Do THIS the Next Time You Double Braid Your Hair
If pigtail braids are for young girls, do this classier double braid version the next time you need a fresh hairstyle!
It would be perfect for a casual day. Let's get into it.
Tools and materials:
- Claw clip
- Tail comb
- 1 hair tie
- 2 clear, hair elastics
1. Separate the bottom section and split it
Clip up the top half of your hair temporarily with a claw clip. Then split the bottom section down the middle at your neck, pulling each section to the front, on either side.
2. Split the top section and cross
Remove the claw clip. Half the top section of hair and cross them at the back of your head.
Cross the bottom section over the top section and hold this “knot” tightly.
3. Add top sections to bottom sections and braid
Be sure to hold on tightly to the crossed top section.
On 1 side, add the split hair from the bottom section with the tail of the nearby top section. Secure a ponytail at the base of your neck.
On the other side, braid the top and bottom sections together into a uniform braid. Secure the end with a clear, hair elastic.
Then remove the hair tie from the other side and make another braid with the remaining hair, securing the end with another elastic.
