step by step how to do a Dutch braid. 00:00:06.590 --> 00:00:08.264 I'm not going to speed anything up 00:00:08.331 --> 00:00:09.883 in this video because I'm 00:00:09.883 --> 00:00:11.326 going to explain every step 00:00:11.326 --> 00:00:13.320 I take from the top to the bottom 00:00:13.800 --> 00:00:15.554 So, yeah, its gonna be very long. 00:00:15.594 --> 00:00:17.384 So, if any of you guys have trouble 00:00:17.384 --> 00:00:18.583 doing a Dutch braid, 00:00:18.583 --> 00:00:20.518 you can follow along to this video 00:00:20.518 --> 00:00:21.480 step-by-step 00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:23.432 and im sure you guys are going to be 00:00:23.432 --> 00:00:24.816 master braiders in no time. 00:00:24.816 --> 00:00:25.889 So, the first thing 00:00:25.889 --> 00:00:27.355 you wanna do, is to brush all 00:00:27.355 --> 00:00:29.450 your hair to get rid of all the tangles. 00:00:39.216 --> 00:00:40.896 When you're done brushing your hair 00:00:40.896 --> 00:00:42.555 you're going to part your hair 00:00:42.555 --> 00:00:44.962 into two equal sections 00:00:44.962 --> 00:00:46.546 down the back of your head. 00:00:54.065 --> 00:00:54.912 Here we go. 00:00:54.912 --> 00:00:56.424 Now, just take a hairclip, 00:00:56.424 --> 00:00:58.481 something like this or an elastic. 00:00:58.481 --> 00:01:00.936 and just clip this hair out of the way. 00:01:02.262 --> 00:01:03.292 Or tie it up. 00:01:03.292 --> 00:01:05.103 Depends on what you're using. 00:01:08.906 --> 00:01:10.306 The first thing you wanna do, 00:01:10.306 --> 00:01:12.459 is to take a little triangle 00:01:12.459 --> 00:01:14.348 section at the front 00:01:15.351 --> 00:01:16.757 so, as you can see here, 00:01:16.757 --> 00:01:18.013 its a little trangle. 00:01:18.013 --> 00:01:20.391 You have it there, there, 00:01:20.391 --> 00:01:22.294 and then cross over. 00:01:23.412 --> 00:01:24.583 a little trangle. 00:01:24.635 --> 00:01:26.495 then you are going to take this section 00:01:26.495 --> 00:01:28.111 and split it into 3 sections. 00:01:28.250 --> 00:01:29.610 I've seen a lot of people 00:01:29.610 --> 00:01:31.219 pull the hair down this way 00:01:31.219 --> 00:01:32.475 and then split it, 00:01:32.764 --> 00:01:34.715 but you have to pull it in the direction 00:01:34.715 --> 00:01:36.120 you want the braid to go. 00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:37.890 So, in this case, we want the braid 00:01:37.890 --> 00:01:39.897 to go to the back of our head, so 00:01:39.897 --> 00:01:42.176 you wanna pull the hair in that direction. 00:01:42.176 --> 00:01:43.298 and then split it. 00:01:51.133 --> 00:01:52.046 Like that. 00:01:52.046 --> 00:01:53.950 So, this is the top section. 00:01:53.950 --> 00:01:55.667 This is the middle section. 00:01:55.667 --> 00:01:57.411 And this is the bottom section. 00:01:57.668 --> 00:01:59.808 So now we are going to start braiding 00:01:59.808 --> 00:02:02.243 and I prefer to start with the top strand 00:02:02.243 --> 00:02:04.022 but you can definitely start with 00:02:04.022 --> 00:02:05.502 the bottom strand as well. 00:02:05.502 --> 00:02:07.247 You just have to remember to start 00:02:07.247 --> 00:02:09.127 with the same strand on the other side. 00:02:09.127 --> 00:02:10.791 So, the first thing you have to do, 00:02:10.791 --> 00:02:12.932 is take the top strand, bring it under, 00:02:12.932 --> 00:02:14.416 and into the middle. 