I love doing dutch braids, its easy and quick to do and my hair is out of my face. My hair is on the shorter side, so what I love to do when I braid my hair, is to add some hair extensions. Then my braids get bigger and longer. This kind of braid is also very trendy on Instagram right now, so today I’m going to teach you how to place the hair extensions in your hair, so you can’t see them when you are done. Lets get into it, how to braid with extensions 101.
