FAQ: Prom Hair Updos

How to do double Dutch braids updo?

  1. Part to the right side.
  2. Pick up a section on the right side and divide three pieces for a Dutch braid, where you place each section underneath a middle one, gradually adding more hair. Once it reaches to the right ear, stop adding hair and braid down. Secure with a pin.
  3. Repeat on the other side, not picking the hair from the crown.
  4. Take the hair which is left in the middle and create a bun. Stick the ends under the elastic.
  5. 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.

How to style box braids?

This is an elegant style where you still have length and keep the front pieces away from your face.

  2. Take the rest of the braids and wrap them around your head. Place them behind your ear, swap them across each other and pull them through. Bring them back to the front and then pin the ends.
