Instagram is full of these braided hairstyles isn’t it enough to know it’s time for you to upload such pictures too. If you agree, I have a suggestion go for Dutch Braids as it is stylish and elegant braid style. To stand out on social media you cannot go for the regular braid you need to move a step ahead and opt for a different one.

Dutch Braids are a better option as French Braid and Fishtail braid has become very common and normally all women go for these hairstyles. Dutch braid is nothing but a reverse French Braid. Here you have to cross the hair sections under instead of over, it may seem complex but trust me is very simple. One of the best advantage of Dutch Braid is it works well with all hair length but it is advisable to go for Double Dutch Braid if you have short hair. Read my blog to understand how it is made? How to style Dutch Braid with right outfit? What are the quick and easy steps to get it right?
