Finishing Touches To A Dutch Braid

Dutch braids are similar to French braids. The Dutch braid uses the same 3 sections of hair and is woven in a similar fashion. The difference is that it is braided backwards so the braid sits on top of the hair. Cornrows are smaller versions of the Dutch braid. Finishing touches add that extra cleanliness to the braid.


Instructions


1. Braid all the hair. Braid small cornrows or a single large Dutch braid. Finish the braid and add a hair band to the end. See the eHow article "Dutch Braid."


2. Add a finishing product to your hands. Rub your hands together and begin to gently wipe the hair with the product. Start near the hairline. Move in the direction toward the braid.


3. Use a small toothed comb to get bumps out. Start near the bump and pull the comb toward the braid. Pull the comb over the bump and no further. The hair should fall back into place.


4. Cover the hair band holding the braid in place. Hold a piece of the hair band up and grab a longer strand of hair coming out of the braid. Wrap the longer strand of hair around the top of the hair band. Tuck the end back into the hair band you are holding in the opposite hand. Hide this juncture underneath the braid.


5. Spray a holding spray and you are finished.
