My family and I have been social distancing from others during these crazy current events! As hard as that’s been, I’ve been loving @BrooklynAndBailey being home (plus it means I have more heads of hair walking around to use for hair tutorials)!

Step by Step Instructions:
Step 1: Separate three sections of hair starting from your hairline.
Step 2: Take the middle piece and move it under the left piece of hair. The original middle piece is now the left piece.
Step 3: Taking the NEW middle piece, now cross under the right section of hair.
Step 4: Scoop more hair from the left side of the head and combine into the left section of hair.
Step 5: Continue to scoop more hair from the sides of the head and combine the hair into the sections of the braid as you move down the head. The middle section always goes under the side sections.
Step 6: As you get to the last of the hair once you’ve reached the neck, continue a normal, 3 strand braid down the length of the hair.
Step 7: Tweak and fluff the braid where necessary, secure fly-aways or wispies with hairspray if desired.

Stay safe love you ❤️
Can you do braiding on yourself?
2 French braids!!
You should do half up half down but with a bun. Love you guys! 💞
Rope twist braids
You should do one that’s like how to French braid on yourself
That's what I struggle with. I can just about do it on someone else but it goes to pot on myself.
Ya me too. I struggle with handling the strands in my fingers on my own hair
Samee
I can do it, but my hands really hurt. I also struggle a little bit with Dutch braids
Yes!!
i love when yall do some braids for us beginners!!
Yay! I'll definitely keep that in mind in the future! 💋's -Mindy
Casie Plat hey you should watch my videos and cows say moo
Cows do say moo 🙃
I love French braids, although I don’t do them often! My mom is an expert. I like Dutch braids a little more, because I feel that they pop out more :)
Charu Shekhar same!!
Same!
You guys were my first channel I ever was allowed to watch on TH-cam and a 4th grader. 5 years later, and I still love you guys as much as I did then!💓
I would love to see some hairstyles for shorter hair too!
Same!
Same
I've been watching since she was a lil kid! Coming back I'm surprised how much she's grown! Beautiful!
Love you guys! So glad you’re still posting! Hope everyone’s safe!
Love you too! 💋's -Mindy
Chloe Mora hey you should watch my videos. Cows say moo
I’ve always wanted to learn how to French braid!💙
Simmer Julianna hey you should watch my videos. Cows say moo
Simmer Julianna me too!
@@starlavega6427 stop tryna get views
one of my goals over quarantine is to learn to french braid my hair, thank you!
Zoe Calhoun hope you achieve it!!
I know how to French braid and Dutch braid. I learned how to French braid from YOUR VIDEOS. And then i taught myself to Dutch i think once you know how to do French braid you can do a Dutch braid. Now I do braids on my little sister and i have started teaching one of my sisters and i will teach the other one when she is old and i want to thank you for teaching me because my mom can’t do it so now i can do it to my sisters and then we can all do it to our girls in the future. So thank you. LOVE YOU GUYS!!
You should do a video with tips on how to French braid on yourself!!! I desperately wish I could 😭
More such hairstyles please.
I love the way Mindy does anyone's hair. She has magic in her hands and in her style of explaining! Much much love.
I started watching these videos when I was 11-12 because my mom didnt have time to do my hair and I got so sick and tired of having my hair in the same 3 hairstyles. I watched some videos, saw that I could do parts of the hairstyles on myself (and at first without Bobby pins or clear elastics), changed the hairstyles to fit doing them on myself and my personality, and fell in love with this channel. I'm in the middle of college right now and 1 of the styles I do a lot I started doing around 10th grade. I still get compliments on it to this day when I've gotten it down to 2-3 minutes, at least before I cut my hair so it is harder to do now.
I love cute girls hairstyles!! ( Brooklyn’s hair is so pretty)
Arizona Lover ikr!!
Thank you so much for showing me this I can only do a normal and fishtail braid!!!
I have literally made it to my 30’s without being able to French braid!! I’ve also watched so many tutorials on how to do it and legit yours was the only one that made sense enough for me to “get it” and be able to replicate it!!! Thank you! 🙏🏻
I love your shirt! It’s giving me “Dorothy” vibes
Yay!!! Love y'all!!! Stay safe!!!! I am now learning new hair styles I never knew!!!
Love you too! 💋's -Mindy
Thank you!!! Stay safe!!!!
Ahhhh this gives me so much nostalgia watching :)
I can only dutch braid because i dont know where to put my hand when french braiding
Sarah Bint Nasir same!
For me, I accidentally learned how to dutch braid by trying to learn to french braid. Its practically the same technique, just moving the outer strands over the middle piece for a french, or under the middle piece for a Dutch. Turns out I preferred the look of Dutch braids on my hair cause the braid is more prominent on the head and I feel its tighter against the head too.
tbh i can't do anything.
i'm the opposite! I can only french and not dutch
@Kali yeah! Like I know how to do it in my mind but i dont know where to put my hands
a classic braid I love doing
I love your channel sooo much! Brooklyn you are beautiful! LOve yall
Awe thank you! We love you too! 💋's -Mindy
Could you please show a video of how to braid on yourself. I struggle with knowing what I am doing on my own hair.
please could you do a video on how to deal wih frizzy hair and baby hairs when doing hairstlyes like a braid or pony tail.
Is it just me or can you Dutch braid better on yourself, but French braid better on other people? Btw, luv u❤️, glad all of you are staying safe!
I am the same way! I rarely do french braids on my self but I do dutch Braids all the time!
Charla Anne with an E thank god someone relates, lol
@@sameehaahmed339 Haha. I totally do!!
Sameeha Ahmed yes! Same!
Same! And I’ve met other people who say the same
Sry for so many comments but can u also do a no heat wavy hair tutorial? I have soo many things I want to learn, specifically from you because ur so professional!
I use pretty much ALL Hairitage products now. I’m loving them!! 🥰🥰
Hi! I love your shirt Ms. Mindy! I love your family! ❤️
Awe thank you! We love you too! 💋's -Mindy
Brooklyn’s hair is so pretty!!
I love the easy beginner braids!!
So glad y’all are staying safe! I will be praying for y’all. Luv u💛💛
