This father is a braid wizard

Girl-mothers, hand on heart: Who makes the children's hairstyles at home? Usually your self, right?

But Greg Wickherst, a Colorado native, has no choice. Because he is a single parent. As the hair of his little daughter grew longer, every morning he faced the seemingly unsolvable task of fumbling small rubbers in his child's hair with his big hands. Cut off? He was out of the question for Greg, so fast he did not give up.

Whether Dutt or French braid hairstyle, Greg's hairstyling is impeccable. And now he also tries out his own hairstyles - but not all of them are suspicious. "Last weekend, at some point, I had ten braids that I tried to connect to one, which did not look very good," Greg laughed at Buzzfeed.
