  1. Start with a side part and slightly damp in the crown section.
  2. Spray with water and spray gel.
  3. Part off the crown section and clip out of the way.
  4. Part down the center back.
  5. Place your finger at the bottom of the nape and take the comb from the top down to your finger.
  6. Secure the pigtails with an elastic.
  7. Use more water and spray gel if needed.
  8. Take the crown section out of the clip.
  9. Part off a one inch diagonal section close to the part line.
  10. Split into three.
  11. Start a dutch braid by crossing the out side pieces underneath the middle section.
  12. Now add a section to the left piece and cross under the middle.
  13. Add a section to the right piece and cross under the middle.
  14. Use a smoothing brush if needed.
  15. Continue adding hair to each side and crossing under the middle until you have added in all of the hair from the crown section.
  16. Now simply three strand braid until the braid reaches the right side pigtail.
  17. Secure with an elastic.
  18. Smooth the pigtail.
  19. Add an elastic about 2-3 inches down the pigtail.
  20. Now gently pull at either side of the bubble (between the two elastics)
  21. Use a comb to smooth it if needed.
  22. Repeat a few inches down.
  23. Add another elastic and then gently pull to form the bubble.