I have been watching this channel since I was four on a non signed in TH-cam account or my mums phone. I have been watching for 6 years! we used to always use your videos as an “idea” for my hair. My mum and I kind of dragged off of you guys channel but I love to come back and watch the vlogs!
Yay!!!! So excited for this video!
This reminds me of when I used to binge watch all your hairstyle videos when I was sick
Hope u guys are doing good during this testing time and ur content is giving me something to do/practice so thank you 😊
U guys r rlly inspiring
😊😊😊😊😊
I've been watching your videos ever since. Now your girls are all grown up. You really inspire me. I love braiding and now that I have a daughter, we are both loving your channel.
I love how I have been braiding for like 10 years and I do it best when watching your videos
I love mindy doing hairdos
Glad you guys are back to doing hair tutorials!
This is my go to hairstyle!! So easy and comfortable
I want more back to basics like the Dutch french braids
Thanks for the tutorial! I really like your usual videos, but I need to learn the basics first. Also, brooklyn has the most beautiful hair I've ever seen!
I already know how to French braid but I ain’t no pro! I’m just watching bc I love y’all!❤️❤️
Finally this tutorial makes sense... and it actually looks like a braid , tysm ily
I have been wanting to learn how to do a French Braid for so long. Thank you soooo much!
So glad this video could help! 💋's -Mindy
I followed this video for my own hair and I nailed it on my first try!!! Thank you!!! Finallllllly
My brain: I can do this myself!
My fingers: I can't do this... I need someone......
Edit: 140 LIKES ARE YOU CRAZY?!?!?!
YesThatsMyName Really sooo truee!!
EXACTLY!!! She makes it look so easy lol
Omg soooo relatable
I totally feel you! French braids are relatively easy to do, but my hair is so long and thick, it sometimes gets tangled, my arms get tired...
Omg me too I’m like you can do it
Fingers: I can’t do it to much hAiR! 🤪🤦♀️😭🥺😂
idk why I’m watching this I already know how to braid lmao
same, I forwarded it to my parents tho bc I don't want to be the only one in my family to be able to do these type of braids (I have the longest hair out of us three girls, so my younger sisters often ask me to do their hair and it's annoying)
V Hehl I had to learn to braid my own hair because my mom can’t braid! I totally relate!!
@@magicalgiraffe5855 me too! I can braid my own hair better than others now haha
Thanks, my mom needs to learn!!
I remember watching your videos probably after about a year of you filming, but just occasionally. I started watching them regally probably about 8 years ago.
I don’t think I have ever been this early in all the 7 years i have been watching you guys. I needed this video so badly thanks!
A tip for anyone trying this is practice really makes perfect! It took me years to be able to braid on myself and much more for it to look nice and tight.
I kinda needed a recap of how to french braid... thank you for sharing the tactic!!
I’ve watched a ton of videos trying to remember how to French braid but I kept getting that funky part at the base of the broad. Your video helped me fix that finally and my braid looks perfect now!
Super Cute! So easy!❤️
I would love to see a tutorial on how to do it on myself!
This was so helpful thank you so much im literally chilling with a frensh braid right now love you and brooklyn and your whole family staysafe and stayhome bye 🤍🤍🤍🤍😃
I love that you don’t forget about us beginners 😉
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I've watched so many other videos and they all made this SO complicated!! I was able to do it on the first try here! I've been able to do a Dutch braid since high school (I've got my own kids now) and have just never been able to pick up the French braid but you guys just showed me how easy it is!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
I love you soooo much and you all have the prettiest eyes!!!💕💕
THANK YOU SO MUCH! In quarantine, I’ve been experimenting with hairstyles a bunch! Your videos have been really helpful 💖💖💖
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!! I taught myself how to french braid when I was 12, and just went with how I taught myself, but there was always something off with my braid..... it was your trick of always putting the middle piece under while braiding. It solved my issue in seconds!
Could you show a tutorial on how to fish tail braid! I have always wanted to learn that! It would be great if you did!❤️💗
~Xoxo Kate
You divide your hair into 2 and grab a strand and cross it to the other section than grab strand from the opposite side and cross it to to the other section than keep going
YES!! Now I finally know how to french braid. :)
I’ve been watching since your channel started! Crazy!!
Now started watching your videos what have i been doing with my life ? All these videos are so easy and comfortable to follow almost like what asmr suppose to actually be.💖💖💖💖 Dont ever stop making videos
My mom is doing this for me now. She says when you do it it's the bom!
U are exactly right! Hand placement is the hardest part of it!!! I have to get better at holding because it completely messes the whole braid up if you cant hold your pieces right. My little girl has fly always like crazy so I have to do hers wet all the time. It looks super sloppy if not.
How do you go from doing a french braid on someone else, to doing it on yourself?
Great content!
Hey Mindy! I am not sure how feasible this may be as I know you are crazy busy, but it would be awesome if you opened a blow-dry bar franchise that used the Hairitage line to wash and style hair into the hairstyles from your videos. It would be a combination of what you have already done during the Walmart meet-and-greet and before the Hairitage launch party! I know that I'd definitely love something like that for prom or other formal events, as I like to watch your videos but have difficulty doing the hairstyles on myself or finding someone to do them on me. Maybe you could offer makeup services, too!
It would also be really cool if you made a video about a male hair-care routine with Daxton or Shaun and address whether there are any differences! I hope you and your family are well and safe during the quarantine!
Ariana Bista these are such great ideas!!
Thanks for teaching me how to do a French braid
I have never been able to do a good French braid and this video helped a lot!!! ❤️💕🌸
I would love to see a video on how Brooklyn curls her hair.

