Please help me style DD's hair!

Can anyone recommend any really simple, step by step tutorials for things like French/Dutch plaits, buns etc. DD 11 would love me to be able to do her hair and I am properly rubbish! I really struggle with some things around coordination and following instructions (I can't really do flat pack furniture either!) I have mad curly hair and it's only ever scrunch dried or straightened and tied up.

I can sort of do a messy French plait on myself as I'm not looking and thinking about what goes where but that's my limit.

I feel like it's a life skill that I've somehow missed out on as a teen so if anyone can tell me how they learned I would be very grateful

Go on you tube and type the style in your looking for and they should have step by step guides on there. If your dd likes buns part her hair into 2 pigtails and plait each side then wrap the plait around into a bun and tie a bottle around it. It's meant to be messy aswell so doesn't matter of you get it a bit wrong. I love messy styles because you can't go wrong with them really. Also type in YouTube pancake hair style that's quite easy to do too

Bubble Braids are fairly simple once you get the hang of them (tip: put a few drops of citrus essential oil on the bands to take them out, it's much easier than trying to snap them and doesn't damage the hair)

'elsa coronation hair'- basically a twisted bun. you can do it without the ribbon if your dd didn't want that in it
