Ok, I love this... it's adorable, and I can avoid a pony tail or bun, which is awesome. No arm pain for me, but I'm used to braiding my hair, which is currently down to my natural waist (no layers, other than natural from my hair's insistence on natural U shaping) ... yea, I have a lot of hair - made it kinda tricky towards the nape of the neck, but this is gorgeous... took me two tries to get it good enough to wear in public. Totally doable, even if you aren't that great at braiding your own hair, just takes a little practice :D

Finally! After several errors, I nailed it! Here some tips, you have to make sure that each finger separate the right strand, where to hold, and how to hold...after first row, take your time to separate each strand and widen the gap so it is easier for your fingers to find their way going under and over. And keep doing that if you are not sure if it is the right gap to go under or over. Hope it helps, the result worth the effort :D

Got it! Took several tries, but you're right. Just thinking of the fingers and not worrying about the hair worked. I also had to be sure that I was looping around the strands PAST my fingers, instead of right next to my head, otherwise sometimes I'd group two sections together.

Thi 5strand braid is just so easy to braid if you know how and there are so many variations...

This is a tremendously difficult way to do a Dutch Braid, 5 strand. It is really very easy.... -split the hair at the crown. -left hand, hold 2 sections -leave one section in the middle -right hand, hold 2 sections *Start on left -Take the first section under the second and over the middle -Go to the right side -Take section 1 on the right under right hand section 2, over the middle. -Go back to the left and grab some additional hair, That becomes section 1 -Under section 2 on the left -Over section 3 -Go to the right side, grab some extra hair and That becomes section 1 on the right. -Weave it under section 2 on the right and over the middle .........keep going. Then you're done.

+italianredneckgirl could you do a video or share a link that has a tutorial on doing it this way. This sounds easier for me since my hair is super thick and this seems to cut down on holding all the sections at once.

+MultiCuriouskitty sure, I'll give it a go. My youngest daughter has been growing her hair for Wigs 4 Kids and I couldn't French braid to save my life. Horrible for my 23 year old, lol. But, honestly, the way I learned it was to use bread making tutorials. I know, it's crazy, but true! 5 strand, 3 strand, even 11 strand!

i got it! :) it took the length of a tv show… but i finally got the rhythm of the "weaving" and it looks beautiful! to anybody who's having trouble: practice without adding the extra hair on each side. once you find that rhythm, it's easier to add-in that extra "french" touch after… that's what i did and it worked. and i agree with abby, stick with it! :)

It also works to make two french braids leaving that crown piece out of the braids. Take the crown piece separate it into three and braid it. You pick up a loop of hair from each french braid with the outside pieces. It's like you are sewing the two braids together.
