Im' trying to learn how to do two braids (middle of head) and then bun them around each other. I got it ok, struggled a bit with tangles, and such, but are there any videos on youtube just to see if I'm kind of doing it right because it's all new to me. thanks!! PS On the same topic, I'm noticing with my double braids, they are not much narrower (less width) than my single braid, of course they're lighter/thinner, but almost the same width, like about 1.25 inches across. Do you all find that too? And I don't know if it's my hair type, but I can't get the "thick" do-it-tight and they turn into little thick balls, but mine always spread out, so I have wide, but thin braids, if you know what I mean,like my hair just doesn't stay together, maybe it's a 2C thing, or coarseness thing. Thanks!

There are multiple ways of doing it: I lost links to some videos, but these could be useful :) :
- braided updo/beehive (from 3 braids in the middle, but will work with any number of braids) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8y8or_RC6wM or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsQ15IxkWMA
- braided Chinese bun (from 2 braids side by side) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n98D0j8Ypfg
- braided knot (from 2 braids side by side) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDtu1gW1dvQ
