Thank you so much for this. My wife recently left me and my kids, and now I need to learn to be mom and dad for them. I've never had to do my daughter's hair before because her mom always did. This was very easy to follow.

Mrs Bray will love this French Braid hairstyle because she not only have long red curly/crimpy hair but also she wears pink, even though her favourite colour is jade emerald green, and I can't wait to recreate this hairstyle on her long red curly/crimpy hair she will love it！

Thank you so very much, have watched other videos in the past . This one was so clear and just the right speed for me to catch up. For the first time ever I did a french braid on my twin 7 year old daughters and they are beyond happy and proud of their mommy. You and your daughter make a great team!! :)

This is such a great tutorial. I am 35 and have never been able to French braid my own hair. After watching your video, I was able to do it really well the first time I tried! For some reason I think it helped that I did not look in the mirror.

[@alexo9430]

Fantastic! I've watched tons of videos before this and this is the first one I saw where it gave easy to follow directions for hand placement while braiding. Thank you. I was finally able to do it after a couple of tries! I subscribed because of it. Keep it up!

[@user-vo7lt2le4c]

[@zoemichellebradshaw377]

You aren't actually supposed to comb curly hair. Just keep it hydrated and use your fingers.

[@19PurposebyDesgn81]

I did finally did it! I watched so many other videos and still couldn’t get it. Now I know what to do. My daughters hair is very long down her back and curly so I had the brush and smooth every strand as I added it to the braid. I can finally do it after finding your video 😊. It was seeing your hands up close and how you hold the hair with it that helped me. Thank you sooo much.

[@swarakalariya6803]

If that's your daughter , I wanted to tell you that your hair is very very very very very very very very very Pretty and her natural highlights look so beautiful ...

[@callumthatcher3778]

thank you so much! Your tutorial is so much easier to follow than others I have viewed. I like how you stop and show how to hold the hair and where to place your fingers as you do the braid. You have been very helpful.

[@foxfacedninja3601]

Pretty Hair is Fun - Girls Hairstyle Tutorials thanks so much

[@ela5746]

You are the first person i've seen on youtube to braid hair the way I do it: Crossing the hair over first, holding the 3 pieces in one hand and with the other hand adding hair into the already crossed over section. It's so much easier (i find) adding hair with one free hand rather than bringing a piece over and adding it to that or crossing it over after hair is added.

[@Prettyhairisfun]

Well...great minds think alike....;)

[@paigec8893]

I wish I had her hair, my hair is thick and poofy! Whenever I do a French braid I look like a lion because my hair is also very frizzy and it sticks up in all directions. Agh!

[@lakeishamacerllerena4293]

Thank you so much. I've been wanting to french braid my daughter's hair for ages. I've watched alot of video but yours was the easiest to follow. I did it fir the first time today and though it wasn't as neat as you made it, I think it came out pretty well. The only thing I realized for me is my daughter's hair is so thick, it's better for me to do it while it's still wet. Thank you again for helping me learn to do this.
