How To DUTCH BRAID + for beginners

[@elg12487]

I finally know how to braid! Thank you Abby! I am 30 and have asked everyone to teach me and no one could...Abby You Did IT!!! You taught me how to braid my hair and I am so grateful!!!

[@danielafonto5534]

This was so helpful! :) I've been struggling with Dutch/ French braids for years. Finally learned how to do it well.

[@kikileigh9891]

I am SO HAPPY to have found your channel!! I am 51 years young & have long layered, baby fine blonde hair & it is so hard to give my hair any kind of style that creates an illusion of full hair. I have a bubbly personality & am SO envious of women that have full and/or texturized hair. The amazing styles that I always see look so fun, flirty, feminine & flawless (not to mention effortless)....but for us ladies with fine or thin hair, we know it takes A LOT of effort to accomplish anything close to those awesome styles. While I’m not a beginner to braiding, I do find it harder to do the braids on myself. Your videos are so well demonstrated, that with continued watching of your tutorials I believe there just might be hope for me yet!! Thank you for taking the time to share all these great hairstyles!!It’s important to note, we women come in all shapes & sizes - and so does our hair. Regardless of your hair type, length, texture, etc.we need to always help & support each other! Sharing & celebrating our differences is what brings us together ~ we are stronger united than we could ever be divided! Many Blessings 🙏🏻😉 👱🏻‍♀️💜👩🏿‍🦳❤️👩🏼‍🦱🧡🧕🏽💙👩🏻‍🦱💖👩🏾‍🦱💚👩🏻‍🦰💛👳🏾‍♀️

Thank you. I am 45 and my daughter (who is 14 & in the 9th grade) said she wanted a dutch Braid for homecoming. I have never been able to do a Dutch Braid. Which seems crazy since I'm a whiz at French braids & I can do corn rows. But any way. I watched at pile of videos on Dutch braids to no avail. With only 12 hours until the dance I was getting nervous. And then I I found your channel & a video you did back in 2017 where you did 10 cute styles for medium length hair. So I thought I would see if you had a Dutch Braid tutorial, after watching this video once. I was able to do a Dutch Braid on myself. I was giddy. After a couple more tries without looking in the mirror as you suggested. I was making it so much harder that it really was. So I want to thank you & my daughter says thank you. I am a new subscriber, & you will be my first stop for all of our had hairstyling videos.

[@lucyjacobs3704]

That is such a lovely message

[@stantwice2756]

This is literally the best Dutch braid tutorial i watched. Been always wondering why my braids keep turning into French braids and it turned out I was doing it incorrectly the whole time

[@calvinskutnik3490]

This was very helpful, thank you! I do my girls hair as well as my wife’s hair. I’m really good at a variety of braid styles but have never done a Dutch braid before. Thank you for this tutorial, I will be trying this out today for sure :)

[@sunshine808dml]

OOOOHHH EMMMMM GEEEEE!! I'm 42 years old and have never been able to braid my own hair. Then i saw your vid and watched it like....probably at least 6 or 7 times before I started. Then i did what you said..."don't look in the mirror and just copy what i do." HALLE-FRIGGIN-LUJAH!! I BRAIDED MY OWN HAIR FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER!!!! I'm so happy and literally crying cause i'm so excited! thank you Thank You THANK YOU!!!!!!

[@JanelJMG]

Thank you so much! I’ve searched online endlessly for “How to” and came across your video. Thank you for the step by step instructions and facing the back of your hair in front of the camera for us picky visual people. I can finally dutch braid my daughters hair.

[@annakowalska2775]

You are the best teacher I have every had ..Greetings from Poland!

[@elinawinters1958]

You are the best, I don't know what I would do without your videos to help me get ready for the day! Don't stop making new videos!!!

[@DonnaDeMasi]

LOVE THE WAY YOU TEACH HOW TO BRAID....NO ONE DOES IT BETTER....THANK YOU.

