step one:

  • Draw a center parting
  • Brush the hair with the comb and create a center parting down to the base of the neck.

step two:

  • Attach one side
  • Tie one side with a rubber band.
  • Tie one side with a rubber band.

step three:

  • Take a triangle section and divide into 3
  • Starting at the top of the opposite side, take a triangular section and divide it into three smaller strands.

 

TIP: To create a French braid (snugly on the head), braid over the top rather than under

step four:

  • Pass the inner strand over the center strand
  • Take the inner strand and pass it over the center strand.

step five:

  • Pass the outer strand over the center strand
  • Then, take the outer strand and pass it over the central strand.

step six:

  • Take an extra strand for the second pass
  • On the second pass, start adding a section of hair and go over it. Be sure to work with precision when adding the extra strands.

step seven:

  • Repeat steps 4, 5 and 6
  • Continue with this technique, regularly adding extra strands to the outer and inner strands, and always passing them over the sections.

step eight:

  • Braid to the ends and secure with a rubber band
  • Once you reach the base of the neck and you have no more hair to braid, continue the braid as a simple three-strand braid then secure with a clear elastic.

step nine:

  • Repeat this technique for the braid on the opposite side
  • Do the same for the braid on the opposite side.

step ten:

  • Relax the strands close to the face
  • Loosen the strands around the face and above the ears for added softness.

step eleven:

  • Spray a veil of hairspray
  • To finalize your double French braid, spray a veil of hairspray on the hair.
