Pull-Thru Braids are very popular right now, and we have several pull-thru tutorials. This style, was inspired by my good friend Jill Ehat (http://www.instagram.com.jehat).
We really love how this pull-thru looks. It can be dressed up or down. Brooklyn has worn this several times and has received lots of lovely comments while wearing it.

Step-By-Step Instructions
Pick up a small section of hair in the front and top of the head. Secure with a small elastic. Give the front a little tug to puff the hair a bit. Pull up sections from both sides, just under your first section, and secure with an elastic. Take the ponytail #1 & divide in two sections. Pick up ponytail #2 and hold it up and out of the work area. (Brooklyn held it for me) #1 should be in half and on either side of #2. Pick up two new sections of hair on both sides, combine with sections from #1 and secure with an elastic. (see video for more details) Split the hair from ponytail #2 and repeat the process. Pick up #3, hold out of the way. Pick up two new sections, add to hair from #2 and secure with an elastic. Hold #4 out of the way. Scoop up remaining hair into ponytail & secure with heavy elastic. (bigger section of hair needs sturdy elastic) Pull large (final ponytail) up and out of the way. Pull the two sections from #4 down & under the big ponytail and secure with small elastic. Now you go back and really pull, puff and fluff your pull out sections. I added a little teasing to my final ponytail as well to get a nice full look. Add hairspray if desiredThis week on Brooklyn & Bailey… “Pie Face Challenge” Mindy brings home a new game for the family. Watch to see who gets a pie slapped in their face!