00:02:14.436 --> 00:02:16.230 So now this is the top strand, 00:02:16.230 --> 00:02:17.526 this is the middle strand, 00:02:17.526 --> 00:02:19.501 and that one is the bottom strand. 00:02:19.681 --> 00:02:21.488 Then you are gonna do the same thing 00:02:21.488 --> 00:02:23.757 to the bottom strand, so bring it under 00:02:23.757 --> 00:02:25.153 and into the middle. 00:02:25.153 --> 00:02:26.912 So now, this is the top strand, 00:02:26.912 --> 00:02:28.356 this is the middle strand, 00:02:28.356 --> 00:02:30.058 and this is the bottom strand. 00:02:30.484 --> 00:02:32.125 Now, you've started off the braid. 00:02:32.125 --> 00:02:33.806 So now you have to add in hair, 00:02:33.806 --> 00:02:36.169 and I know two ways to add in hair. 00:02:36.169 --> 00:02:38.309 So I'm gonna show you both ways. 00:02:38.309 --> 00:02:41.295 The first way, is to take the top strand 00:02:42.993 --> 00:02:45.689 grab some hair, from the same side, 00:02:46.260 --> 00:02:49.810 and then, take this section, 00:02:49.810 --> 00:02:51.806 and bring it under and into the middle. 00:02:53.152 --> 00:02:55.340 Again on the other side, you're gonna 00:02:55.340 --> 00:02:58.565 take the bottom strand, grab some hair, 00:02:59.167 --> 00:03:01.144 and add it to the bottom strand, 00:03:01.715 --> 00:03:03.938 and bring that under and into the middle. 00:03:04.498 --> 00:03:06.444 Again, take the top strand, 00:03:07.715 --> 00:03:09.735 grab some hair from the same side, 00:03:12.625 --> 00:03:14.152 and then cross this under 00:03:14.152 --> 00:03:15.368 and into the middle. 00:03:16.866 --> 00:03:19.131 Again, take the bottom strand, 00:03:20.043 --> 00:03:26.013 grab some hair, and then bring this under 00:03:26.013 --> 00:03:27.337 and into the middle. 00:03:28.771 --> 00:03:31.961 Then take the top strand, grab some hair, 00:03:35.727 --> 00:03:38.039 and bring that under and into the middle. 00:03:40.029 --> 00:03:41.935 Again, take the bottom strand, 00:03:42.857 --> 00:03:44.915 grab some hair from the same side 00:03:49.009 --> 00:03:51.174 and bring it under and into the middle. 00:03:52.091 --> 00:03:54.302 Again, take the top strand, 00:03:55.500 --> 00:03:58.114 grab some hair from the same side, 00:04:01.109 --> 00:04:03.377 and bring it under and into the middle. 00:04:04.659 --> 00:04:07.017 Again, take the bottom strand, 00:04:08.306 --> 00:04:10.036 grab some hair from the side, 00:04:13.059 --> 00:04:15.837 then bring it under and into the middle. 00:04:17.160 --> 00:04:18.802 Again, take the top strand, 00:04:20.011 --> 00:04:21.061 grab some hair, 00:04:24.129 --> 00:04:24.839 Oww. 00:04:25.296 --> 00:04:26.771 and then bring that under 00:04:26.771 --> 00:04:27.778 and into the middle. 00:04:28.776 --> 00:04:30.591 So, if you can't figure out how to 00:04:30.591 --> 00:04:31.849 add in hair this way, 00:04:31.849 --> 00:04:34.511 I'm gonna show you another technique. 00:04:34.511 --> 00:04:35.874 So, instead of adding hair, 00:04:35.874 --> 00:04:37.765 before wrapping it under and 00:04:37.765 --> 00:04:39.007 bringing it to the middle, 00:04:39.007 --> 00:04:40.914 you're going to add the hair afterwards. 00:04:40.917 --> 00:04:42.567 So take the bottom strand, 00:04:42.567 --> 00:04:44.684 wrap it under and into the middle, 00:04:45.826 --> 00:04:48.346 then hold all the strands into one hand, 00:04:49.994 --> 00:04:51.687 take some hair from the side, 00:04:51.687 --> 00:04:53.744 and add that to the middle strand. 