Many of you know how popular our Waterfall Braid has become! It has become the most searched, modern braid on the Internet. In fact, our Self Waterfall Braid tutorial is by far the most popular hairstyle tutorial on YouTube {at over 18,000,000 views}!
Since our first Waterfall Braid posting back in 2009, we promised to bring you beautiful variations of this braid and today’s promises to be another beautiful one!
Here we show you how to create the Waterfall Braid using the Dutch Braid instead of a French Braid. Yes, it can be done… and next week we will upload how to DIY {Do-It-Yourself} this braid!
What I particularly love about the Dutch version is that the braid really pops out, creating the perfect accent for the falling strands!
The stranding {or stitching, as we call it} for the Dutch Waterfall Braid can be quite difficult. I will explain the steps the best way I can, but please be sure to view the video to gain a complete understanding:
You can see our other Waterfall Braid variations here:
I am sure that this Dutch Waterfall Braid will be just as viral as the original Waterfall Braid, since everyone is wanting to learn the latter! You can be the first to master this, and be the envy of all the other girls wearing just the Waterfall Braid!
If you LOVE this hairstyle, please be feel free to blog about it, share it on Facebook, tweet it on Twitter, pin it on Pinterest, and add it on Instagram. For the first time ever, we will accept all video responses of you showing the Dutch Waterfall Braid on YouTube {just be sure you tag us as CuteGirlsHairstyles in the video title}!
Enjoy!