Ahhhhh yay!!!! I love you guys thank you sm for this 😭❤️
Love you too! 💋's -Mindy

I’m really good at Dutch braiding lol
Me: knows how to do a perfect french braid.

Thank you so much!! Pls make more videos on how to French braid two braids..!!!!!
Love you guys!!!❤️❤️❤️
More videos like this Mindy!!!!! 😁
I know how to french braid but i’m bored so ima watch this
Just a suggestion I think if the camera angle is a bit higher we could see the strands a little easier. Nonetheless thanks for the tutorial! Could you do one for how to French braid on yourself? My fingers get all confused behind my head. 🥰
Love this thanks guys! I can do a Dutch braid but not a French but will learn from this!! Xx
Due to quarantine I’ve been taking time to learn to do my hair, so this is super useful!
nice remembrance😉 the previous one was yeeeaaaars ago when Brooklyn was an early teen I guess. Time flies!
Thanks for tutoring it again. French braid is inclusive 'cause you can wear it almost everywhere: from workplace and gym to daily life. And if learn it you can make lots'a other braids & hairstyles.
Sorry if I comment less often than before. so busy with my life and the new language learning😊 (Haaaard 😥German🇩🇪, the language of your origin)
This is a beautiful braid
hey !! I was trying for like 7 years but could not :( Finally I can do my french braid following your instructions
Love u Brooklyn and mindy
Great video! Thanks for this and keep it up! Now im gonna play with my daughters hair. 😀
