Here’s a quick and easy style that adds something special to a braid. Instead of one simple braid, make two and let them swing together.


Add butterfly clips, bows or anything else you have handy.


This is a great style for long, slightly wavy hair.

Best bow claw clips!

Hope on this trend with these pretty bow claw clips that Amazon reviewers swear by!


Tools and materials:

  • 2 hair ties
  • 2 butterfly clips or bows
Sectioning hair

1. Section your hair

Smooth all your hair back behind your shoulders.

Sectioning hair

Use your fingers to separate it into three sections, one in the center and one either side.

2. Make the first braid

Take the center section first, and separate it into three strands.


Starting low at the back of your head, braid the section as normal


Add a hair tie to hold it in position.

Braiding

3. Make another braid

Pick up both the side sections and hold them together above the braided hair.


Divide the free hair into three strands.


Make a second braid with these strands. 


Start from above the first braid so that the new braid sits on top of it..


Keep the two braids separate. They should be about the same thickness.


Fasten the second one with a hair tie.

Bow clip

4. Decorate

Clip your decorations to the end of each braid. 


I used butterfly clips, but clip-on bows would also look pretty.

The finished look is very feminine. I love the way the two butterflies move together.


You could also add ribbons to the braids as you make them and tie them off at the ends.
