to explain every step 8 00:00:11,326 --> 00:00:13,320 I take from the top to the bottom 9 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:15,554 So, yeah, its gonna be very long. 10 00:00:15,594 --> 00:00:17,384 So, if any of you guys have trouble 11 00:00:17,384 --> 00:00:18,583 doing a Dutch braid, 12 00:00:18,583 --> 00:00:20,518 you can follow along to this video 13 00:00:20,518 --> 00:00:21,480 step-by-step 14 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:23,432 and im sure you guys are going to be 15 00:00:23,432 --> 00:00:24,816 master braiders in no time. 16 00:00:24,816 --> 00:00:25,889 So, the first thing 17 00:00:25,889 --> 00:00:27,355 you wanna do, is to brush all 18 00:00:27,355 --> 00:00:29,450 your hair to get rid of all the tangles. 19 00:00:39,216 --> 00:00:40,896 When you're done brushing your hair 20 00:00:40,896 --> 00:00:42,555 you're going to part your hair 21 00:00:42,555 --> 00:00:44,962 into two equal sections 22 00:00:44,962 --> 00:00:46,546 down the back of your head. 23 00:00:54,065 --> 00:00:54,912 Here we go. 24 00:00:54,912 --> 00:00:56,424 Now, just take a hairclip, 25 00:00:56,424 --> 00:00:58,481 something like this or an elastic. 26 00:00:58,481 --> 00:01:00,936 and just clip this hair out of the way. 27 00:01:02,262 --> 00:01:03,292 Or tie it up. 28 00:01:03,292 --> 00:01:05,103 Depends on what you're using. 29 00:01:08,906 --> 00:01:10,306 The first thing you wanna do, 30 00:01:10,306 --> 00:01:12,459 is to take a little triangle 31 00:01:12,459 --> 00:01:14,348 section at the front 32 00:01:15,351 --> 00:01:16,757 so, as you can see here, 33 00:01:16,757 --> 00:01:18,013 its a little trangle. 34 00:01:18,013 --> 00:01:20,391 You have it there, there, 35 00:01:20,391 --> 00:01:22,294 and then cross over. 36 00:01:23,412 --> 00:01:24,583 a little trangle. 37 00:01:24,635 --> 00:01:26,495 then you are going to take this section 38 00:01:26,495 --> 00:01:28,111 and split it into 3 sections. 39 00:01:28,250 --> 00:01:29,610 I've seen a lot of people 40 00:01:29,610 --> 00:01:31,219 pull the hair down this way 41 00:01:31,219 --> 00:01:32,475 and then split it, 42 00:01:32,764 --> 00:01:34,715 but you have to pull it in the direction 43 00:01:34,715 --> 00:01:36,120 you want the braid to go. 44 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:37,890 So, in this case, we want the braid 45 00:01:37,890 --> 00:01:39,897 to go to the back of our head, so 46 00:01:39,897 --> 00:01:42,176 you wanna pull the hair in that direction. 47 00:01:42,176 --> 00:01:43,298 and then split it. 48 00:01:51,133 --> 00:01:52,046 Like that. 49 00:01:52,046 --> 00:01:53,950 So, this is the top section. 50 00:01:53,950 --> 00:01:55,667 This is the middle section. 51 00:01:55,667 --> 00:01:57,411 And this is the bottom section. 52 00:01:57,668 --> 00:01:59,808 So now we are going to start braiding 53 00:01:59,808 --> 00:02:02,243 and I prefer to start with the top strand 54 00:02:02,243 --> 00:02:04,022 but you can definitely start with 55 00:02:04,022 --> 00:02:05,502 the bottom strand as well. 56 00:02:05,502 --> 00:02:07,247 You just have to remember to start 57 00:02:07,247 --> 00:02:09,127 with the same strand on the other side. 58 00:02:09,127 --> 00:02:10,791 So, the first thing you have to do, 59 00:02:10,791 --> 00:02:12,932 is take the top strand, bring it under, 60 00:02:12,932 --> 00:02:14,416 and into the middle. 61 00:02:14,436 --> 00:02:16,230 So now this is the top strand, 62 00:02:16,230 --> 00:02:17,526 this is the middle strand, 63 00:02:17,526 --> 00:02:19,501 and that one is the bottom strand. 64 00:02:19,681 --> 00:02:21,488 Then you are gonna do the same thing 65 00:02:21,488 --> 00:02:23,757 to the bottom strand, so bring it under 66 00:02:23,757 --> 00:02:25,153 and into the middle. 