00:04:55.118 --> 00:04:57.097 Again, take the top strand, 00:04:57.988 --> 00:05:00.017 bring it under, into the middle 00:05:00.983 --> 00:05:03.627 and then grab some hair from the side, 00:05:08.239 --> 00:05:09.929 and then bring that under 00:05:09.929 --> 00:05:10.899 and into the middle. 00:05:13.163 --> 00:05:15.147 Again, take the bottom strand under 00:05:15.147 --> 00:05:16.391 and into the middle, 00:05:18.808 --> 00:05:21.241 then take the section from the same side 00:05:23.052 --> 00:05:25.509 then bring that into the middle section. 00:05:26.404 --> 00:05:27.582 Tthe top strand, 00:05:28.239 --> 00:05:29.880 under and into the middle, 00:05:31.802 --> 00:05:33.523 grab a section of hair 00:05:37.045 --> 00:05:39.480 add that to the middle section. 00:05:41.782 --> 00:05:43.533 Again, take the bottom strand, 00:05:44.084 --> 00:05:45.637 under and into the middle, 00:05:46.230 --> 00:05:50.450 and then add some hair from the same side 00:05:53.289 --> 00:05:55.041 Again, take the top strand, 00:05:55.455 --> 00:05:56.941 under and into the middle, 00:05:59.134 --> 00:06:01.665 and then add some hair from the back. 00:06:08.455 --> 00:06:10.375 Then bring the bottom strand 00:06:10.375 --> 00:06:11.798 under and into the middle. 00:06:12.090 --> 00:06:13.638 and add some hair. 00:06:14.904 --> 00:06:17.107 So, now I've reached the back of my head, 00:06:17.107 --> 00:06:19.004 so i have no more hair to add in. 00:06:19.344 --> 00:06:21.274 So, now I'm just going to keep braiding 00:06:21.274 --> 00:06:22.756 the hair like a normal braid. 00:06:40.166 --> 00:06:41.526 When you are done braiding, 00:06:41.526 --> 00:06:43.000 then just take an elastic 00:06:43.000 --> 00:06:44.221 and secure the braid. 00:06:50.652 --> 00:06:53.162 And that is how you do a Dutch braid. 00:06:53.162 --> 00:06:55.527 So, now we are going to do the other side. 00:06:55.527 --> 00:06:57.103 So, just take the clip out. 00:06:57.642 --> 00:06:59.025 And then just make sure 00:06:59.025 --> 00:07:00.884 that there are no tangles. 00:07:04.741 --> 00:07:06.175 Now im going to show you 00:07:06.175 --> 00:07:08.125 the exact same thing I did on this side, 00:07:08.345 --> 00:07:09.665 but just on this side, 00:07:09.750 --> 00:07:11.362 so you have two braids. 00:07:11.884 --> 00:07:15.012 So take a small triangle shape, 00:07:16.971 --> 00:07:17.754 like that. 00:07:18.405 --> 00:07:21.703 and then split this into three sections. 00:07:25.027 --> 00:07:27.457 So, because I started with the top strand 00:07:27.457 --> 00:07:29.628 on the other side, I'm also going to start 00:07:29.628 --> 00:07:31.452 with the top strand on this side. 00:07:31.956 --> 00:07:33.136 So take the top strand, 00:07:33.136 --> 00:07:34.639 under and into the middle. 00:07:34.849 --> 00:07:36.753 And then take the bottom strand, 00:07:36.753 --> 00:07:38.444 under and into the middle. 00:07:38.444 --> 00:07:40.630 So now you have to start adding in hair. 00:07:41.132 --> 00:07:42.642 So take the top strand, 00:07:43.728 --> 00:07:44.793 grab some hair, 00:07:47.820 --> 00:07:49.946 and bring it under and into the middle. 00:07:51.145 --> 00:07:53.056 Then take the bottom strand, 00:07:54.165 --> 00:07:56.130 grab some hair from the same side, 00:07:59.547 --> 00:08:01.762 and bring that under and into the middle. 