Dutch Braids For Beginners! Easy single dutch braid Step by Step

Dutch braids give a lot of volume and still keep your hair out of your face! Unless you keep some hair down to frame your face or leave your bangs out, which is a look I love! It gives a nice polished look and elevates the hairstyle!

This post is all about how to learn dutch braids!

 Simple and Easy Single Braid

If you’re struggling to add hair when you are dutch braiding your own hair, then know that there are 2 ways to add hair! In this video, I’m showing you a second way of adding hair in and how to hold the strands to make adding hair super easy!

If you don’t like the way I’m showing you in this video, then further down below I will link to the 1 way of adding hair in! I like to do both ways when I braid my own hair, so just pick out what ever works the best for you. If you have a third way that works for you, stick to that, because there is no right or wrong way to do braids!
