[@_yurrrrr]

i gave up and started crying

[@hoolihoop-gw5ur]

You are literally so me

[@adriennbertok1734]

Me tooooo

[@Obvi_aaryn]

I really did every time and I still can’t💀😭

[@TheBettyj0]

Oh no!! Try practicing in a time where you’re not getting ready to leave. Meaning you can take your time.. work through it. If you start to get upset walk away for a minute! I don’t know about you my hair is LONG and THICK 😬🤭 my arms get tired 😂😂 I have to take breaks!! 🤷🏻‍♀️ no shame! Plus I get frustrated when my hair isn’t cooperating and I have a tendency to chop it off.

[@love5306]

Me too

[@AestheticallyJess_]

I have been trying to figure out how to do this basically my entire life. This video made everything click!

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Yay! So happy to hear that. It’s the same steps over and over! Once you get the hand placement right, then you’ll be a pro! ❤

[@meganmassey2017]

Me too! Whole life! I can do it on my daughter but not myself.

[@islasmagicalgamerworld7650]

I new how to do it in my American girl doll but not myself

[@User-v2r3j]

This is the only video I’ve watched that I actually understand

[@amberjay84]

I still can't figure it out 😢

[@BillieLeigh-n6v]

I’ve never been so angry at my hair I wanna rip it out

I’ve literally always never been able to dutch braid and have mental breakdowns LOL. But anyways I’ve tried so many videos and none of them have worked except for this! It took so many videos for it to finally click! Anyone who is looking at comments let me give you some tips because my aunt is literally a pro and this is what she gave me. 1. Start with SMALL PEICES. I’m talking small or else the braid will start far back. 2. If you want it to go straight back do as demonstrated in the video (2nd option) because I didn’t want except the fact that that was the only why it was gonna go straight back cause it looked hard BUT IT REALLY ISNT IM TELLING. 3. I know you probably don’t want to hear this but PRACTICEEEEEEEE.

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Thanks for the comment! I agree with you and your aunt! You definitely have to practice! That's key!! I didn't learn to dutch braid over night. At 19, I practiced infront of a mirror over and over, failing many times, every week. One day, it clicked! I hope the same for everyone reading this. HUGS!

[@AutumnRose17543]

@@LaineyMarieBeauty new sub! ❤️❤️

[@torresjaime1982]

I love it

[@ogsistows]

Thanks for the tips!! I’ve always never been able to do it because it seemed too hard but now I’m going to do it when I get out of the shower

[@janessaxoxo]

I can do it only with dripping wet hair so after I take a shower I’m gonna do it, because I practiced and now I know how to do it ( I was just having a mental breakdown cus i COULDN’T do it)

[@shabamflam]

Literally I could cry! After YEARS of thinking I'd never get it, I got it on the first try after watching your video! Thank you! I can braid now!!!

[@shannonblum5545]

Omg yes! The arm breaks are essential. I usually do one side first and then tie the other side up, go do something else for a few minutes then come back to it to let my arms recover. Another tip is to do you less dominant side first so for me J do the left side first because the right side is naturally easier so I save that side for when my arms are more tired

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Yes! Gotta rest those arms!

[@devany7358]

Omg I thought I was the only one lol. Thank you

[@JaimeBush1]

I know this sounds dumb, but I swear I didn't realize how much hand placement was affecting my braids. I wanted the more "straight back" look, but couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong!! Thank yooooooou!!!! 🩷🩷🩷

[@brigittekassnel7469]

Seriously, for years I’ve been trying to figure this out and have NEVER found a tutorial that helped! You explained this perfectly!!! I think what works for me is braiding it from the side instead of trying to braid it from the top! Thank you!

[@Ddd-rp5yj]

I was about to cry doing this

[@Maiken2589]

I've tried to learn how to do this for many, many years now. (I'm about to turn 23). I've never been able to until I came over your video. Thank you so much for teaching me how to braid my favourite braids!

[@meganmassey2017]

I like how she combines the added piece with the piece she’s adding it to BEFORE she crosses it under. Not everyone does that. Hopefully this helps me get it. I love how she keeps repeating. I NEEEED that. So thank youuu! Anyone who doesn’t like it can just fast forward. ❤

[@TaylorsSwiftie-13TV]

Hi! I’m late but oh well. I watched so many tutorials on how to French or Dutch and they all made me want to rip my hair out and cry. But I came across yours and now I can Dutch braid! I still have to come back to start it off but you really helped me so thank you so much! I can’t wait to rock this hair style at the beach and this summer. Again tysm! You really helped me! 😊

[@TheLisamay380]

Your hair is beautiful! I have long thick hair and ALWAYS have such a hard time doing the Dutch braid on myself! Thanks for showing us these two variations. Both look great on you, although, I think I like the ones that you did second - straight back…even though I’m sure arms will BURN doing them!

