Chris Pratt learned to do French braids for the sweetest reason

Such a hero.

Chris Pratt is a hero. 

When it comes to what we look for in our other halves there are some commons hopes including that they make us laugh, smile, and feel happy and loved.

What we would also really like is that they can do our hair, but that’s not always realistic. But for Anna Faris, who is married to Chris Pratt, every night that is a reality.

Chris wowed the world back in 2014 with his fantastic braiding skills which put us all to shame. The reason why he learnt to do it has been revealed and it is the sweetest thing ever.

He was speaking to InStyle when they asked him why he learned to French braid. He explained that he knew how to braid from his sister when they were younger but changed the style around to help stop Anna’s hair from breaking.

He said:

“My sister taught me how to braid when we were younger. Then, I would braid Anna’s hair at night … it was a nice little ritual. But her hair started breaking off at the top of the braid because she was sleeping on it.

So Anna’s mom thought a French braid might distribute the pressure. She taught me when we were in Hawaii shooting Jurassic World.”

So he deliberately learnt how to learn a new type of braid for his wife. SWOON!
