Girls' Hair-- the fake french braid

I wanted to try something with Lanie's hair that would look like a french braid but wouldn't be as difficult, so I tried this. I don't love it, but it's cute enough to repeat. Afterword I looked at videos on youtube, and they included a ribbon. I think I'll try that next time. Anywho...

Here's the final look...
After parting the hair and generous spraying, you start with a small ponytail in the front, at a diagonal.
Then you grab another section at the diagonal...
And put it in a ponytail. It will start to have the look of a french braid.
Keep going...
Keep going until you reach where you want to end. I only wanted to do half-up.
Then you do the other side. Make sure you keep the ponytails in line, and the sections have to be even.
Here's the completed look.
I don't love it, but I'm going to try and tweek it a little bit. Stay tuned for some variations. :)