[@ashleighsherlin4704]

I have been searching for years for the perfect Dutch braid video and this one is 100% the best video ever I think if I watch it enough I’ll figure this out thank you so much

[@andreacyr2796]

I am in LOVE with your videos. I have been French braiding my hair for 25 years, and now, finally at the tender age of 50, I can finally Dutch and fishtail braid!!!! I'm obsessed! Thank you!!

[@daisiepwr]

I am so happy I found your dutch braid tutorial! I have watched dozens, and dozens of tutorials and could never nail the first few stiches despite watching the videos over and over. Your instructions are so clear, and your tip to not look in the mirror was so good. Thank you! Also super happy that you didn't start with the double dutch braids... there's not too many videos with just a single braid.

[@mackattack96]

It only took 21 years, 9 months, and 7 days, But now (thanks to you!!!) I can finally braid my own hair! Now I feel confident in being able to practice a bit more, become proficient, and do my own hair as well as my future daughters! Thank you so much!

[@ghut11]

I can do French and Dutch on other people no problem (4 daughters, lots of practice) and can do French on myself easily as well. Ive watched dozens of videos trying to figure out how to do Dutch on myself and none of them helped. I watched this video like 5 times in a row and now I'm doing it and it's working and....you're amazing! Lol thank you!

[@carlywelsh7919]

I am 38 and this has finally taught me to braid!!!!!!!!!! Yeyyyyyyy xx

[@nataliev3366]

I’m 34 and I just Dutch braided my daughter’s hair for the first time! I’m so happy!

[@shaelynn687]

[@peggyeaton5647]

I like it because you are taking your time and doing your time talking about it

[@socialbutterfly4146]

Omg!’ That dutch side braid is so gorgeous

[@ReesieRoo1]

I can’t wait to try this when I get home from work! I appreciate the tip on not using a mirror because I agree, it does make it confusing!

[@alyssaswihart254]

Ughhhhhh in literally crying rn I CANTTTT DOOOO ITTTTT

[@lex_explained]

OMS I feel you. I. Feel. You on another level!!!!!

[@ellyluquenmusic7798]

[@kelseyhouser5269]

Believe in your self

[@victoriakotyk6306]

Abby, you're the first person that taught me how to braid. I found you back in 2014, and ever since then braiding and styling hair has been my passion. Thank you so much for making these videos! It's helped me so much in improving my skills and finding new ones. Love you so much, and thank you for including the church in your videos!👌

[@xxticklexmexpinkxx]

This video was life changing! I have watched soooo many videos on how to Dutch braid my own hair and have been unsuccessful every time. This one worked! Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom 🤓

[@arizonatimpson2966]

OMG!! I did a dutch braid for the first time! Thankyou so much for the help! your awesome!

[@taylorkaupelis4907]

I am so glad I found your channel! I haven't been able to successfully french/dutch braid until now. I love how you explain everything in detail. I was having a hard time with positioning my hands and how to add in hair without losing the braid. Now, I'm able to do some cute hairstyles for myself and daughter (:

[@Twistmepretty]

You're literally giving me life right now! I'm so so happy you're doing it with us!

[@piperchatwin6528]

[@coletteferguson4318]

Thank you so much!!!! My sister watched your video so many times and learned how to do it very well and I ask her to Dutch braid mine and she sent me the video so I could learn how to do it. Ive only done it twice and I can see that it’s improving each time 😁 thank you so much 😊

[@Dozenpigeon]

I’m loving the challenge. I’m refining my braiding skills and definitely upping my hair game. My hair is much longer than it has ever been and my go to has been a plain ponytail or messy bun. I’ve received compliments on my Dutch braids that look fantastic with my fine hair. Thank you so much for putting this challenge together

[@jaymearenas7953]

Thank you Abby!!! Been trying to learn how to Dutch braid for years and you’ve made it soooo easy. Took a few tries but I Got It 😃 Love all your easy hair tutorials and I’ve gotten so many compliments thanks to you...Love them all...Thanks again, love you girl 💖

[@asillygiraffeful]

This is the most helpful tutorial I've ever seen! Thank you!! I seriously suck at Dutch braids and this helped so much!

