1) Part hair down center
Part your hair down the center. Include your bangs if you want, they can become part of a french braid even though they are shorter than other sections of hair. I used a rattail comb to help get my part.
2) French braid each side
You will french braid each of the two sections of hair your part created. This will result in two braided pigtails.
3) Wind braids into buns
Press fingers onto braid where the braid and the base of the skull meet. With the other hand take the lower part of the braid and begin to wrap around where the other hand is holding the braid. This will help you coil the hair into a bun.
