[@Oliver-js7it]

You forgot the 1% of us that is thanking her because she taught us how to draw a braid xD

[@robloxcousins2339]

O Oliver oh yah well 101% then.

[@sianerb9360]

Could you do a tutorial on noses and one on hands?

[@jessicushenberry81]

Yasss... I can't draw either one of those, especially hands

[@indecisivearts7075]

yas

[@cadenceroy6686]

+Sian Erb Oh my gosh I suck at drawing noses!

[@sianerb9360]

Cadence Roy same though!

[@2Awesomekids2]

+Sian Erb oh gawsh yes hands

[@madisonaustin9394]

I noticed on the Elsa drawing that you used a thicker braid. Elsa is meant to have thicker hair because the animators gave her somewhere around 400,000 individual hairs when an average human has around 100,000. Anna has less than Elsa, but not too less. I think she's around 350,000, but I don't exactly remember how many she has, so correct me if I'm wrong. Basically, what this boils down to is when you draw animated characters, it helps if you do a little backup research for a reference. I don't know if you knew this, but I think it was cool either way.

[@jolantakrysztofiak5188]

Woahhhhh

[@babyandstuffsdotcom]

What happened here?

[@JellieBee]

Holy nuts I can't believe that other one is two years old!!! I remember when you uploaded it ahaha. It's funny how tutorials are kinda timeless but your artwork gets better and it's embarassing, I have a few old tuts on dA and I'm like woooow no. This is great though, I feel like drawing braids now :D

[@dariyaibraim2286]

True. When I look back at my drawings a few months ago, i'm like omg no no

[@hollybee1633]

Hehe hello jelly BEE xD

[@yourlocaltrashandraps5453]

Morgana Amelia / Jellie Bee try making things easier I did your torial and it was a fail

[@n1na2]

i cant believe this comment is 4 years old

[@alexandria3653]

Now it’s about 7!

[@quazifrog]

I was making a Queen Elsa cake for my little girls birthday and had no idea how to make the braid. This tutorial was clear, easy to follow, and gave me help I needed to make the cake look fantastic. Thank you so much!

[@sarahquilty7857]

That old video was my bible- this is my dream come true :P literally I used to always draw braids in my notebooks and people would be like "oh where'd u learn that" and I'd be like "oh... Well there's this awesome you tuber BAYLEE..." Lol :D

[@kawannahardy2924]

I just started watching your videos, as I've recently become interested in art, and I'd like to say how much I appreciate your style of videos. They all seem to teach as you go through your steps, as opposed to just having your viewers watch you. Tfs your talent!

[@EvaLoveLoverofPonies]

THANK YOU! I have been trying and failing at braids and you just made it so simple! Thank you so much!

[@cartooningclub]

Very nice tutorial. Love it.

[@AsianLiviv7X]

OMG thank you so much, I'm very proud of my braids! I just wanted to say how much I love your videos, your more fun and positive to watch, and it's helping my improve my drawings. The first video I watched was the blindfold challenge with Elsa, and I was very interested in the copic markers, so explored your channel. I ended up watching them for advice and just for fun, and I'm noticing how much I improved. And for the copic markers, they are on my wishlist for Christmas and my birthday! Thank you so much!

[@felislee5278]

please do a tutorial on how to draw french braids! :3

[@evelyns3804]

Felis Lee well, im helping you a bit **cough** 2 years later... But the way I do it is i just draw the braids but the sides arent connected to each other, and are blended into the head

[@SheaWolf1016]

I love, love, love this tutorial. I have a character who has a braid off to her left shoulder, and I never really draw her, because I could never do the braid. Thank you sooooo much for sharing your techniques!!

[@Tmastertr]

lol you used the pencil!!! From the po box video!!!!

[@BayleeJae]

Yep! I had to switch to the mechanical one for the precision work though. I'm sure the pink pencil will make more appearances! Same goes for the Frozen pencil I received. :)

[@mbkongalor]

Baylee Jae Baylee what kind of Mechanical Pencil were you using? Is that a Rotring?

[@tomriddle1142]

mbkongalor I think she has a video on her channel that is a mechanical pencil review. I don't know which channel though.

[@sunhviibes0002]

+Baylee Jae lol I was using a mechanical

[@kellicat123]

I love the way you draw braids! The look so realistic! Your also a great teacher!