[@dianacolala5777]

I love your way of demonstrating these styles. Between your excellent directions and slow motion/freeze frame of particular points of the style, even I can grasp the concepts. Glam on!

[@ThePumpingiron27]

My Dutch braids always end up turning into a French braid...but this is by far the easiest tutorial I have seen! Thank you!

[@SemekiIzuio]

Same. My hands have a mind of their own.

[@JenniferWagner0913]

I did it! I need some more practice but I'm happy with how this looks for Saturday hair. 😊

[@clarebingham6920]

this was soooo helpful thankyou i learned in like 2 days but it took me a while to master it!

[@claired1664]

Been trying to do this for ages, love this video. Just gotta keep practising now. Best tip ever about not looking in the mirror, really helped

[@alisonmadalinski747]

I am so glad I found your channel! You explain so clearly! I think i might finally be able to learn how to braid!

[@sarahschroeder4739]

I love the different braid video comparisons! I love the Bobbi pin pancake tip.

[@christinadipinto6109]

You. Are. Amazing!! I'm righhhhttt in the middle of getting ready to move across the country so I basically have no time to go through the series right now (even watching this video I'm multitasking lol), BUT, I cannot wait until I can actually do it! I've been wanting to learn how to braid forever and I just LOVE your teaching style!

[@mrsbreezylynn]

Lord have mercy. I can braid any braid I want to on other people's hair but, not my own. Having trouble with finger placement.

[@olgamorales1038]

Same

[@Noriko1988]

That's exacly my problem too! The result just becomes one terrible mess of tangled hair and fingers when I try even the regular french braid 😢

[@kristenrice7036]

Sabrina Hodge same girlfriend

[@cwest8495]

I am the SAME WAY & it is soo frustrating lol

[@kimwaguespack2530]

[@Legend0222]

I can do regular and French braids but can’t seem to be able to do waterfall braids, your explainations/finger placement are wonderful are you going to do the waterfall braid at any point?

[@SanctuaryofSoulsLost]

This video was so helpful! Now that I've successfully done this hairstyle, I feel like I can tackle any other hairstyle if I practice enough. Even more proud of myself because my hair is curly and I managed to do the dutch braid. my arms hurt but it's worth it

[@monkey28855]

Ah! This is my favorite too!!! I hold mine different than you so maybe I should try your way for fun! I am just loving the challenge so far!

[@Twistmepretty]

[@n1ghtshqde559]

[@laurajara7970]

I did the two dutch braids yesterday and got lots of compliments! My question is that I have little fine whispy hairs at my temples, so when I start my braids they don't start exactly right. What do you do about this, and how do you grow in your hair there fuller? Thanks!

[@sana_zx]

I learnt dutch braiding by this video, Thanku

[@illestjoanne]

[@lankanleopard]

[@DJG-fh4bf]

You explained it very well, trying this for My hair tomorrow, fingers crossed☺️

[@nevaehb753]

I did not know how to Dutch braid and this video helped a lot thank you😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@Dancerphiliac]

Is it easier to braid hair if you straighten it first?

[@Emma-279]

Ooohhh, the first braid you did, I just recently taught myself how to do. 😊 I did not know what it was called though, thank you.

[@ellamargaret5212]

[@ellyluquenmusic7798]

New subscriber here! I can’t wait to try them. I do it better on my girls then on myself ughh so frustrating but practice makes perfect lol how weird is that one time I was doing the Dutch braid why watching tv and I looked in the mirror and it was perfect but I look in the mirror and I’m a mess 😳😏 Weird.

[@mssmith9227]

Thank you so so much!

[@beverlysantillano]

What’s the difference between a Dutch braid and a corn braid?

[@ivyvricella4763]

It’s literally a reverse French braid; if you can wrap your brain around that, and you can already do a French braid, then you can definitely do this:)

[@morgangoodnight2659]

can you make a video for very thick hair?

[@aliciamuniz2626]

Love this channel love the hair do so pretty

[@rheannashanholtz5980]
