Do THIS Instead of Double Braids
If you struggle with braiding your hair or just want a similar look with a twist, this hair hack is for you.
Follow along with my step-by-step tutorial to learn how to make this double braid alternative.
Tools and materials:
- Clear hair elastics
1. Make 2 low ponytails
Start off by making 2 low, even ponytails. Secure each with a clear, hair elastic.
2. Turn them into topsy tails
Make an opening with your fingers above the elastic and pull the tail through it to make a topsy tail.
Repeat on the other side.
3. Repeat
Move a few inches below the first elastics and make 2 more topsy tails.
Do another row of topsy tails, maintaining a similar distance between the previous row.
If you have particularly long hair, continue to repeat the topsy tails until the remaining tail is too short for more.
That’s all there is to it!
Cute topsy tail braids
These topsy tail braids can be as laid-back and playful or as fine as you want them to be.
If you’re going for the more polished look, use a comb to achieve a straight part in the back.
I hope you loved this hair hack for an alternative to double braids.
