  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • -Hey, everyone.

  • I'm Mindy, from Cute Girls Hairstyles.

  • And today, I'm here with Kamri.

  • -Hi.

  • -And we are going to show you how

  • to do what we're calling the loop waterfall braid.

  • This is really great.

  • A girl named Bethany send this picture in to me.

  • So thank you, Bethany, for the idea.

  • We figured it out, and here we go.

  • Now, to begin this hairstyle, I've

  • parted her hair in the middle, just in the front,

  • and then tried to comb so there's

  • no obvious part in the back.

  • And we have just run a straightener over her hair.

  • She's pretty straight anyway.

  • Now, her hair is really silky and fine,

  • which can be difficult to do this kind of hairstyle,

  • because it can loosen up and slip out.

  • So what I have done is just taken a little bit of my Redken

  • Wax Blast spray wax and just barely sprayed

  • a tiny little bit on the tops of her hair.

  • This is going to help me as I pull her hair through.

  • So if you're also a fine haired girl,

  • you might want to try this trick.

  • If you have a curlier texture, it's

  • going to be very natural to do this,

  • because it will hold and grip itself.

  • So now, I'm going to go back.

  • I'm going to leave a little piece right in front, because I

  • want this to just fall by itself.

  • I'm going to pick up a section of hair right here.

  • So I'm leaving probably an inch, inch and a half of hair,

  • just to frame her face.

  • And I'm picking up a pretty good piece of hair.

  • And then, I'm also going to take just a little bit of-- this

  • is-- you guys are always asking me

  • what I'm using-- Jonathan's Dirt Texturizing Paste,

  • but you can use any pomade.

  • Just run it through the hair a little bit.

  • Again, this is all just helping us keep the hair together

  • and not have too many crazy flyaways

  • as we're manipulating this hairstyle.

  • Now, I'm going to take this piece,

  • I'm going to take my two fingers, my pointer

  • and my middle.

  • I'm going to put them in here and wrap the hair around them,

  • and then just flip it.

  • So you can see the shape I'm forming by doing that.

  • So the hair goes down, and then creates a loop,

  • and this bottom piece is ultimately

  • going to fall straight down.

  • So I'll show you again, one more time.

  • Two fingers, just wrap it around, and then just

  • twist your fingers and it creates that looped shape,

  • like this.

  • Once you've done that, I'm going to hold my fingers through it.

  • So you can see, I'm holding that bottom piece with my thumb.

  • My two fingers are still in between that loop.

  • I'm going to go back here behind her head

  • and pick up another pretty good sized piece of hair.

  • And again, with my left hand this time,

  • I'm going to take a little texturizing paste

  • and run it down those strands.

  • Or you can use your wax here, too, either one.

  • Now, I'm going to grab that piece in between my fingers

  • and I'm going to pull it through that loop.

  • You can see.

  • So I'm pulling it through the loop,

  • and then I'm going to go ahead and twist it and create

  • another loop.

  • And in the process, I've, of course, dropped

  • this last strand, right here.

  • And just to hold this hairstyle a little bit tighter

  • while we're manipulating the first few pieces,

  • I'm going to have Kam hang on to that first one.

  • So I'm going to go ahead put my fingers back

  • through that second loop.

  • Hold that bottom piece again with my thumb.

  • Pick up another piece of hair.

  • Make sure you're getting from the top wherever you want.

  • Use a little texturizing paste, pomade.

  • Run it down.

  • And again, pull that hair through and give it a twist.

  • Now, don't worry if you're getting big loops like this,

  • because you can come back later and adjust it

  • just by tugging on the end.

  • But you can start to see the shapes

  • that we're forming as we're doing this.

  • So again, I'm going to pick up a piece of hair.

  • We have a little texturizing paste.

  • Just run it down.

  • Grab that piece, pull it through, and give it a twist.

  • Again, I'm not going to worry if it's huge right now, because I

  • can go back and adjust them in a few minutes.

  • And we're going to create more loops.

  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • When you've done your last loop, what I

  • do-- you can see my last loop right here.

  • Since you don't want this funny loop just

  • hanging out in the middle of nowhere,

  • I go ahead and pull that strand all the way through.

  • And then what I'm going to do is let it fall through,

  • and I'm going to take a small bobby pin

  • and I'm just going to pin it.

  • And I'm going to hide the pins as best I can.

  • You might see them a little bit.

  • I'm going to cross the bobby pins

  • so they form a nice, secure little hold right there.

  • And you can always pull this hair up and over a little bit,

  • or let that strand fall through right there

  • and hide them for you.

  • So that anchors that last piece.

  • And then you can go back and adjust these loops

  • to where you like them.

  • I don't want them to be too tight,

  • but I don't want them to be so loose they're falling, either.

  • So when you get them the way you like them-- for me,

  • that's about like that-- then I come back over

  • to this first piece that we originally started with.

  • And again, you don't want to leave this funky piece just

  • hanging out doing it's thing.

  • So I'm going to take this bobby pin.

  • I'm going to reach underneath that first little loop,

  • and I'm going to secure that first piece

  • with a couple bobby pins, as well.

  • And again, we're just trying to hide them as best we can.

  • And we let that hair right there just hide them for us.

  • And then, the rest of it falls down.

  • And we're finished.

  • And let's do the final spin.

  • So this hairstyle is not going to be

  • one that's great for athletics or lots of physical activity.

  • This is just a pretty hairstyle, that's

  • so beautiful that you get tons of attention

  • over, because its gorgeous in your hair, right, Kamri?

  • -Yep.

  • -Another way to do it, just as another tip,

  • would be to try doing it wet if you have really fine hair.

  • Style it wet, and then it will dry looking like this,

  • but the wetness of the hair helps hole

  • those twists and loops a little bit better for you, too.

  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • -And you turn it to the side, and it's

  • this fun accent braid just running

  • through the ponytail that really pops.

  • But it adds a lot of dynamic to the hairstyle, which I love.

  • [INTERPOSING VOICES]

  • -You got this.

  • -Hat off, hat off.

  • -Don't mess anything up.

  • [INAUDIBLE]

  • -Yeah.
