A Dutch braid is created by crossing hair strands underneath sections versus over, as with a French braid. The style is also known as a reverse braid and is sometimes associated with UFC fighters (and referred to as "boxer braids").

A Dutch braid, also known as a reverse braid or boxer braid, involves crossing the hair underneath the three sections of your braid, as opposed to over, as you would with French braiding. Dutch braids are commonly proven to have more difficulty mastering than French braids.

To Dutch braid your hair, first separate your hair into a top section and a bottom section. Hold the top section with both hands, and let the bottom section hang down. Then, divide the top section of your hair into 3 equal strands. Pass the right strand under the middle strand, then pass the left strand under the middle strand.
