The Waterfall Braid {Plait} | Popular Hairstyles | Cute Girls Hairstyles
This YouTube's first-ever clearly-explained and filmed demonstration of the Waterfall Braid! My daughter is the one who gave it this name, because she felt it looked like a waterfall over a cliff's edge.

This is a quick tutorial on how to create a "Waterfall French Braid" {also called a Cascade Braid or Fairytale Braid}. This hairdo requires a French Braid from the front, side of the head to the back, side of the head. The key to the elegant look is instead of pulling more hair into the bottom strand as is typical of French Braiding... you allow it to fall and instead pick up a new strand from the bottom.
You can do the same to the other side and connect them in the back, or use the Waterfall Braid in various combo styles!
This is an elegant look and very good for moms, teens, and tweens!

Ok. Today, I'm going to demo the fall through French braid.. This is a little bit different French, braid and you'll, see as I go along why., But I've already straightened her hair so that it's nice and flat.. I like the way that this French braid looks better in straight hair, so I straighten my girl's., But if you don't want to do that, you can do it on curly as well.. So I start at the top. Just gather enough hair to do three strands. Just like a typical French braid and divide into three sections., This is all exactly the same, so far. Then you're going to cross the strands.. And now, when you go to pick up hair at the top just pick it up like normal and add it into that piece and switch it., Here's the only difference. When you get to the bottom rather than adding hair into this bottom piece, you're going to have Her hold it and you're going to pick up hair and create a separate strand and then add that strand in.. So instead of adding it, you create a new one.. So come back up to the top and add hair in, like normal. Switch places. And then again have her hold the bottom strand. Pick up hair. And create a new strand. And you just keep doing that.. Add hair in at the top.. Have her hold the bottom. Pick up new hair. And you'll see what happens in just a minute. Add in new hair at the top.. Have her hold the bottom piece out of the way. Pick up new hair and add it in. Pick up hair at the top.? Add it in. Have her hold the bottom piece. When you get far enough back on the head, then I just quit and just create a normal braid at the end to rubber band off.. So on hers, I'm just going to braid it down just a little bit and then add a rubber band at the bottom. And then have her. Let these hairs down and brush them out., And what you can see is that it creates kind of a fall through appearance from those hairs that you released. And you can see it just looks just a little bit different than a regular French braid. But I think it's really cute and people really comment on it because it is different. And then just add a little hairspray and you're ready to go.. One thing to keep in mind with this is because these hairs aren't really super secure, --. You could see they're fairly loose -- just keep that in mind., If she's going to have a day where she's running around a ton. That might not be the perfect hairdo for that day.

You have some extremely cute styles. You have made them easy to do as well. The other video I saw on this style required the use of a large plastic needle to thread the hair through the braids. Your way is SO much easier. Thank you so much. Seeing your girls hair has opened my daughter up to different hairdos. Let the fun begin!

Merel Zegwaard: I looooove this braid! And I'm getting better and better at it (: It's just a lot of practising I think.
thethingabouthappiness: I love this! So cute.
Hayley: That's really pretty. It's interesting to see different terminology in different parts of the world - in australia a braid is what your doing without the waterfall and a French braid is an inside out braid. Interesting.
aaartrobloxlly: i just love watching the videos and learning different ones to do for my sister and daughter
SillyLilKoala: I learned waterfall a little differently, I'm going to try this version on myself! The one I learned is that you don't grab anything for the bottom, you just make a new section from the top of the hair. Also, if you're doing this on yourself, you can stick the sections in your mouth. It works! :)
thc bliss: You are very talented! My mom NEVER braided my hair. I had to do it my whole life haha. You should go to beauty school!
TheNightsShadow93: this is so simple and awesome!!
m141698: thats an awesome braid! ive never seen that before! =)