[@beckycarmichael1640]

Finally found someone who can draw so good that are left handed

[@hopelessromantic7211]

THANK YOU for this~ All your tips are very helpful. Braids are horrible for me, so this really helped me thank you~

[@sugarkjh4372]

do you think you could do a tutorial on how you draw faces? such as facial features and ears.

[@sparkhuntershq7274]

Chloeplier Sophie chan has a GREAT video on that! I definitely recommend it!

[@Uniklymade1]

I just drew a braid from your 1st tutorial, my braid looked pretty neat on Elsa from Frozen. Thank you for the braid tips.

[@oliviaronca]

can you make a tutorial on how to draw arms and legs well. I really need help with that😜😊

[@raileyweber181]

Same

[@lactiennguyen184]

Me too

[@bethanyshufflebotham874]

Yess!!!!!

[@c_ooflez526]

Olivia Ronca me too lol😅

[@KAGOMESAMA13]

I learned how to draw braids because of your old video! The zigzag technique makes it so much easier. I'm happy you did this update tho because I did think the other braids were super stiff. Seriously it's a brilliant trick

[@searece]

Thank you so much for explaining about the tightness of the braid and the angles of the middle! That is going to help me so much! Haha, when you were talking about the tapering at the end of the braid, after the elastic, it reminded me of when I had long hair and would braid it. It always divided into two ends, and I always got annoyed at it. Good times.

[@rajnig.1077]

NOW I REMEMBER HOW I FOUNF OUT ABOUT YOU! THE 1ST BRAIDING TUTORIAL VIDEO!

[@twiggyeyess]

ME TOO

[@linalyonic]

Same here

[@lauv3871]

the first time I drew a braid was when I was at a restaurant with my family and I looked at a small braid i had on and thought, "I wanna draw this." So I did the zig-zag and made my first braid.

[@sophiavelez1440]

good thing I learned angles

[@sophiavelez1440]

learned about angles i think

[@hex764]

Yeah me too Xp

[@sugarghast]

Thank goodness for Baylee! I wanted to use braids in my InkTober drawing today and I remembered she did this! 😄

[@cherrytimothy4273]

[@nkelly5851]

I draw braids a lot, and I've been a fan of braids for a long time, I'd already drawn someone like Elsa before it ever came out, I like the way they animated her hair. Anyway, I liked your tutorial, I've never thought of doing zigzags before, great job, keep practicing and enjoy it!

[@jessicaperez-rs7tk]

Did u take classes for this because omg you said things were terrible and noticed the tiny little parts and I'm here like ITS PERFECT. Omg

[@derplord3296]

[@duchesshunter3006]

You're supposed to sketch it first.

[@beautifulkitty3521]

:-)

[@atlasvellichor]

Sarah Matheson You'll get it eventually, never try to do exactly what the video says, put your own twist to it to make it feel more like something you would do.

[@hanaaarts9567]

Omg i really need to subscribe.You are the beat drawer of all time!!Hope that you find more ideas for drawings.Byee.

[@anaelenasmith1705]

[@Kailynn2230]

[@sophiajohnston1326]

[@marich8356]

This is just GREAT! I just came by to say thank you for the tutorial. I saw the other one you made and it was great start for me because I find braids very difficult (I'm a beginner student) and now I can finally do it. This video complements the other one very well.

[@husbahussain7105]

Oh my god I love your channel Can you do a video on nose,hands,eyes and lips

[@titasbhattacharyya]

[@dj04productions51]

I never thought drawing braids could be sooo easy!!! THX!!!!!!!!

[@eggstronauts69]

I usually do acute angles for loose braids and it looks more stretched out at the sides rather than the bottom, which I like. I love your drawing, both of your braid videos are in my watch later so I can find it XD

[@GrinderMagee]

Baylee you made my braids look instantly better with this simple tutorial thanks!!

[@mintsparkles3317]

baylee turned drawing braids into math.

[@equesdeventusoccasus]

This is the best braid tip that I have ever seen.

[@Orcagirl54]

whenever I watch Baylee's tutorials I just feel like trash cuz I'm never gonna be as good as her

[@Amanda-gp7hx]

thoughts at 1:47 I did not come here to learn about angles

[@pigeonpartytime877]

Amanda Cat it can be counted as educational...

[@samanthanightingale8548]

[@giaonguyen3799]

[@einavlewenstein6413]

I'm right handed, but I speak Hebrew and the writing is flipped, you write from the right to the left so the leads also disturb me. I get you
