The How-To: 

Step 1: Pull back the top section of your hair and braid normally—secure with an elastic. (Tip: Bring hair forward to braid.)

Step 2: Braid the ponytail you've just created. Then join that braid with the rest of your hair to create another ponytail and secure.

Step 3: Now braid the remainder of your hair (the new ponytail you created) and braid normally again—secure with your last elastic.

Step 4: Loosen up each braid with your fingers to give it a little more texture!

That's it.
