This checkerboard braid is easier than it looks and is so fun to make! Hope you love it.
We have shown several "checkerboard type braids" on this blog that you may have seen in the past...
The 5 strand checkerboard braid with ribbon,
5 strand checkerboard french braid,
and Checkerboard fishtail braid.
As you might have noticed, we love woven hairstyles! For today's style we tried to come up with something that has the woven checkerboard look, but isn't as difficult to create as some of the 5 strand braids or complicated zipper braiding techniques necessary to make most of these checkerboard braids. If you can make a feathered dutch braid and simple 3 strand braids, you should be able to accomplish this one.

Although fairly simple to create, this hairstyle looks so intricate and is sure to bring compliments and attention!
Supplies needed to recreate this braid:
- 2 clear hair elastics.
- Several hair ties and clips to temporarily hold the braids while you are working.
- Gel, pomade or other product to help control flyaways.
