Little Girl's Hairstyles -- How to use a 4 strand braid with a French Braid! 15-20 min

Little Girl's Hairdo using two different braids!

Four strand braid and french braid


SO, now that you all know how to do a 4 strand braid, here's how to put it in a little girl hairdo with a french braid! This is a great style for long hair, but you could work in a shorter length as well.
I really love any kind of braiding done up by the face, and I know I do styles similar to this often. BUT what can I say? I like it! So for this hairdo, I parted off a side part to the crown, and then crosswise down to the ears, and clipped off the back. And of course, I worked with wet hair.
I began french braiding, angling it toward her ear.
And I continued the braid down far enough to reach back into a ponytail. You could also join the two side braids down underneath the ponytail if you like.
Same french braid on the other side.
Next I combed back all the remaining hair into a low ponytail,
and brought in my two side braids.
Then I did a 4 strand braid in her ponytail!
Put in a cute bow, and she's done!

Have fun doing this super cute little girl hairdo!

  2. Your work is so neat and tidy and smooth. Do you always comb out everything when yiou are braiding? My french braids never look this good, but i'm practicing. Love the 4 strand braid too.
