The only thing that I did differently is that I took my hair and added the piece to the outermost strands.

Tips

This look is most easily achieved if one starts with a regular dutch braid and then adds the extra two strands. Also, make sure you have no tangles because that can become a big problem when you start braiding. Lastly, don't give up! I know creating hair looks can be difficult, trust me, we have all been there. But if you take the time to practice than this look will become like an instinct.

Hope y'all have success creating this look and I would love to see you looks! Tweet me at #hairwithzoey or tweet me directly @classygirlschic !
