Rope Twist Combo Braid

Summer is here!  We are always looking for hairstyles that keep the hair off the neck during those Hot Summer Days!  This hairstyle uses a rope twist, 3 strand braid, and a fishtail braid.  I love this combo because it has a beautiful, soft boho look!

Items Needed: Brush, rat-tail comb, spray bottle, 2 small hair elastics, hairspray {if desired}.

Time Requirement: 5-7 minutes

Skill Level: Medium

Step-By-Step Instructions:

  • On the top of your head, comb all the hair back.  You don’t want a part line in the hair.
  • Pick up a small section of hair above the ear.  Divide that section into two pieces and begin a rope twist braid.
  • Twist each section to the right and then twist over each other to the left.
  • Tug on the edges of your twist a bit to give a soft/loose look to your twist. Secure the end with a small elastic or have your daughter hold the rope twist while you work on the other side.
  • Repeat rope twist on opposite side.
  • Bring your two twists to the back and secure with an elastic.  You want them to rest about the nape of the neck.
  • Reach under your twist, pick up all of the remaining hair and divide into 3 pieces.  (including the tail of your rope twist)
  • Begin creating a loose 3 strand braid.  After about 3 complete stitches, switch to a fishtail braid.
  • When you reach the end, secure the braid with a small elastic.
  • I prefer a loose, puffy braid.  So, go back and tug/pancake the edges of your 3 strand & fishtail braid to get a soft, loose look.
  • Add hairspray {if desired}.
