How to do double Dutch braids updo?

Part to the right side.

Repeat on the other side, not picking the hair from the crown.
Take the hair which is left in the middle and create a bun. Stick the ends under the elastic.
Take one braid, create a gap in a braid right above the bun and pull another braid through the gap. Pin the braids above the bun, take the ends and place them across the bun and pin under.
