The Dutch Braid

next
High Five for Friday
The dutch braid. The “under” braid. The reverse french braid. There are a bunch of names for this braiding technique. 
Basically, it’s a french braid created on top of the hair, instead of underneath. And it’s not much more complicated than a french braid. 
When I was learning to braid, I taught myself this way first, and then had to take more time to learn the classic french braid. 

Here is the tutorial for you! 

(don’t count the ## of times I say the word “under”. It’s just too many.)

The Double Bun tutorial I mention in the video can be found here

Hi Kate, this is a cute style, going to give it a try, with the hot weather, great way to wear your hair down and keep bangs at bay. I would like to know how you get that “piecey” look at your crown area? Mine has a tendancy to to look too smooth. I use the Aquage Uplifting Foam, but wondering if I’m not using enough in my crown area?
Thank you,

Make sure you keep this in mind when shopping for shoes. This means that you should never buy shoes without fitting them. Try on different pairs and try walking while wearing each pair. If you feel a pair is making it hard for you to walk in a gracious manner, skip this, and go on to the next one. Never buy silver wedding sandals without fitting them even though the shoes are the same size as your feet.
