Braids are an easy way to spice up your hairstyle, whether you have short or long hair. Here are 2 easy ways to braid your hair that looks both beautiful and interesting.

Three layered braid

Materials needed: Clips, 1 elastic, accessories (optional)

This braid looks very complicated but it is really easy to do as long as you know how to do a 3 strand braid and a fishtail.

1. Start off by sectioning your hair into 3 equal sections. Leave the bottom layer smooth, fastening with elastic or clip.

2. Next braid the middle layer. Pancake the edges to make them look fuller, the tighter you braid the more support you will have.

3. Lastly fishtail the top section, making sure it is in the middle of the other braid. Place on top of the other braid and fasten with an elastic. You can add an accessory if you'd like, I just covered the elastic with hair.

Double Dutch Bun

Materials needed: Comb to section hair with, clips, 2 elastics, bun maker, bobby pins

The next tutorial is a fun one, and it is only a tad bit more complicated than the first one. Just make sure to work neatly and you'll look amazing.

1. Start off by sectioning hair into 2 neat sections. Make sure that it is in the middle of your face.

2. Next do a dutch braid, picking up small equal sections as you go along.Pancake the braid to make it look fuller. Once you reach the end fasten with elastic or clip. Repeat on the other side.

3. Now that you have two dutch braids fasten both with one elastic and add the bun maker. Make the bun and fasten ends with bobby pins.

As you can see these two styles are super easy to do and it looks great. Let me know if you'd like me to do more tutorials in the future down below in the comments.
