Show More Since posting a photo of this french ribbon braid on our Instagram account a few weeks ago (http://instagram.com/hair4myprincess) we have received many requests for a tutorial. So, we are bringing you the tutorial today!

The basic concept of this braid was inspired by our friends over at CuteGirlsHairstyles who showed us a "ribbon accented loony braid" done in a low side ponytail. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aji4YSjkTWo) We thought the braid was so adorable and wondered if it could be done as a French braid or Dutch braid. After some trial and error, we were finally able to make it work. And, we love how it turned out. This is one of those fun styles that will attract lots of attention, comments, and compliments! This braid looks quite unique with the ribbon zig sagging down the middle, yes?

I would say that at first glance this braid looks like a Dutch braid (meaning the outside strands would be coming in under the middle strand) but surprisingly it is actually a French braid. Also, as shown in our video tutorial, stretching out the strands is probably the most difficult part of this braid (since you will need to be careful where you are grabbing.)

Thanks for watching hair4myprincess!