67 00:02:25,153 --> 00:02:26,912 So now, this is the top strand, 68 00:02:26,912 --> 00:02:28,356 this is the middle strand, 69 00:02:28,356 --> 00:02:30,058 and this is the bottom strand. 70 00:02:30,484 --> 00:02:32,125 Now, you've started off the braid. 71 00:02:32,125 --> 00:02:33,806 So now you have to add in hair, 72 00:02:33,806 --> 00:02:36,169 and I know two ways to add in hair. 73 00:02:36,169 --> 00:02:38,309 So I'm gonna show you both ways. 74 00:02:38,309 --> 00:02:41,295 The first way, is to take the top strand 75 00:02:42,993 --> 00:02:45,689 grab some hair, from the same side, 76 00:02:46,260 --> 00:02:49,810 and then, take this section, 77 00:02:49,810 --> 00:02:51,806 and bring it under and into the middle. 78 00:02:53,152 --> 00:02:55,340 Again on the other side, you're gonna 79 00:02:55,340 --> 00:02:58,565 take the bottom strand, grab some hair, 80 00:02:59,167 --> 00:03:01,144 and add it to the bottom strand, 81 00:03:01,715 --> 00:03:03,938 and bring that under and into the middle. 82 00:03:04,498 --> 00:03:06,444 Again, take the top strand, 83 00:03:07,715 --> 00:03:09,735 grab some hair from the same side, 84 00:03:12,625 --> 00:03:14,152 and then cross this under 85 00:03:14,152 --> 00:03:15,368 and into the middle. 86 00:03:16,866 --> 00:03:19,131 Again, take the bottom strand, 87 00:03:20,043 --> 00:03:26,013 grab some hair, and then bring this under 88 00:03:26,013 --> 00:03:27,337 and into the middle. 89 00:03:28,771 --> 00:03:31,961 Then take the top strand, grab some hair, 90 00:03:35,727 --> 00:03:38,039 and bring that under and into the middle. 91 00:03:40,029 --> 00:03:41,935 Again, take the bottom strand, 92 00:03:42,857 --> 00:03:44,915 grab some hair from the same side 93 00:03:49,009 --> 00:03:51,174 and bring it under and into the middle. 94 00:03:52,091 --> 00:03:54,302 Again, take the top strand, 95 00:03:55,500 --> 00:03:58,114 grab some hair from the same side, 96 00:04:01,109 --> 00:04:03,377 and bring it under and into the middle. 97 00:04:04,659 --> 00:04:07,017 Again, take the bottom strand, 98 00:04:08,306 --> 00:04:10,036 grab some hair from the side, 99 00:04:13,059 --> 00:04:15,837 then bring it under and into the middle. 100 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:18,802 Again, take the top strand, 101 00:04:20,011 --> 00:04:21,061 grab some hair, 102 00:04:24,129 --> 00:04:24,839 Oww. 103 00:04:25,296 --> 00:04:26,771 and then bring that under 104 00:04:26,771 --> 00:04:27,778 and into the middle. 105 00:04:28,776 --> 00:04:30,591 So, if you can't figure out how to 106 00:04:30,591 --> 00:04:31,849 add in hair this way, 107 00:04:31,849 --> 00:04:34,511 I'm gonna show you another technique. 108 00:04:34,511 --> 00:04:35,874 So, instead of adding hair, 109 00:04:35,874 --> 00:04:37,765 before wrapping it under and 110 00:04:37,765 --> 00:04:39,007 bringing it to the middle, 111 00:04:39,007 --> 00:04:40,914 you're going to add the hair afterwards. 112 00:04:40,917 --> 00:04:42,567 So take the bottom strand, 113 00:04:42,567 --> 00:04:44,684 wrap it under and into the middle, 114 00:04:45,826 --> 00:04:48,346 then hold all the strands into one hand, 115 00:04:49,994 --> 00:04:51,687 take some hair from the side, 116 00:04:51,687 --> 00:04:53,744 and add that to the middle strand. 117 00:04:55,118 --> 00:04:57,097 Again, take the top strand, 118 00:04:57,988 --> 00:05:00,017 bring it under, into the middle 119 00:05:00,983 --> 00:05:03,627 and then grab some hair from the side, 120 00:05:08,239 --> 00:05:09,929 and then bring that under 121 00:05:09,929 --> 00:05:10,899 and into the middle. 