    For beginners start with the Dutch braid :) French braid is harder on yourself.
    Dutch is easy on yourself, French is harder on yourself
    French is easy to do on someone else but Dutch is harder to do on someone else.
    I’ve mastered the Dutch braid on myself and I couldn’t braid before! I started out with French braid and couldn’t do it, my hairstylist friend told that Dutch is easier to do on yourself specially for beginners.
    It only took me 2 days to get the hand technique down for Dutch and one week and a half to get a perfect braid. Dutch does look better on thicker hair but if you have thin hair it’s still a better braid to practice first.

      it's hard when you're first learning but it gets easier as your hands get more used to the technique, i've been doing it for like an hour and i've found though my braid is very far from perfect, it got easier as i got more experience holding the hair and separating strands

    For my fellow can't braiders, think about it like the French twist: it's the same thing except with 3 strands, and so you're crossing into the middle and adding immediately to the new bottom or top strand that was previously the middle piece!

    AWESOME TIP FOR FRIZZIER HAIR! ❤❤
    1: wet hair with water for a straighter strand to make it easier to braid :)
    2: use a hair spray or gel to smooth your hair if you don’t want water

    Hey from London. 👋 I have rib cage length thick black hair being of Indian origin but this video was the one that french braiding finally sunk in for me after about a year trying on and off! Literally the highlight of lockdown. Mine isn't perfect but as she says, keep at it and you'll get it and will become neater and easier.
    Tips for longer hair - try sitting at a table with a mirror to rest your elbows down on whilst holding the braid for a break. If you don't have a dressing table, perhaps move a mirror to a table, up against a wall to make a temporary make shift one. To add height and comfort, try adding a pillow on top the table so when it starts to ache you get immediate relief by dropping your elbows down.
    The things we go through hey!? Happy braiding long haired and all length girls, we can do this!
    Thank you for the video and your really nice manner of explaining.

    I just wanted to commend you on this video- I've watched about 4 this morning and this one was by far the best!
    Love your tips, especially that you take your time. This seems like something peaceful in your usual routine that others find stressful. It really is a skill to be learned!
    I originally learned how to braid going under, not over, and for years I didn't understand why I couldn't do a French braid. Today I took the time to look it up! I will say a French braid is much harder for me! Going under I can just twist my hands. But the Dutch braids get messy a lot faster, which is why I wanted to flip them in. We share a lot of the same techniques- hand position, angling 45 degrees, adding hair at the beginning. But your explanation as to why my right braid looks significantly better makes a lot of sense! Thanks for all of this! ❤️

Every other chick on here is like “okay put this strand over this strand and take hair with this strand and then put that over this strand” which is super unhelpful. You’re the bomb boo thank u ❤

I use to try to add hair to all of the 3 sections, for each braid 🤦🏽‍♀️verses just adding hair to the middle. And it was just always a mess! And your triangle starting point helped a lot too!!!
