- Hello guys.
It's Bailey and I'm here to show you guys
how to do the Double Dutch Buns,
which is a short hairstyle for girls
with short hair, like me, because I have short hair,
and it's really cute, so I'm here to show
you guys how to do that.
I know you all have been asking a lot lately
for short hairstyles, so I'm glad to accommodate.
Also, if you haven't subscribed to this channel,
definitely subscribe and click the bell
so that you can get the notification when we post a video
so you could be here for power hours that we can respond
to your comments, 'cause that's what power hour is.
We'd like to respond to you guys 'cause we love you
guys so much.
So, let's get on with the video.
I know that Space Buns are a really being popular
thing right now, but all of us girls with short hair
over here are like,
"Hey, we still wanna be in style,
"but we don't have enough hair for that
"and if we do manage to somehow get ponytails
"all the way up here,
"we have about this much hair left."
So then you just look like a little three year old,
and things just do not workout.
So I was kind of like experimenting with my hair
and I was like, how can I do Space Buns
with short hair and so I discovered
that you can do a really fun like braid
into a bun lower here,
so I guess it's not really Space Buns
but you still have the double bun look
which is totally kind of what is in right now.
So, we are calling this the Double Dutch Bun
and I'm here to show you guys how to do it.
So, let's start with a middle part.
So I'm just gonna go ahead and use my fingers.
You can use a comb, or whatever you want to.
I'm pretty used to just doing it on my own
so I will do that right here.
And then make sure you part all the way down
'cause we are going to be braiding it.
(upbeat instrumental music)
So, now that you've parted it,
I'm just gonna pull this side up so it stays
out of the way of me braiding the other side.
It's gonna look really cute.
Pippy Longstockings, yeah.
Alright, so now that we've got it parted
and it's parted in the middle,
we're gonna start our Dutch Braid
in the front.
So first things first.
Take a small piece up here.
Just a small one.
Split into three sections
and then start Dutch Braiding.
So you take one piece
wrap it underneath the middle,
take in the other side.
Underneath and then you just add in hair
to the side pieces.
So, add in hair, tuck it underneath.
(upbeat instrumental music)
Add in hair.
Tuck it underneath the middle.
Add in side.
Tuck it under.
Add in the side.
And tuck it under the middle.
And we'll just keep doing this braid
all the way down until we hit about here
and then I'm going to stop for a second.
(upbeat instrumental music)
So, I actually find it easier to Dutch braid
on myself then French braid
but this hairstyle you can do French braids, too.
You can do whatever.
I just prefer Dutch braids 'cause you can pancake them
and make them look really pretty and cute.
And you can see that we're kind of aiming for more like
a side braid instead of like an up and over braid
'cause you want to be able to see it from the front.
Especially when it's pancaked because
I know it looks really pretty and like BoHo.
(upbeat instrumental music)
Okay, so now you can see I have finished
my Dutch braid until here.
What I'm going to do is I'm going to keep
braiding it like so
until about as far as my hair will go
which isn't very far 'cause it's super short.
So now that I have my braid, I'm just going to
hold it at the end.
So this is when it gets a little bit tricky
because you have to somehow make this into a bun.
So first things first.
I'm going to grab the end of my braid
and you can let go,
so now you have more of a ponytail
and a braid going into it.
I'm going to take my rubber band like so,
wrap it around,
so you can see end is basically making a ponytail.
Now that I've done that,
I'm going to keep wrapping.
So now I wrap twice.
Now I'm going to pull my ponytail through
but only pull it halfway.
(upbeat instrumental music)
So you can see I have made a bun.
So right now, I don't really want to leave it like this
'cause it kind of just looks like
you know, kind of like young and I'm weird
and I wanna tuck it in and make it look like
a Space Bun.
So what I'm going to do is,
fold the ends out as far as they will go
without falling onto the ponytail,
and then tuck my bun up.
And then I will pin it.
(mumbles)
And it might require depending on the length
of your hair, it might require more or less
bobby pins, so I'm gonna take a second
and just pin my bun up.
(upbeat instrumental music)
Okay, so you can see that I pinned my bun up
so you can see one side is done except for no pancaking.
So now that we have the bun finished,
I'm gonna go ahead and pancake this side
and I like to always pull out
a little bit of hair on the outside my ear,
so right here, and I'm just going to pancake some.
And usually with short hair, you can actually do this
no matter what 'cause your hair's short,
so like you don't even have to have layers.
You can pull out the pieces by your ear
and it works out perfectly.
Now I'm just going to pancake.
If you guys done know how to pancake
you grab the edges of your braid
and you pull them out to make them like look fatter
and prettier.
So I'm gonna go ahead and do that with my braid here.
(upbeat instrumental music)
Just perfect it.
Keep tugging if you want to more or less.
I like to do mine as much as possible just because
the more pancaked, the prettier it is.
And then make sure you pop up
the front a little bit so it's not too
slicked back because we're really going for like
the BoHo look.
And then make sure everything's pinned up
the way you like it.
Okay.
So now we have one side done.
So we're gonna go ahead
and repeat everything that we just did on this side
on the other side.
So, as a reminder, you wanna take a small piece
at the top, right here,
and you want to split it into three sections
and begin Dutch braiding.
So take the side piece, tuck it underneath the middle,
take the other side piece, tuck it underneath the middle
and then keep on adding in pieces of hair.
So I'm gonna grab a piece,
add it into the side strand,
tuck it under the middle,
and I'll keep continuing this
all the way down the braid.
And remember we're going for more
like a side braid, around braid,
instead of an up and over
because I'm gonna be able to see it from the front.
(upbeat instrumental music)
So now that we have gotten to the very bottom
make sure you haven't missed any strands
'cause it does happen sometimes
especially with short hair.
So now that I have it all pulled up,
I'm gonna continue the braid down,
hold it, and then grab it here,
just like you did last time.
Grab it here.
Rubber band it once, twice, and then
we'll do this.
Pull it through.
Only part way.
So you have a little bit left over
like last time.
Pull the ends through as far as you can.
And tuck it up and pin it.
Just like this.
So now I'm gonna go ahead and pin it.
(upbeat instrumental music)
Alright, I finished pinning my bun
and pancaking the braid.
And voila!
You can see that we've got the two buns
down here, so we accommodated the short hair
and we have the braids right here,
so if you have any crazy layers,
or your hair's super extra short,
the braids will be able to help hold it the buns.
And there you have it.
The Double Dutch Buns.
Now it's time for the final spin so,
there you go.