[@booknerd2365]

You're a blessing! I have always wanted to braid my own hair because nobody around me knew how to. This tutorial helped me so much and now doing my hair for sports/work won't be as hard! Thank you so much!!

[@Funksinthehouse]

You really made it look more simple than others that have tried to explain. Ty, going to give it another try:) I like the first braids, where you can see them from the front.

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Thank you! Me too! I hope it helps. It just takes a little practice getting your hands right! ❤

[@mickiring7951]

I love the look of the ones that go straight back, but I have yet to actually be able to master those when doing my own hair. I can do the ones that run down the side because I use my mouth to old my hair so I don't have to always be holding three sections lol!

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Lol!! I use my mouth to hold hair with some hairstyles too. Whatever works!! Eventually you will get the hang of it! Keep practicing :) You've got this!

[@appleal1]

I like the ones that go straight back, especially for when I want to put it in a ponytail

[@emilylarimore127]

THANK YOU I've literally been trying to do these for YEARS and nothing worked until this video you're a lifesaver

[@thethriftyfawn]

I NEVER KNEW how to do the double dutch boxer braids that go to the BACK but have always wanted to!!! I regularly do the ones that go to "the side" but they just don't do it for me. I will ONE HUNDRED PERCENT be trying this out! Thank you SO MUCH Lainey! I subscribed yesterday evening, a few videos ago lol. Request if you haven't done so already, and I'll do my best to explain: sectioning the hair into THREE sections to make three boxer braids that go to the back- one in the middle and two at the sides! 😍 I'd like to try this both as an option for a new look, and to see what kind of heartless waves/curls it would make. But I don't have a clue how to section it out, and previously didn't know how to get the braids going to the back. I suppose even demonstrating the same three sections with the option of the braids going to the side would work too 😊

[@Anna-ow8rk]

Omg this is the ONLY video that helped me understand how to Dutch braid my own hair, I’ve been trying to learn how to braid since I was super young and your video is the only one that helped me. I can’t thank you enough!

[@jackchan5839]

This is literally the first tutorial put of I don't know 13? That was ACTUALLY helpful. You can't get it right first try you gotta keep trying ❤ thank you

[@sadie7997]

Thank you! It is stupid how long it took me to figure this out. Or even to find a video with an actual explanation!

[@Syntheticheart]

I never thought I’d be able to do these braids myself, when I saw what I’d done following this, I was so happy! Thank you

[@nutm3g12]

GUYS EXCLAIMER For those of you wanting to give up and rip your hair up, IT TAKES PRACTICE. It took me months to make mine look good enough to leave my house. It took lots of practice. But this video will help you, you just need to be willing to work for it.

[@PiggyBooty-b3m]

11 year old viewer this helped me even tho it looks bad I’ll get better thank you and also I love your makeup ❤

[@crazyc2341]

This video has helped me so much!! I’ve tried so hard doing dutch braids and i cannot tell you the endless amount of videos i’ve used but this! this one worked!! my hair looks fantastic and i owe it to you❤❤

[@ireneortiz5216]

girl i love you for this tutorial and it taught me for every night that i need to do it but im still gon act clueless infront of my mama cause that me and her bonding time

[@sn4pdr4g0ns]

Bahaha love that

[@camnangsong68]

This hairstyle is gorgeous and easy to do! Thanks! 💖

[@Latbirget]

That's so helpful. No one has ever explained that you get 2 effects by holding your arms differently. I've been doing the second one but I'll have a go at the first one now!

[@Tamara_R_Blodgett]

I like the braids that go straight back and close to your part. Tysm for showing both. 😁

[@LindySmith-f6k]

Thank you so much. This video was so helpful. I didn't try to figure out how to brighten my hair like this book. I wish I would have found your video About 10 years ago anyways. Thank you so much. You're very helpful now, I understand. I will get tons of videos on how to do this. And nobody explained enough for me to understand you. Explain everything right on point. Thank you so much. I'm going to try to do this now and send you a video. What it turns out to look like. And thank you one more time, call your video. It was so helpful thank you so much

[@zuhaib460]

2:12: starting point 😊

[@r1ssa_11]

My hair is super difficult to work with and I’ve been trying to Dutch braid for a while. This was the first tutorial to actually be helpful (thanks bro) 🦋

[@Ayesha_Khanam_A.R]

The satisfaction in her voice and video ❤

[@Itsyogirlkins]

I have been doing French braids my whole life and I hated doing it on the but you tutorial on braiding on top of your head helped me so much

[@melaniedownes1752]

Happy New Year! I learned how to do Dutch braid! I can’t wait to learn how to do it on my own hair. This is easy it’s like French braid but a reverse

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Yes! If you can French braid then you can definitely Dutch braid! ❤❤❤thank you for the comment!

