with the middle section smaller than the outer sections.
Then, do a regular 3-strand braid for the outside sections. Tie both braids with a hairband.
Now the next step is basically using the middle strand to weave the two braids together.
So, open up a braid and pull that middle strand through the top braided section. Then, pull it through the top braided section on the opposite braid. See how it weaves them together?
Keep doing this all the way down the braids and it will look like one 6-strand braid. Pretty cool, huh?
Once you’re finished, tie it off and pancake the edges. Side braid style 4
Look at this bad boy side braid! I’m obsessed, and I think it’s adorable.
Side braid style 4
If there’s one thing you take away from this braids with baseball cap tutorial is how to do a rope braid! For this style, simply divide your hair in half.
Take each section, twist it around your finger and away from your face.
Next, take the outside section and cross it over the inside section.
Then, twist the sections again (awaye from your face).
Cross the outside section of the inside section and twist both sections again. The hardest part was figuring out how to twist it away from my face, but I quickly got the hang of it.
Repeat and twist all the way down. Easy!
Tie your twisted side braid and pull out your hair for a messier look.
I love rope braids! They are so unique and look great with a hat.