00:08:02.988 --> 00:08:05.202 Again, take the top strand, 00:08:06.311 --> 00:08:08.518 grab some hair from the same side, 00:08:13.928 --> 00:08:16.318 then bring that under and into the middle. 00:08:18.307 --> 00:08:20.460 Again, take the bottom strand, 00:08:21.837 --> 00:08:22.902 grab some hair, 00:08:28.402 --> 00:08:30.744 then bring this under and into the middle. 00:08:33.014 --> 00:08:36.874 Again, take the top strand, grab some hair 00:08:43.576 --> 00:08:45.156 and then bring this under 00:08:45.156 --> 00:08:46.457 and into the middle. 00:08:48.636 --> 00:08:50.436 Then take the bottom strand, 00:08:51.924 --> 00:08:53.179 grab some hair, 00:08:57.058 --> 00:08:59.477 bring that under and into the middle. 00:09:03.141 --> 00:09:07.391 Again, take the top strand, grab some hair 00:09:11.085 --> 00:09:13.279 bring this under and into the middle. 00:09:16.473 --> 00:09:18.552 Again, take the bottom strand, 00:09:20.886 --> 00:09:22.230 grab some hair, 00:09:23.402 --> 00:09:25.822 then bring it under and into the middle. 00:09:29.208 --> 00:09:33.278 Again, take the top strand, grab some hair 00:09:33.278 --> 00:09:34.667 from the back, 00:09:38.564 --> 00:09:39.754 and then bring that under 00:09:39.754 --> 00:09:41.083 and into the middle. 00:09:43.547 --> 00:09:44.257 Oww. 00:09:47.948 --> 00:09:49.619 So that was the first technique. 00:09:49.619 --> 00:09:50.875 Now I'm going to show you 00:09:50.875 --> 00:09:51.901 the other technique. 00:09:52.283 --> 00:09:53.591 So take the bottom strand, 00:09:53.591 --> 00:09:55.584 bring it under and into the middle, 00:09:56.097 --> 00:09:58.665 then bring all the strands into one hand, 00:09:59.828 --> 00:10:01.847 grab a new section of hair, 00:10:03.427 --> 00:10:05.897 and then add that to the middle strand. 00:10:07.363 --> 00:10:09.212 Again, take the top strand, 00:10:09.626 --> 00:10:11.162 under and into the middle, 00:10:11.817 --> 00:10:14.187 bring all strands into one hand. 00:10:14.953 --> 00:10:18.422 Then add some hair from the same side, 00:10:21.195 --> 00:10:22.755 to the middle strand. 00:10:25.334 --> 00:10:26.958 Again, take the bottom strand, 00:10:27.475 --> 00:10:29.154 cross it under and into the middle, 00:10:30.853 --> 00:10:33.157 grab some hair from the same side, 00:10:35.013 --> 00:10:37.420 then bring that under and into the middle. 00:10:40.117 --> 00:10:41.678 Then take the top strand, 00:10:41.678 --> 00:10:45.840 under and into the middle, grab some hair 00:10:47.281 --> 00:10:49.564 and add it to the middle section. 00:10:50.724 --> 00:10:52.201 Then take the bottom strand, 00:10:52.400 --> 00:10:53.907 under and into the middle, 00:10:55.352 --> 00:10:58.902 add some hair to the middle strand. 00:11:01.067 --> 00:11:02.679 Then take the top strand, 00:11:02.679 --> 00:11:03.982 under and into the middle, 00:11:05.180 --> 00:11:06.778 and then add some hair,. 00:11:07.388 --> 00:11:09.334 Now that there's no more hair to add in, 00:11:09.408 --> 00:11:11.075 I'm just going to braid the hair 00:11:11.089 --> 00:11:12.559 like a normal braid. 00:11:29.995 --> 00:11:33.335 Then take an elastic and secure your braid 00:11:36.392 --> 00:11:38.246 So, now that you're done braiding, 00:11:38.246 --> 00:11:40.320 you can start to loosen up the braid 00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:42.491 by pulling on the sides of the braid 00:11:42.507 --> 00:11:43.512 to make it really big 00:11:43.512
