Want to learn how to do your hair or your daughter's hair in a French twist? It's a good idea to learn how to do hair in a French twist, because it definitely has advantages. This hairstyle is elegant and beautiful.

Classy enough to be worn to the prom or a dinner party, and casual enough to wear with jeans, the French twist is just gorgeous. It's also a low maintenance style. Once you do your hair up, you can wear it the entire day without having to stop and re-do it all the time.

The first thing you need to do is to gather your hair up into a simple pony tail. Now make sure that you like what you see in the front when you look in the mirror. A few wisps around your face may be a good thing.

Next, hold your pony tail up in the air and begin to twist it. Twist two to three times until you can feel the pressure on the back of your head. The direction doesn't really matter.

Next, you will fold the twisted pony tail in half, and secure the bottom part of the twist in with the pony tail holder. Once you do this, the middle of the twist should be just at the bottom of your head.

Next, take your halved pony tail and twist it a few more times. When it comes to learning how to do hair in a French twist, you'll find that this is the hardest part.

You'll get the hang of it after you practice a few times. You will twist it, and then pin it to your head with your hand.

Now, take several bobby pins and use them to secure the twist to your head. By pushing the pins in where the twist meets the hair on your head, you will be able to hide the pins a little better.

A small mirror can be invaluable if no one is helping you. Hold it up in front of you while you stand facing away from the bathroom mirror, checking to see how your hair looks.

If you like what you see and feel confident you've learned how to do hair in a French twist, spray it down with a bottle of hairspray and voila! You're ready to go.
