Pull Through Braid Pigtails | Q's Hairdos

Such a fun way to spice up the regular braided pigtails! This style stays in well if you use spray gel to keep those baby hairs put. Once you get the rhythm down, this style is simple to do!

Start by parting down the center of the head. One trick that helps me center the part down the back is by placing my finger at the base of the hairline (top of the neck) and part the hair with the comb from the top downwards to my finger. Secure the left half of the hair out of the way. Spray the hair with water and spray gel if desired.

1. Take a 1 1/2-2 inch section from the part line to the hairline and secure with an elastic in the middle of that section.
2. Continue taking 1 1/2-2 inch sections parallel to the first all the way down the back of the head.
3. Once you have finished the right side, do the same on the left side.

Now you will begin the pull through braid.

1. Split the first pony in half
2. Move the second pony through the first pony and clip out of the way
3. Secure the first pony to the third pony
4. Pancake
5. Repeat steps 1-4 until you have reached the bottom pony

Next you will split the pony in half, move the second pony through, but this time secure the ponytail to itself with an elastic. Then pancake. Continue this process until the end of the strands. At the very bottom I secure both ponytails together with an elastic in the same spot as the last elastic was placed. It just finishes it off a little better. Pancake for desired effect.

Repeat on the left side.
