I wished I had this book years ago when my granddaughter’s hair was longer. I really needed help then. With 9 different numbered step-by-step instructions, this book is great! From the basic braid, to the cornrows, to the waterfall, to the fishtail, this book is fun! You can do your own hair or someone else’s.
The book gives you advice on how to get started on your own hair or someone else’s and what you’ll need: comb, brush, hair clip, elastics, bobby pins, spray bottle, pomade or anti-frizz serum. At the back of the book, there are some extra fun tips which are worth checking out. This book has it all!
Each step-by-step direction is numbered so you can’t get lost. It has listed what you need to get started. The illustrations are very detailed and show the layering using red and black colors on a round head with printed instructions down below each step.
This definitely is a huge help! Sure, it will be time consuming the first couple times you use this but to have this resource at your side is priceless. To look back and find which braid you want to make and how you can do it before attempting it would help too. These little pocket books are worth checking out. For $5.99, you can’t beat it. The size of the book is 4-1/8 by 6- 7/8 and about 1/8 thick. There are a few in this series and they’re new. 5 stars.

This book is fantastic! So simple but totally helpful! I may just be really slow and uncoordinated, but I’ve never been able to get the hang of a fishtail braid till this book. Love love love it!
Would be a great little gift to parents of little girls.

I’m obsessed with these books. Why didn’t anyone tell me a braid crown was just two braids wrapped around your head? People who have to teach themselves how to braid need these tips!
