Step 01: Start with a regular half ponytail on the top of your head.
Step 02: On the tail of that first ponytail, go down a couple inches, and tie off another hair tie.
Step 03: Underneath the first ponytail, section off another strip of hair, and tie it into a second ponytail.
Step 04: On the top ponytail, split the section of hair between the first hair tie and the second hair tie in the middle, making a hole.
Step 05: Grab the second ponytail from underneath, and pull it through the hole of the top ponytail.
Step 06: Tie another elastic band on the tail of the now-combined top two ponytails, and then create a third ponytail underneath.
Step 07: Similar to step 4, split the section between the two top ponytails, making a hole. Pull the third ponytail from underneath through the hole.
Step 08: Repeat this process of creating ponytails underneath each other and pulling them through the holes in between each hair tie.
Step 09: When you get to the base of the head, and all your hair is in the ponytail, separate it into “top” and “bottom” ponytails. Then tie a hair tie on the top ponytail, and pull the bottom ponytail through. Continue this until the braid is complete.
