6 Easy and Fun Hairstyles With 2 Braids Ideas – Braids are having a moment, and they’re not going anywhere soon.
The best part about braids is they’re so versatile that you can create any style imaginable—you can switch up the length, size and thickness of your braid as well as what color it is and how long it hangs down.
There are many ways to style your hair with two braids. If you want to wear your hair down and wavy, you can use bobby pins to hold the braids in place.
Another option is using hairspray or even hairspray and bobby pins together. If you don’t want to do anything too complicated, just use a hair tie to hold them in place
Take a look at these hairstyles with two braids:
Braid a French braid.
To start a French braid, part your hair in three sections: two on either side of your head and one in back.
Then take the rightmost section (which will be right above or behind your ear) and cross it over the middle section.
Repeat this process until you reach the leftmost section (which will be directly behind your other ear). You should now have 1/3 of all of your hair braided together as one long piece.
To finish a French braid, take one strand from each section and braid them together until there are no more strands left—this is called “taking down” a French braid so that it looks neat.
You can also make messy twists at the end by simply grabbing random pieces from each side and twisting them together at random intervals until they look messy enough for you!
Braid a Dutch braid.
How to Braid a Dutch Braid
- Divide your hair into three sections at the top of your head.
- Gather one section in each hand and cross them over each other, creating a “4” shape with your fingers.
- Repeat this step on the other side of your head so that both sections are crossed over, creating an “8” shape with your fingers—this is called an X-braid; you can also make it look more like an infinity symbol by crossing them again inside the first set of outer loops (this will help make sure that it looks neat when you pull all four loose ends through).
- Take two loose ends from one side and add them under two separate strands on the opposite side; bring up as many strands as needed until they’re all incorporated into one large braid—you’ll notice that there are now eight strands instead of four! Continue braiding down toward the nape of your neck until all eight strands have been woven together into one massive braid or knot it off if you want less volume in back since there will now only be six pieces around front instead
Braid a French fishtail braid.
To get the French fishtail braid, you’ll need to start with two long braids. Start by taking a small chunk of hair from the back of your head and split it into three pigtails—one for each side and one for the middle.
Then, cross over each pigtail in the middle so that they all meet up. This creates one large braid with three smaller braids sticking out from it.
The next step is to take another piece of hair from further back on your head and start crossing over your other three strands as well (see video).
Once you’re done crossing over all four strands together, twist them around until you reach where they started again so that there’s no gap between any of them except where they meet at their tops in an upside-down V shape.
Now just keep repeating these steps until you’ve reached down past your shoulders or whatever length looks good on you!
Braid two box braids, then add ponytails to the ends.
- To create the box braids, divide your hair into two sections and separate each strand into three sections.
- Starting at the front of your head, begin to braid each section until you get to the ends where you want to add a ponytail holder.
- Once all of your hair has been divided into two sections and braded until they meet at the back of your head, secure them with elastic bands or pins so that they stay in place while you work on adding ponytails to each side of your head (one on each side).
- Take one end from either side of your head with an elastic band attached and pull it through a ponytail holder so that it stays in place; repeat this step for all other ends as well.
Braid tiny braids, then put them in a ponytail.
- Divide your hair into two sections and tie them back in a loose ponytail.
- Using smaller braids, create one on each side of the head at the base of your neck and secure with a rubber band or elastic. The smaller braids can be half as wide as your hair is long! This will make them easier to manage later when you’re styling them into a full braid down to your waist or hips (if that’s what you’re going for).
- To finish up your hairstyle, all that’s left is to style those tiny braids and add any embellishments like bows or flowers if you’d like! The best part about having tiny braids is that they keep falling out of place less often than regular ones do; however, there will still come a time when it happens—just use hairspray to set everything in place again before heading out for dinner with friends!”
Braid two ropes and then put them in a bun.
If you love braids, but don’t have time to do them yourself, this style is perfect for you. You’ll need two ropes of hair—one from each side of your head—and bobby pins.
First, braid the ropes into separate braids. Then take one rope and tie it around the other rope so that they’re twisted together.
Tie them at the end with a rubber band or elastic band so that they stay put while you make a bun out of your new hairstyle!
Conclusion
There are so many ways to style your hair with two braids, and they’re all creative and fun! You can use them to make French braids, Dutch braids and fishtail braids.
You can also braid tiny braids or even pigtails. Depending on the look you want, any combination of these styles will work well for you.
Just remember that it takes a lot of practice before you get good at this type of hairstyle!
