This Hairstyle is Easier Than French Braiding and Just as Cute
Try out this alternative hairstyle that’s easier than French braiding and super cute! Just follow along with this step-by-step tutorial.
Tools and materials:
- Comb with a pointed end
- Clear hair elastics
1. Make a zigzag part
Start off this hairstyle with a center, zigzag part, using the pointed end of a comb or teasing brush.
2. Make a small topsy tail
Next, grab a small section of hair from one side of the part and use a clear elastic to secure a ponytail.
Make a hole with your fingers above the elastic.
Then, flip the ends of the ponytail upward and into the hole to make the topsy tail.
3. Add hair and make more topsy tails
Grab more hair from underneath your first topsy tail, adding it to the ends.
Secure another clear hair elastic a few inches below that first topsy tail.
Then, make a hole above the second elastic and pull the ends through to make your second topsy tail.
Collect the rest of your hair with another clear hair elastic. Repeat the same steps to make 1-2 more topsy tails (depending on the thickness of your hair).
Then, pull gently at each section to add volume.
4. Repeat everything on the other side
Repeat the same process on the other side, making sure the distances between the topsy tails are fairly equal to those on the other side.
