I am Mindy’s third daughter, Kamri, age 12, and today is my first ever tutorial on Cute Girls Hairstyles, and I will be teaching you how to create a French Twist into a Side Braid!
This hair style is super easy to do, a true beginner style. From start to finish, this braid literally takes me only one minute to do. It is an easy one to do on those mornings where you have very little time before leaving for school or work. I’ve have been wearing this hairstyle on myself for the past year.
You can begin with the hair wet or dry, either is fine. I then began with a French Twist, the bumpy kind, and then finished it off with a simple side braid. My friends at school know me for this hairstyle, and it holds up super well for sports, too!

Time Requirement: 1-2 minutes
Skill Level: Easy

Step-by-Step Instruction:
Part hair slightly off to one side, your preference, and begin with your hair combed out to detangle any knots {can be done on either wet or dry hair}… Near the part line, pick up two sections of hair and begin French twisting one piece over the other {I twist away from my face}, with each time you cross the strands, make sure to add in some hair from the bottom into the front piece. Continue this technique, in Step #2, as you work your way down the hair line next to your face…. When you get down to just right behind your ear, stop twisting the hair, and swoop all the remaining hair form the other side over your shoulder and add it into the bad of the twist {gathered like you were going to add a ponytail holder}… Then, divide the hair into three even sections and begin a regular 3-strand braid… Continue braiding until you run out of hair and secure with an elastic… Add hairspray, if desired.How did I do?
