   Dreamernz braided 'do
People have been asking me for instructions to this for aaages so here goes, I finally got around to doing it. It actually probably works better on shorter hair but I'm sure it looks just as nice on longer hair but will take more time and work, I made it

Its really quite simple.
  • First separate your hair horizontally so that the top bunch is larger.
  • Then take three equal sections of hair (judge what size suits you best depending on your hair) at the top left 'corner' of your head, quite close to your hairline at the front.
  • Begin to french braid it diagonally across your head so that it finishes about ear level.
  • If you don't know how to french braid, you do a normal plait, but each time you cross the right section over the middle section and then the left section over the middle section, you add another smaller section of hair to the left and right sections.
  • You will have that far smaller section of hair (smaller proportion of your head I mean as there may be quite some length) left over (if its easier, at the beginning you can separate the two sections with hair ties).
  • Do exactly the same with this smaller french braid, but start with tiny sections and do not take as much care to make the sections even.
  • Either secure the remaining hair with hair ties and a claw clip as I did, or if you have more hair you will have to braids that you can twine together and either put up or leave
Well there you go, I hope that helped! Remember its all about having fun and experimenting! EVERYONE gets better with practise
