Today, one of the victors of 74th Hunger Games is celebrating her birthday! Katniss Everdeen, the girl who was on fireeeeeeee! -clap clap applaud applaud kiss your three fingers on your left hand and hold it up to her-

It's her birthday, so I'm gonna make another Katniss hair tutorial! Yay. Today, I will teach you how to make Katniss' braid in the reaping.

Sadly, I'm in a bit of a hurry now and I don't have time for any illustrations (except for the GIF over there, which was hard to find).

You're going to need some bobpins and hair ties (preferably the transparent or the ones that match your hair color).

1. French braid your hair on both sides of your head, a bit close to your ear. (If you don't know how to french braid, google it or read my tutorial on how to do Katniss' hair in the Games [if you decide to read my post on how to do Katniss' hair, remember to braid your hair over instead of under]).
2. After braiding both sides of your head, fold them over each other. Clip bobpins so that it will stay in place. You could also place hairspray if you want.

I'm sorry for this hasty post and the not-so-clear instructions! But if you still don't get it, this is where I learned it:
