Braiders: Do you prefer French or Dutch Braids?

[Starlight1986]

I already searched the forums but didn't find a poll like that.
So, to all of you who like to braid, do you prefer French or Dutch Braids? And why?

I French most of the time because it keeps my layers in better.

I like French braids for sleeping or actually keeping my hair braided, but also Dutch because they look nicer (to me). I'll go with French.

I love the look of a dutch braid, reminds me of...i dont know, but i it looks cool! And the pattern on the rest of the braid i think is more eyecatching than say a regular french braid tail. French braids always made me uncomfortable and they reminded me of armidillos or roaches..O.O you know, their backs.
Just my own opinion.

I like both, but French braid is my favorite...I think it looks so pretty!

I can French braid faster, so I do that more often. But if I have time, I like to do two Dutch braids that combine into a French.

I like both, but I wear French braids more often, because I like to wear them folded, and they fit under my bike helmet better.

I like french braids if I'm doing all my hair, and dutch braids if I'm doing just the front of my hair like a head band.

I didn't quite get your question because it wasn't specific enough - did you mean to ask if we prefer the look of certain braids or if we prefer doing certain braids??

I prefer the look of French braid but somehow my fingers automatically do the Dutch braid and I'm better at Dutch braiding. I voted for Dutch braid
