Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Hair mousse
  • 2 Elastic bands
  • Wide-toothed comb

    After showering, brush your hair and then use a wide-toothed comb to part it down the middle of your head from the forehead all the way to the nape of your neck.

  2. Step 2

    Seperate your hair into two sections (one on the left, one on the right).

  3. Step 3

    Frenchbraid each section of your hair starting at the top of your head all the way to the ends of your hair. Secure each braid with an elastic band.
