Well a french twist is easiest when you brush it all back and start at the ends of the hair slowly twisting them toward the back of her head. once you get a pretty tight roll but aren't quite to her head twist it sideways to give it a better hold. once you get all the way to her head secure it in place by bobby pinning underneathe so the pins aren't to visible. Use a genrous amount to ensure that the style won't fall. then just spray it to high heaven with hair spray and it should be good.
