  • -Hi, everyone.

  • I'm Mindy from Cute Girls Hairstyles.

  • Today we're going to demo for you

  • a hairdo I'm calling the double waterfall braid.

  • (SINGING) Double waterfall across the sky.

  • Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.

  • It's so intense.

  • So some of you will get that joke, some of you won't.

  • So it's a really great hairdo that I like a lot.

  • It's kind of a fun twist from our original waterfall braid.

  • So the first thing you need to be able to do

  • is the waterfall braid, in general.

  • So if you haven't already learned

  • how to do just the regular waterfall, go back

  • and watch my other video and I'll put a little link to it

  • up here somewhere and you can go and learn how to do this

  • because we're using the same technique.

  • Now, if you look at her hair, I've

  • already done the waterfall braid just all the way.

  • I've done it on this side and then on the site

  • and I put an elastic in the back connecting the two braids.

  • In this hairdo, because you're doing the double waterfall,

  • it is going to take you a little bit longer.

  • You're probably not going to be able to complete it

  • in five minutes.

  • It's going to be more like a 10 to 15, just so you know.

  • So now to make it a double, what we're going to do

  • is, we're going to go back underneath our original braid

  • and we're going to pick up some hair,

  • and we're going to do the exact same thing we did before,

  • which is start a braid and when we pick up hair,

  • we're just going to go ahead and pick up hair strands

  • from our original waterfall braid.

  • But when you go in, you're going to pick up those original hair

  • strands from the first waterfall braid.

  • Sorry.

  • Then you're still going to do just the regular waterfall

  • braid.

  • You're just going to be picking up

  • those second top strands from the original braid.

  • Don't know if that's making any sense.

  • So you can see I'm just picking up

  • the pieces that have fallen on the first waterfall

  • and adding them into the second waterfall.

  • So it's basically going to take those same strands

  • through again.

  • And it's going to give it a really

  • fun like a much more sophisticated-looking braid,

  • which it really isn't, but you're

  • going to get a lot more people asking you because it looks

  • way harder than it really is, which is always fun.

  • So in the back, I'm just going to quickly

  • do a quick braid just to hold this in place for a minute

  • so that it's not falling out.

  • You can drop these, babe.

  • Thank you.

  • Hold this.

  • And go to the other side and do the same thing.

  • Hold that.

  • Pick up the hair from the strand you dropped.

  • Sometimes I almost forget and just start

  • going into a regular French braid.

  • I have to like remind myself drop that hair.

  • It's such habit.

  • There you go.

  • And last one.

  • So now we're just going to do the same thing kind of,

  • just braid it off a little bit.

  • Thank you.

  • Now, I'm actually going to take it and try to rubber band

  • it almost right on top of the original rubber band

  • so you can't even see the first one.

  • And then-- excuse me-- grab a brush.

  • Just brush out the hair very softly that we worked with.

  • It's got its nice, soft wave.

  • And even if you wanted to, right here,

  • if you didn't like way the ponytail looked,

  • just do a quick wrap around with the hair

  • and secure it with a little bobby pin right underneath.

  • There you go.

  • And there you go.

  • The double waterfall braid.

-Hi, everyone.
