I seperate her hair into 2 sections, then start "french braiding" each side of the head.When I braid down to the nape of the neck I pull hair from both braids and start making one braid down her back. When it's all braided I use one of those small clear bands to hold it and then roll it up and under until there is a small chignon and secure it with a small clip. It takes practice but it looks really good if you can get it right.