[@Woedy818]

You did a really good job explaining. I can’t figure out how to braid from the side only back. Also I have Alot of hair and sometimes it gets floppy at the bottom so I like your tip about adding all the hair before a certain point! I will def try that

[@priscillaaguilar5120]

Thank you so much for this video! I’ve watched millions of tutorials but this one helped me so much

[@busdrummer]

My God , this girl is a freaking legend 🙏

[@MADDY-94927H]

Omg your the best, I’ve been looking for a tutorial the whole day and you were the only one that managed to teach me. Thank you so much!!

[@vintiladiana-georgiana8533]

thank you! i watched many tutorials, yours is the best!

[@hannahr2840]

This is the most helpful video ever!! I’ve never been able to plait anything apart from a simple braid but with this video I successfully did a Dutch braid first try

[@sonnysepicuriouseats]

Omg thank you ! This is the only video that has worked for me. 🙏

[@Sara-xj2ef]

I like the ones that go to back,, and normally when I do this hairstyle I do the same method but instead of braiding till the bottom of my ear I twist my hair bc idk how to braid it from the top and then when I reach the tip of my ear I just do a regular 3 strand braid ,, and I rlly found this video helpful so tysm 🤍🤍

[@briannapastor188]

This was so helpful! I liked the back braid better than the side braid. 😍

[@ramonalegarda7180]

I love the ones on the side, and you made the best for me. And I thank you.

[@tessgrutter9893]

Finger placement explanation please! Your video has helped me soo much though no other video has done it for me ! People never explain things like how to hold ur arms and tips like that

[@melaniedownes1752]

I like the ones that go to the side! They fit with you on the side so well!

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Thank you so my g😊❤

[@melaniedownes1752]

You are welcome! Also I love the 4 Dutch braids on you! Plus the upside down braids are my favorite on you! You should do this more often

[@sarahpalik7746]

This was great! I always have issues with my braids starting too far back, this help me get it going right at my hairline.

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Yay! So happy to hear it helped!

[@candacesmith321]

I like the ones on the side best!! So cute.

[@nataliesheff4092]

This is a great tutorial and easy to follow !! Thanks for this ! Maybe a French rope braid, fishtail, or infinity tutorial like this would be something you'd like to do. Thanks!

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Sure thing! Thank you for the comment 😊❤

[@Ria-2013]

Thanks. I could do Dutch braids but not as good as this. I could never figure out how to do it but this video helped me and now I can do Dutch braids perfectly. ❤

[@joycewilburn2311]

I like the ones going back I think Dutch braiding is so hard I have not yet mastered it yet but this video helped a lot thank you 🌸⭐️🌸

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

I like those too because you can see them from the back! Thank you for the comment 😊

[@Ralph2023_1A]

Turned out very well I think. Love the handlebars at the end.

[@freedom4454]

Thank God for this tutorial! Now, I understand how to do this close to the hair part line.

[@susanhenley8240]

Reminds me of when I used to braid my daughter's hair every morning for school. Wearing a scarf to bed helps salvage the braids for a 2nd or even a 3rd day of wearing.

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Yes! I need to remember to wear a scarf. I slept in my braids and forgot to cover them, so they were super frizzy and I had to take them out! Thanks for the comment 😊

[@ars0n_66]

Although my part is absolutely atrocious, I learned to Dutch braid my hair, Thank you!

[@madeleine774]

Also, I can't tell you how many times I've watched the video about your random Amazon finds. If you have more of those videos I'll totally watch them

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

I'm always up for amazon finds! I will keep that in mind!!

[@tessgrutter9893]

Finger placement explanation please! Your video has helped me soo much though no other video has done it for me !

[@christinadipinto]

Cute! I personally like the look of the braids that go down the back because your highlights looks so pretty on the sides that way! 😊

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

I do too! They're comfier too. Thank you :)

[@suzescoo]

Literally the best tutorial! I was able to actually braid my hair 💗💗

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

YAY!!! Thank you!!💗

[@Julievanetten]

Okay thank u for this this is the first time I did it🎉 as a 15yo this was such a good explanation thank you❤❤

[@humanrightsareforEVERYONE]

I have to be at my sisters grad in an hour! Hope this works!! 🫶

[@JaylynnJay-gj4zh]

This helped so much My cousin is wonderfull at this you made ot so much easier then my cousin explained it I love it thank you

[@nazatsakellaropoulou7110]

Happy new year dear 😊 I prefer the one that it goes back, in my opinion it's prettier. Much of love to you and your beautiful family from Greece 😍

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Thank you so much! Wishing you a happy and healthy new year! ❤

[@BlueOshawatt]

Your explanation on the steps helped so much!! QwQ TY!

