Hi guys, thank you so much for watching. I am so excited to finally be making this tutorial for you. It'S been really really requested and I just really love it so much. It really does take me under two minutes, and I do it all the time, but I'm slowing it down a little bit to show you guys but his tutorials, so you can see how it's done so. The first thing I want to do is start by coating. My hair a little bit with some dry shampoo, especially if it's clean, but even if it's dirty it will really just help. You get a lot of grip and hold which will help the style hold up a lot better, and the next thing I'm gon na do is to smooth my hair out with my hairbrush just getting rid of any unnecessary tangles, because you're really gon na want that. Your hair to be as smooth as possible for the sectioning process, and it's also very important that once you've brushed it that you also loosen it up again from your scalp because brushing it will kind of smooth your hair against your scalp. And you really want that. Extra lift and volume, which is really how I like it, so just use your fingers like a claw and just scratch your scalp a little bit that will go into the trick. Alright, so getting started with the braids you're. Just gon na make a side part on the opposite side, where you want your braids to be and you're gon na start with a small rectangular section of hair in this tutorial, I'm starting on my left side and I'm just gon na split that section in half And take the front pulling it over to the back next, I'm just gon na add some more hair to the front section and crisscross it with the back and bringing it over then you'll, just repeat the process, adding more hair into the front section before you crisscross. It over and to the back again you're just going to keep this process going all the way down by again, simply just adding some more hair into your front section, making sure to keep it nice and tight, making sure your hair is smooth. And then you don't have any more tangles on the way down and just keep criss crossing the front over into the back, bringing that back section under and forwards once you start getting closer to your shoulders start reaching farther back and grabbing bigger chunks of hair. Farther back around your head to add in to your braid, the idea is to be finished, adding hair right before you reach your shoulders, so try to kind of roughly gage that as you go along. This is where you can see how adding in that extra dry. Shampoo has really created a lot of thickness in my hair, which, in the end, makes it really easy for my braids to look a lot thicker and to hold a lot better, all right. So here's the kind of tricky part you're going to take both of your bottom sections and twist them both counterclockwise as tightly as you can go before they start to twist on their own and then you're going to start twisting them together clockwise around each other. Keep twisting them as you go all the way down, twisting counterclockwise and then wrapping them around each other clockwise secure the end with a hair tie. Next is the most important part, we're for sure you can leave it sleek, but I love to pull it out as much as I can to make it look as full and thick as possible, so you're just going to start taking a section in turn and holding The rest of your hair still you're gon na pull that section out beyond where you want it to be, because it will settle back into place. You can see here how I'm pulling it far out and then I'm letting it go, and I kind of settles back in so the wider and thicker that you want just keep kind of pulling and tugging, and you will see them get so much fuller and thicker. As you go along, it really just gives a much fuller and better look in my opinion. After going all the way down, I kind of just go back all the way. Up and again, you can keep messing with it as much as you want and just play with it. You really can't double and triple the thickness. If you keep going and adding even more product, if you'd like you, can pull out some stray hairs and make it look more effortless and easygoing. But just don't forget that when you're finished to coat the whole thing with some good hairspray and be careful to kind of smooth your braid as you go to help it hold in all day long and that's it. I first did this style kind of on accident, because I was just trying to keep my hair out of my face and keep it long at the same time, and I just couldn't believe how easy it was and how quickly it came together. So I hope that you enjoyed this tutorial. Thank you so much for watching, don't forget to subscribe, and I will see you guys in my next video
Comments
Heatherwind: I want to say how happy I am for this tutorial. I'm 45 years old, and though I love keeping my hair long, I've never very skilled at styling my own hair (a friend teased me that 'I don't know how to girl'). I couldn't even get the hang of French braiding, and figured I'd just have to stick with a basic 3-strand forever. But something about your tutorial clicked with me, and for the first time in my life I actually managed to replicate a braid tutorial with perfect results. I've since adopted the single side braid as my 'going out' look, and twin side braids for wear-a-day, and absolutely love them. It may sound silly, but I can't begin to tell you what a confidence booster it was to learn how to do this, and I'm astounded it actually can be done in under two minutes. Thank you so much for a great tutorial!
Chantal van den Berg: Cool! thanks! Note: I was struggling with the last part for about half an hour, when I figured I was working on my right side, so doing the braid clockwise, which meant I had to do the twisting reversed, so counter clockwise. But yay, figured it out!
Angelisa: One strand of your hair is like, my whole hair. xD
jvos1290: I accidentally created this hairstyle for myself by trying to keep my hair away from my face as well! So cool to see your tutorial on it :)
WeAllFallDown: I work two jobs and am putting myself through school, your tutorials have made it so easy to look professional and keep my hair out of my face. Thank you so much for posting stuff like this!

cj222100: My hair is very long & usually I put it in a bun at work, but I wore this the other day & everyone went crazy over it! The tip with the dry shampoo is seriously life changing, my hair is very slippery & won't pancake on its own but with the dry shampoo it fluffs out really nicely!
Den of the Inkwolf: This is a god sent. I've struggled to braid and style my hair before. I literally just tried once and I got this braid down. I'm so excited right now.

Anon: The first hair tutorial I've seen that was actually as simple as stated and easy enough that even I can do it (for some reason I can never get the results from hair tutorials even if I follow it to a t!).

Heather Marcus: I ♥️ your hair tutorials. I had short hair most of my life, so still learning the long hair tricks. These are so easy and quick and cute! I usually skip out of tutorials because they are long and look like a hassle. I feel like I can actually pull yours off. Keep up the good work.

Fish tails... done it. Nailed it... now killed it. Used it everyday forever and ever and so rubbish because it's not french braids. BUT THIS IS DO ABLE. FOR ANYONE! I love you for it. My hair loves you for it.
