Upward Lace Braid And #Sharethegift Nativity Collab

____________________________
This week's tutorial uses a Lace Braid, only instead of adding hair only into the top, as we've shown you in several tutorials, you only add hair into the bottom!
The effect that this braid gives you is a "faux waterfall braid" look, only no hair actually falls through the braid.
To see your own photo recreations featured in our CGH app, feel free to tag your own photos of this hairstyle on IG with: #CGHUpwardLaceBraid
I think this braid looks the best brought back into a tieback, however you can continue this braid around the back of the head and secured behind the other ear.
This technique works on curly hair, wavy hair, straight hair, wet hair, dry hair, Day 2 hair, etc. Really, you can use it to accent pretty much any hairstyle!
's -Mindy
Items Needed: Brush, rat-tail comb, spray bottle, 1 small hair elastic, hairspray and accessory {if desired}.
Time Requirement: 3-5 minutes
Skill Level: Medium

-Hey guys., It's Mindy from Cute Girls, Hairstyles. And today, I'm here with Kamri and we're going to show you a hairstyle that we're calling upward lace braid. Now this one's great because with it being the holiday season, it's a fantastic one to wear to your holiday parties. That'S quick and easy. For this hairstyle. You can have short hair long, hair, wet hair, dry, hair, curly, hair or straight hair.. It will work on any of them.. We'Ve opted today to just run a straightener over her hair and I've parted it just slightly off to one side.. I'M going to go back up to the front here and just pick up a section of hair, that's going to become our first little section of braid.. Now, when you're normally doing a lace braid, you know that you only bring hair in on one side and typically it's the top side.. So you're pulling the strands in a downward motion like this to add them into the braid. And in this braid we're going to reverse that.. We'Re actually going to be taking the strands from the bottom part of the hair and pulling them upward into the braid, which is why we're calling it an upward lace, braid.. So you're going to take this divide it into three pieces and just go ahead and do one very typical section of braid.: We're not going to drop any pieces like a waterfall. But we're going to go in right here and we're going to just move this hair over a little., So we kind of want to reach underneath and we're going to grab just a little section of hair., And this is the key to this hairstyle.. Do you see how you can see the hair actually pulling back, and this is still kind of laying over the top? That'S exactly what you want. As you pull the hair.. You want to see that little section of hair going back into the braid. So we're adding that in and then we do another normal stitch of hair.. When we get to this side again, I'm going to just move some hair over, because I kind of want to reach underneath and pick up a little bit of hair. And again, I'm looking for that pulled back motion in the hair and then falling piece.. We'Re going to add that into the braid and we're just going to continue to do this as we go towards the back of her head. And again we're not adding any hair in on that top side.. So I'll do it one more time., You kind of just take your finger and push forward a little bit and then scoop out a little piece of hair and add it in. And for her when I get about halfway through the back of her head, I'm going To go ahead and just do a couple of stitches of a normal braid, because I'm going to go back and do it on the other side and meet them in the middle.. But another great option that we have done is to continue this all the way around and then, when you get to this side, just kind of bobby pin the end down underneath. So you have this stranding all the way in one continuous piece. Instead of doing two that meet in the middle., So now we're going to repeat the exact same process on the other side of her head.. When you get to where you have both the braids finished, you're just going to pull them together and use an elastic to hook them up and secure them., You have lots of options here.. I could have continued the braids all the way down and secured them at the bottom.. At this point, you could turn this part of the hair into another braid and make it a cute flower on the back or you can just brush it out like we're going to today and use a cute bow for the accent, --, lots and lots of options.. Ok guys, let's do the final spin.. You can see all those fun pieces pulling into that lace, braid on both sides. And it really almost looks like a waterfall braid.. It'S a faux, waterfall braid.. So there you have it. If you guys follow our family on Instagram. At Cute Girls Hairstyles, you know that recently we went to Utah to participate in setting a Guinness Book of World Records, the largest nativity video.. Now, when we went over there, we took the whole family and the crew, and we got to participate in this amazing Christmas. Video and it's about the true meaning of Christmas, and really sharing the gift of Christmas with other people.. So if you guys want to check it out, it's up and live and amazing. It's right here or in the description box, below., Be sure to check for the little kids. The whole family was in it.. We had an angel and some shepherds and a lamb and Daxton was the little Joseph. So you'll see all of us have little cameos in video., But I just wanted to share with you guys. I have lots and lots of Christmas memories, but one that I added to my memory banks this year when we were working on this video was the day that we were filming kind of like the family gathering scene and the kids were all in their nativity clothes And ready to go and they were adjusting the cameras, so it was taking a few minutes and the kids were getting restless. So randomly somebody suggested singing some carols.. Do you remember what we sang Kamri -'', Silent, Night.'' -Yes., And we were with Alex Boye and David Archuleta and the Shaytard family and -- -Peter Hollens. --, The Piano Guys and Peter Hollens., And there were all of these amazing musically oriented people. And it busts out In this `` Silent, Night'' rendition, basically in what like six part harmony., I mean it was amazing. And as I sat there, it was just one of those moments, those really touching moments where all of our kids were in front of us and they were dressed up In this little nativity and it was like the kids calmed down and the room just --, the feeling in the room was truly the spirit of Christmas, as we all sat and really spent a few moments. Just pondering the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ and the reason that we actually celebrate Christmas., It's not about presents - and it's not about that kind of thing - about the shopping.. It'S really about the birth of our Savior and for me, that's definitely one. I'M going to put into my memory banks for one of my favorite Christmas memories for our family., So I hope that you guys have a wonderful Christmas holiday.. If you love the video, please share it with others, because it's really a fantastic video and we had so much fun, filming it. And we will see you guys next Sunday. Bye, you guys. -Bye
