  • -Hey everyone, I'm Mindy from CuteGirlsHairstyles.

  • And today Brooklyn is going to help me out

  • from BrooklynAndBailey.

  • -Hi guys.

  • -And we're going to show you how to do the running braid combo.

  • So I saw this picture pop up in my Instagram

  • feed from Lululemon.

  • And you guys are always asking me for hairstyles

  • that you can wear if you're doing athletics, you know,

  • that are still cute but pulled back and out of your face.

  • So this one, I knew, needed a tutorial.

  • So we're going to film this one for you guys today.

  • So we have just started by Brooklyn washed her hair

  • and slept on it last night.

  • So that it was nice and clean but we

  • haven't done anything with it.

  • And I'm going to begin a regular French braid right here

  • at the top.

  • Right just at the top of her forehead.

  • And just to begin we're going to run a basic French braid

  • down the top of her head.

  • And we are going to pick up hair all the way pretty much

  • to her ears.

  • So this is pretty basic.

  • Just a french braid.

  • You could even do a dutch braid if you really wanted to,

  • if that's the one you're more comfortable

  • with than a French braid.

  • That's fine too.

  • Now I'm going to continue the braid all the way down.

  • Just all the way to the very ends.

  • Get that piece of hair out of there.

  • And when I get to the end, I'm going

  • to secure it with an elastic.

  • And just for the sake of doing my next step,

  • I'm going to take this and just flip it

  • up and over so it's out of the way.

  • Now I'm going to take the rest of her hair

  • and I'm going to pull it up into a ponytail right

  • where the braid ends.

  • So you can just use a comb.

  • You can use some water or some hairspray if you need too.

  • On Brooklyn, she had a lot a little fuzzies.

  • So I'm actually going to just spritz a little bit of hair wax

  • through it to help kind of tame some of that flyway issue

  • for her.

  • OK and when you have that pulled where you pretty much want it,

  • then I'm going to add this hair back in and secure it

  • all together in one pony tail elastic.

  • Just make sure you have all your pieces

  • where you want them laying.

  • Into a nice, high ponytail.

  • Oh, she's got so much hair.

  • -Barely getting it around.

  • -I know.

  • That elastic was tight too.

  • OK.

  • So now we have the one braid and the remaining hair.

  • I'm going to take the braid again and flip it on top.

  • And I'm going to divide the rest of this section of hair

  • into three pieces, just pretty much even pieces.

  • And then you're going to braid each of those sections.

  • When you're done braiding those three sections,

  • go ahead and pull that fourth braid back down in.

  • And I'm just going to split two braids in my right hand

  • and two braids in my left.

  • And I'm going to just take them and twist them together

  • all the way down.

  • And then when you get to the end,

  • secure it with and elastic all together.

  • Oh!

  • That elastic did not last.

  • -My hair's too thick.

  • -Secure them all together.

  • And then you can even go back and pull out the others

  • if you'd like since you have it nicely secured together now.

  • And then just let it loosen up a bit and sit like this.

  • And you have the running braid.

  • Let's do a final spin.

  • It's just a great little French straight

  • into a ponytail of braids.

  • Would you wear that to your dance class, Brooklyn?

  • -Definitely.

  • -She has dance every day at school this year.

  • -It would stay in really well.

  • It'd be perfect.

  • -Keep it out of your face, anyway.

  • -Yeah.

  • -And if you're all sweaty or gross--

  • -It doesn't look that bad because it's already

  • in a ponytail.

  • -That's right.

  • Perfect.

  • OK, so if you guys want to see some really old pictures

  • of Brooklyn and our hairstyles, be

  • sure to check us out on Facebook.

  • Be sure to give us a like over there.

  • -Follow us on Facebook.

  • -We'll put a link in the description box below.

  • You can find it at CuteGirlsHairstyles, of course.

  • And we will see you guys next Sunday.

  • Bye you guys.

  • -Bye!

  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • -Wait, tell her what you're so excited about.

  • -School.

  • -Your first day of preschool right now.

  • Are we going right now?

  • -Mhm.

  • -OK, let's go.

  • -Yay!
