Tools and materials:
- Hair ties
- Hair clip
1. Pull out the face-framing pieces
Separate the face-framing pieces away from the rest of your hair. You won’t be braiding these.
2. Tie a section in the front
Take a small section of hair at the front of your head and tie it back. Tighten it.
Clip it away for now.
3. Create a new section behind the first
Create a second section roughly the same size as the first right behind it.
4. Split the first section into two
Split the first section in half.
5. Pull the second section through the first
Pull the entire second section between the two split sides of the first section.
6. Combine the split section with a third section
Create a new section behind the second one, and then recombine the two sides of the first section with it.
7. Repeat
Repeat this process down the rest of your scalp. Each section will get thicker the more hair you add.
Once you run out of hair to add, just finish the braid down the length of your hair with the remaining three sections.
Pinch and pull at the sides of the “braid” to thicken it and add volume.
