How To Dutch Infinity Braid
An infinity braid is quite simple to do, as you just wrap the hair around in figure 8s. To achieve the dutch infinity braid you simply add hair to the wrapping strand when braiding on both sides.
The technique is quite simple, but the hard part is the hand placement. If you don’t have the hand placement down, you are going to struggle! But luckily I show you how to hold the hair in the tutorial down below, so now all it takes is practice!
