I'm feeling this braid. Why do hair always play nice when you're about to go to bed. 😭

I want this hair in the morning. And I bet you, it won't play nice this morning.

Secure Sports Braid

While braids tend to be a more secure hairstyle than a regular ponytail or twist, when doing sports, braids still manage to fall out.  Today’s tutorial is for a new type of braid that stays much more secure than both a regular and fishtail braid.  The style uses a braiding technique which I would describe as a cross between a normal braid and a fishtail.  Be sure to try this style out, and let me know if there are any new hairstyles you would like to see in the future!

Materials:

1) Brush

2) Large Hair Tie

3) Small Hair Tie

Procedure:

1) Begin by brushing through your hair.

2) Pull your hair into a ponytail at the location of your choice.

3) Split your hair into two sections - one being significantly larger than the other.  

4) On the outer edge of the large section, separate a piece of hair.  

5) Cross this piece over the large section and into your other hand.

6) Twist the piece under the small section created previously.

7) Drop the old small section.  The piece you have brought over has now become your new small section.

8) Repeat steps 4-7 down the hair.

9) Once you get to the bottom, tie off and finalize with hairspray.
