Korshub's take

Overview

This class walks through braiding mixed curly hair on a real child, demonstrated on the instructor's four-year-old biracial daughter, who has thick, low-porosity curly hair. It opens with ten practical tips for working with curly hair, then moves into a full tutorial covering both a standard french braid and a dutch (inverted) french braid.

Who it's for

Parents and caregivers of curly-haired kids who want a clear, hands-on demonstration rather than a generic braiding guide.

Step-by-step technique for a classic french braid and a dutch braid
Why braids help protect curls, retain moisture, and resist tangling

Taught by a mother of four biracial daughters who has been perfecting her braiding skills since she was a teenager, and who shares more tutorials on her YouTube channel.

About the Instructor

Beth has been perfecting her braiding skills for years. She started braiding her own hair when she was in track in high school after she was told that having her hair french braided would make her more aerodynamic and faster. After school she would go to her mom’s daycare and kids would see her braids and ask her to braid their hair. So she became known amongst the kids as the go to person if you wanted your hair braided. Now she’s a mom to 4 biracial daughters and knows the importance of protecting their hair. She braids their hair all the time to keep it healthy and because they’re fun! She’s been teaching people how to braid mixed hair (among other things) on her Youtube channel.
