Step-by-step Tutorial:
- There are many ways to style this braid. Here, I have used a single frenchback into a high ponytail, but you can use it in any variety of hairstyle combos.
- Begin by pulling the hair into a high ponytail, and secure it with a hair band…Now divide hair into 4 equal sections, laying each section between one of your fingers on your right hand….
- The hair should lay like this: Strand #1 {outside pinky finger}, Strand #2 {between pinky and ring finger}, Strand #3 {between ring finger and middle finger}, strand #4 {between middle and index finger}…
- Now, take the index finger on your left hand and use it to hook Strand #3. It should now lay between your pointer finger and your middle finger.
- Take your middle finger and hook Strand #1. This will now lay between your middle and ring finger…
- Take the last two pieces and twist them once {so they cross over each other} and place them so Strand #4 lays between your ring finger and pinky and Strand #2 lays outside your pinky…
- All strands should now be sitting in your left hand and will be numbered 1-4 from left to right…
- Take your right index finger and hook Strand #2. This will now lay between your index and middle finger…
- Next, take your middle finger and hook Strand #4. This will now lay between your middle and ring finger…
- With the last two remaining strands, do a half twist so they cross, and then place them so Strand #1 now lays between your rink finger and pinky, with Strand #3 laying outside your pinky…
- Repeat Steps #4-10 until you run out of hair…
- Secure with an elastic and add accessories as desired.