122 00:05:13,163 --> 00:05:15,147 Again, take the bottom strand under 123 00:05:15,147 --> 00:05:16,391 and into the middle, 124 00:05:18,808 --> 00:05:21,241 then take the section from the same side 125 00:05:23,052 --> 00:05:25,509 then bring that into the middle section. 126 00:05:26,404 --> 00:05:27,582 Tthe top strand, 127 00:05:28,239 --> 00:05:29,880 under and into the middle, 128 00:05:31,802 --> 00:05:33,523 grab a section of hair 129 00:05:37,045 --> 00:05:39,480 add that to the middle section. 130 00:05:41,782 --> 00:05:43,533 Again, take the bottom strand, 131 00:05:44,084 --> 00:05:45,637 under and into the middle, 132 00:05:46,230 --> 00:05:50,450 and then add some hair from the same side 133 00:05:53,289 --> 00:05:55,041 Again, take the top strand, 134 00:05:55,455 --> 00:05:56,941 under and into the middle, 135 00:05:59,134 --> 00:06:01,665 and then add some hair from the back. 136 00:06:08,455 --> 00:06:10,375 Then bring the bottom strand 137 00:06:10,375 --> 00:06:11,798 under and into the middle. 138 00:06:12,090 --> 00:06:13,638 and add some hair. 139 00:06:14,904 --> 00:06:17,107 So, now I've reached the back of my head, 140 00:06:17,107 --> 00:06:19,004 so i have no more hair to add in. 141 00:06:19,344 --> 00:06:21,274 So, now I'm just going to keep braiding 142 00:06:21,274 --> 00:06:22,756 the hair like a normal braid. 143 00:06:40,166 --> 00:06:41,526 When you are done braiding, 144 00:06:41,526 --> 00:06:43,000 then just take an elastic 145 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,221 and secure the braid. 146 00:06:50,652 --> 00:06:53,162 And that is how you do a Dutch braid. 147 00:06:53,162 --> 00:06:55,527 So, now we are going to do the other side. 148 00:06:55,527 --> 00:06:57,103 So, just take the clip out. 149 00:06:57,642 --> 00:06:59,025 And then just make sure 150 00:06:59,025 --> 00:07:00,884 that there are no tangles. 151 00:07:04,741 --> 00:07:06,175 Now im going to show you 152 00:07:06,175 --> 00:07:08,125 the exact same thing I did on this side, 153 00:07:08,345 --> 00:07:09,665 but just on this side, 154 00:07:09,750 --> 00:07:11,362 so you have two braids. 155 00:07:11,884 --> 00:07:15,012 So take a small triangle shape, 156 00:07:16,971 --> 00:07:17,754 like that. 157 00:07:18,405 --> 00:07:21,703 and then split this into three sections. 158 00:07:25,027 --> 00:07:27,457 So, because I started with the top strand 159 00:07:27,457 --> 00:07:29,628 on the other side, I'm also going to start 160 00:07:29,628 --> 00:07:31,452 with the top strand on this side. 161 00:07:31,956 --> 00:07:33,136 So take the top strand, 162 00:07:33,136 --> 00:07:34,639 under and into the middle. 163 00:07:34,849 --> 00:07:36,753 And then take the bottom strand, 164 00:07:36,753 --> 00:07:38,444 under and into the middle. 165 00:07:38,444 --> 00:07:40,630 So now you have to start adding in hair. 166 00:07:41,132 --> 00:07:42,642 So take the top strand, 167 00:07:43,728 --> 00:07:44,793 grab some hair, 168 00:07:47,820 --> 00:07:49,946 and bring it under and into the middle. 169 00:07:51,145 --> 00:07:53,056 Then take the bottom strand, 170 00:07:54,165 --> 00:07:56,130 grab some hair from the same side, 171 00:07:59,547 --> 00:08:01,762 and bring that under and into the middle. 172 00:08:02,988 --> 00:08:05,202 Again, take the top strand, 173 00:08:06,311 --> 00:08:08,518 grab some hair from the same side, 174 00:08:13,928 --> 00:08:16,318 then bring that under and into the middle. 175 00:08:18,307 --> 00:08:20,460 Again, take the bottom strand, 176 00:08:21,837 --> 00:08:22,902 grab some hair, 177 00:08:28,402 --> 00:08:30,744 then bring this under and into the middle. 