[@nansqui8416]

BRO PMG THIS HELPED ME SO MUCH I FINALLY GOT IT

[@alyssasdailylife1333]

I’ve been trying to figure this out since six years and I’m still and I’m still struggling a lot

[@gabivanderree7772]

Tried it for the First time! I thought it would be so hard but withyour explanation its very doable :)

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Yay! Thank you so much :)

[@mariad.rubioguerrero3559]

Thank you so much This really helped me understand how to do my braid. May God be with you. Bye.

[@lizmcneil5617]

I really like how detailed in explaining what you are doing. Thank you! My hair growth is a work in progress and is a little past the middle of my back. It's a bit fluffy so I add a tad of olive oil in it which smooths it some.

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Great tip!! And thank you so much😊

[@kaylaknight932]

Girl you make that look so easy! Lol

[@All-together-we-stand]

I LOVE THIS VIDEO THANK YOU SOOO MUCH This helped find the perfect hairstyle for my last day of school thank you!

Happy New year Lainey! May it be a good one for you and your loved ones

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Thank you! Wising you a happy and healthy 2023!

[@marymorvant2813]

I prefer the one that goes straight back - however I think due to my age the side one will be easier to achieve. I love dutch braids and reverse french braids. They are similar I think?

[@qwertyqwert2772]

yours is the only video that makes any sense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@danielmelton8807]

I like the braid going back ...just wanted to say you're the reson I know hair lol😊

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Awe that makes me so happy! Thank you!!💗

What is your favorite hair style

[@celestesantillan-hidalgo1571]

THIS HELPED ME SO SO MUCH TYSM! ❤❤❤❤

[@shawnab8484]

I’ll definitely have to try this in my daughters hair, because I definitely can not do my own. 😂It’s amazing how you make it so perfect and do your own. Super talented! ❤️ and super beautiful ❤️

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

If you can do it on your daughter’s hair then you can do it on your own! Just takes a bit of practicing and you’ll get the hang of it!! Thanks for the comment 😊❤

[@JasmineGhutarora]

That is so pretty. I prefer the shot down back one! My arms just hurt alot. lollllllll

[@vanessaarnell]

Thank you for showing both ways. I have always done mine the second way you showed us. I was always wondering how women got them to the side like that. I think they are so cute.

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Thank you so much 😊❤

[@MJBStories]

Gorgeous as ever! I kind of prefer the side ones because they look more neat and tidy, with a little quirkiness! I'm actually thinking of having my hair cut short! I know, big shock! Lol. But whatever I do, I will still love and support your videos! Xx

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Awe! Short hair is fun! I wish I had short hair to try new styles! ❤

[@HayleighWilliams_62]

Thank you so much I learned how to do it immediately

[@Chauhanlix]

Could you please do a tutorial on how to part hair? Lol I'm a dummy when parting my hair 😂

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

I’m so bad at parting my hair. It’s a struggle 😂when I tell you my husband parts my hair for me, he really does! Lol

[@Itztocahana_654]

Thank you so much I have been trying to do this for a long time and this video really helped me Thanks 😊!!!!!!

[@bellarod7422]

Amazing tutorial- got it my third try. Thank you so much!!!!❤

[@devidevatha]

I like the ones that go back.😊

[@leasy13]

[@isabelle-ki4ke]

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

So happy to hear that! ❤

[@sagelynncarnate-gallarde1260]

love this please keep posting these these are very helpful ❤

[@annamakstenieks511]

I literally just tried them and they are so bad but they still look like dutch braids so thats good enough for me

[@charushekhar1148]

Do you think you could maybe do more videos on knotted braids/ponytails?

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

For sure! A knotted hairstyles video sounds fun 😊❤

[@sagelynncarnate-gallarde1260]

❤❤❤ thank you so much it helped me braid myself!!

[@jdajackson5404]

You are a blessing!!!!

[@aubreywatson11]

i get so upset because i understand how to do it but adding sections never works for me, they always get knotted or i lose my original strands and it's just so annoying!

[@vas.6]

thank youuuuuu! i needed this

[@NotGemma.]

For the people who are first starting…start with the side one,for you’re hands to get used to the feeling then start going back!!

[@sannahnasaar6497]

The only video that helped ❤
