Dutch Braid Ponytail
With Criss Cross String
Episode 6 of Beat The Clock brought clean parting, bold braid structure, rainbow criss cross string, and a polished ponytail finish — all completed before the timer hit zero. Gabby beat the clock with 3:33 left.
The Challenge
This episode focused on creating a sleek Dutch Braid Ponytail with colorful Criss Cross String details woven over the braid structure. The pressure was keeping the parts clean, the braids secure, and the ponytail base polished while racing a 30-minute clock.
The final style delivered a bold, sporty-glam finish with rainbow string accents, face-framing curls, a wrapped ponytail base, and smooth control from front to back.
