Side French Braid Tutorial

Hello beauties! Today is a new first on DLD... my very first video tutorial!! I was so happy that many of you have commented and emailed your requests for a tutorial on this hairstyle (as seen in this style post), and I wanted it to be as simple and easy to follow as I could possibly make it. 

This braid is surprisingly simple to do, and if you already mastered a normal french braid it will be even easier. I found that the key to keeping layers in place, while avoiding that heavy hairspray look is to use a lightweight hairspray throughout the braid instead of a strong hold hairspray or no hairspray at all. It's a good balance, and really made a difference when creating this style!

You'll notice a few glitches here and there... my camera turned off three times during filming and I'm still learning the editing software. I'm hoping I've figured out enough tips and tricks this time around, so the next tutorial will go off without a hitch! I definitely discovered I'll be needing a microphone and a few other things if I'm going to keep going with these, so sorry about the muffled sound! It's a learning process, but disclaimers aside, here it is!

So, what did you ladies think? Would you like to see more tutorials like this on the blog? Let me know in the comments or in an email, and I hope you can put this cute and easy hairstyle to use this weekend!
