hey guys welcome back to my Channel
today I'm going to show you how to do a
French braid step-by-step and I recently
uploaded a how to Dutch braid step by
step video and you guys really seem to
like that video so I thought I would do
one for a French braid as well so I'm
going to explain every step from the top
of the braid to the bottom of the braid
so if you're not that good at braiding
or French braiding then I'm sure you
will be a master baiter after this video
so the first thing you want to do is to
brush all your hair so there's no
tangles and that way it's a lot easier
to braid your hair when you have brushed
your hair you're going to split your
hair into two sections down the back of
your head
here we go then take one section and
clip that away with a hair clip or use a
hair tie and then tie it up now you want
to take a small section of hair in the
front that kind of looks like a triangle
like this and what I mean by a triangle
is that you have the pointy side here
and then it goes across here so like a
little triangle and now I want to sort
this section into three equal sections
but you don't want to split it this way
now you want to take the hair and pull
it in the direction you want the braid
to go so I wanted to go to the back of
my head so I'm pulling the hair in that
direction and then splitting it into
three sections
so now you have a tough strand a middle
strand and a bottom strand I like to
start with the top strand but you can
definitely start with the bottom strand
as well you just have to remember to
start with the same strand on the other
side so the first thing you want to do
is to take the top strand cross that
over and into the middle now that one is
the top strand this is the middle strand
and this one is he thought of strands
then you're going to do the same thing
on the other side so take the bottom
strand and cross that over and into the
middle so now this is the top strand and
this is the middle strand and this is
the bottom strand so now you're started
off the braid so now you have to add in
hair and I hope two ways to add in here
so I'm going to show you both ways and
the first way is to take the top strand
grab some hair from the same side and
then ask that choose the top strand and
then cross that strand over and into the
middle like that then you're going to do
the same thing to the bottom strand so
take the bottom strand grab some hair
from the same side and then cross that
over and into the middle so now you just
have to continue doing that so take the
top strand grab some hair from the same
side and then cross that over and into
the middle then take the bottom strand
grab some hair from the same side and
cross that over and into the middle
again take the top strand grab some hair
from the same side and then cross that
over and into the middle again take the
bottom strands grab some hair from the
same side and then cross that over and
into the middle again take me tough
shrimp grab some hair from the same side
and then cross that over and into the
middle again take the bottom strand grab
some hair from the same side and cross
that over and into the middle again take
the top strand grab some hair from the
same side and then cross that over and
into the middle so that was one way to
add in hair and I'm going to show you
another way so instead of adding hair
before cropping the strand over it into
the middle we're going to add the hair
after so take your bottom strand cross
it over and into the middle then hold
all the strands into one hand grab some
hair from the same side and add this to
the middle strand like that then take
the top strand cross that over and into
the middle hold all the strands into one
hand grab some hair from the same side
just to make sure there's no is bunk
and then APIs to the middle strand then
take the bottom strand cross it over and
into the middle pull all the strands
into one hand grab some hair from the
same side and add that to the middle
strand then take these back around swap
it over and into the middle then take
some hair from the same side and add
that to the middle strand okay the
bottom strand plop it over and into the
middle then take some hair from the same
side and add that to the middle strand
then take the top strand cross it over
and into the middle
then grab some hair from the same side
and adds up to the middle strand so now
I don't have any more hair to add in so
now just going to break the rest of hair
like a normal braid
[Music]
and when it gets to the bottom of my
hair I'm just going to take an elastic
and secure the hair so now we just have
to do the exact same thing on the other
side but I am still going to show you
what I do from the top to the bottom so
take out the hair clip or hair tie
whatever you use so take a small section
of hair at the front that kind of looks
like a triangle and then split out into
three equal sections
like that on the other side I started
with the tough strands so I'm also going
to do that on this side so take the top
strand cross that over and into the
middle then take the bottom strand and
cross that over and into the middle so
now you have to start adding in hair and
again I'm going to show you the two
different ways to do that so the first
one was to take the top strand grab some
hair from the same side and add it to
the top strand and then cross that over
and into the middle then do the same
thing on the other side so take the
bottom strands grab some hair from the
same side and then cross that over and
into the middle again say these top
straps grab some hair from the same side
and then cross that over and into the
middle again take the bump grab
some hair from the same side and then
cross that over and into the middle then
take the top strand grab some hair from
the same side and then cross that over
and into the middle it Garrett take the
bun strand grab some hair from the same
side and then cross this over and into
the middle I'm going to take the top
strand grab some hair from the same side
and just smooth it out to there's no
bumps and then take this hair and cross
it over and into the middle again I take
the bottom strand grab some hair from
the same side and then cross this over
and into the middle again take the top
strand grab some hair from the back and
use it out so there is no bump and then
cross this hair over and in
the middle so now I'm going to show you
the other way to add in here where you
add it in after instead of before
crossing the hair over and into the
middle so take the bottom strand cross
that over and into the middle then hold
all the strands into one hand then grab
some hair from the same side and then
add that hair into the middle section
like that then take the top strand cross
that over and into the middle hold all
the strands into one hand then grab some
hair from the back and then cross that
over and into the middle section again
take these bottom strand cross this over
and into the middle then take some hair
from the same side and add it to the
middle section then take the top strand
cross that over and into the middle
without compare from the back and add
that to the middle strand then take the
bottom strand cross it over and into the
middle grab some hair and add that to
the middle strand then take these top
strands cross that over and into the
middle and some hair from the back and
now I don't have any more hair to add in
so now I'm just going to break the rest
of the hair like a normal braid
and again I'm just going to cure the
hair with an elastic so now that both
braids are done you can start to loosen
up the braids in different places if
some places aren't too tight you can
just loosen it up a bit if you want a
really thick and voluminous braid then
just go ahead and pull on the sides of
the braid to really sign it out and make
it really big you can also just leave it
like this if this is a load you're going
for but I really hope you guys found
this video helpful I really tried my
best to explain what I was doing but it
has been hard when my hands are blocking
what I'm doing but I really hope you