178 00:08:33,014 --> 00:08:36,874 Again, take the top strand, grab some hair 179 00:08:43,576 --> 00:08:45,156 and then bring this under 180 00:08:45,156 --> 00:08:46,457 and into the middle. 181 00:08:48,636 --> 00:08:50,436 Then take the bottom strand, 182 00:08:51,924 --> 00:08:53,179 grab some hair, 183 00:08:57,058 --> 00:08:59,477 bring that under and into the middle. 184 00:09:03,141 --> 00:09:07,391 Again, take the top strand, grab some hair 185 00:09:11,085 --> 00:09:13,279 bring this under and into the middle. 186 00:09:16,473 --> 00:09:18,552 Again, take the bottom strand, 187 00:09:20,886 --> 00:09:22,230 grab some hair, 188 00:09:23,402 --> 00:09:25,822 then bring it under and into the middle. 189 00:09:29,208 --> 00:09:33,278 Again, take the top strand, grab some hair 190 00:09:33,278 --> 00:09:34,667 from the back, 191 00:09:38,564 --> 00:09:39,754 and then bring that under 192 00:09:39,754 --> 00:09:41,083 and into the middle. 193 00:09:43,547 --> 00:09:44,257 Oww. 194 00:09:47,948 --> 00:09:49,619 So that was the first technique. 195 00:09:49,619 --> 00:09:50,875 Now I'm going to show you 196 00:09:50,875 --> 00:09:51,901 the other technique. 197 00:09:52,283 --> 00:09:53,591 So take the bottom strand, 198 00:09:53,591 --> 00:09:55,584 bring it under and into the middle, 199 00:09:56,097 --> 00:09:58,665 then bring all the strands into one hand, 200 00:09:59,828 --> 00:10:01,847 grab a new section of hair, 201 00:10:03,427 --> 00:10:05,897 and then add that to the middle strand. 202 00:10:07,363 --> 00:10:09,212 Again, take the top strand, 203 00:10:09,626 --> 00:10:11,162 under and into the middle, 204 00:10:11,817 --> 00:10:14,187 bring all strands into one hand. 205 00:10:14,953 --> 00:10:18,422 Then add some hair from the same side, 206 00:10:21,195 --> 00:10:22,755 to the middle strand. 207 00:10:25,334 --> 00:10:26,958 Again, take the bottom strand, 208 00:10:27,475 --> 00:10:29,154 cross it under and into the middle, 209 00:10:30,853 --> 00:10:33,157 grab some hair from the same side, 210 00:10:35,013 --> 00:10:37,420 then bring that under and into the middle. 211 00:10:40,117 --> 00:10:41,678 Then take the top strand, 212 00:10:41,678 --> 00:10:45,840 under and into the middle, grab some hair 213 00:10:47,281 --> 00:10:49,564 and add it to the middle section. 214 00:10:50,724 --> 00:10:52,201 Then take the bottom strand, 215 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:53,907 under and into the middle, 216 00:10:55,352 --> 00:10:58,902 add some hair to the middle strand. 217 00:11:01,067 --> 00:11:02,679 Then take the top strand, 218 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:03,982 under and into the middle, 219 00:11:05,180 --> 00:11:06,778 and then add some hair,. 220 00:11:07,388 --> 00:11:09,334 Now that there's no more hair to add in, 221 00:11:09,408 --> 00:11:11,075 I'm just going to braid the hair 222 00:11:11,089 --> 00:11:12,559 like a normal braid. 223 00:11:29,995 --> 00:11:33,335 Then take an elastic and secure your braid 224 00:11:36,392 --> 00:11:38,246 So, now that you're done braiding, 225 00:11:38,246 --> 00:11:40,320 you can start to loosen up the braid 226 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,491 by pulling on the sides of the braid 227 00:11:42,507 --> 00:11:43,512 to make it really big 228 00:11:43,512 --> 00:11:44,746 and really voluminous. 229 00:11:45,077 --> 00:11:46,807 You can also just leave it like this 230 00:11:46,807 --> 00:11:48,669 if this is the look you're going for. 231 00:11:48,891 --> 00:11:51,176 So, this is how you Dutch braid your hair, 232 00:11:51,402 --> 00:11:53,558 and I really hope I explained it well 233 00:11:53,558 --> 00:11:55,699 because I really
