5 Strand Braid

Here it is!  The next installment of braids.

I thought this one was going to be so hard to master, but actually in some ways it's easier than 4 strands, and the more you practice it - the more I think you'll agree.  This one also seems to look more impressive, with very little extra effort.  Remember not to braid too tightly, and you can even fatten and flatten afterwards for an even more enhanced look.  My BIG Rapunzel loves this braid, as she is a fan of the new "messy look", we often do this one in a ponytail on the side, and I notice she likes this one the best. If you're nervous start with the hair in a ponytail and just play, after two or three goes, you'll have it mastered!
