  • Step 1: Put your hair into two, low pony tails using clear elastics. You'll want to make sure you get your two ponytails as close together as possible.
  • Step 2: Braid both pony tails. I also pulled out pieces in this step for more voluminous braids.
  • Step 3 & 4: Take one of the braids, and cross it over to the opposite side. This will give you a seamless finish in the back, seeming as if you braided all the way through. Secure the braid using bobby pins.
  • Step 4 & 5: Repeat steps 3 & 4, except with other braid. Secure with bobby pins.

Tip: When crossing the braids on top, make sure to lay them side by side, not on top of each other. Tuck any loose ends into the braids using bobby pins. I used my custom, 24" extensions to achieve this look.
