STEP BY STEPS

STEP 1

SECTION AT CROWN AND SPLIT HAIR INTO THREE

Starting at the crown, section the hair and split into three equal parts.

STEP 2

START BRAID IN FRECH PLAIT STYLE

Begin to braid adding a small veil of hair from each side as if you were creating a French plait.

STEP 3

CONTINUE DOWN HEAD

Work your way down your head, always adding a small veil of hair to the braid as you go.

STEP 4

REPEAT AND SECURE

Repeat step three until you reach the hair ends, then secure in place with a small hair elastic to create your braid hairstyle.

STEP 5

SECURE BRAID AT CROWN

For extra graphic finish to your braided hair, lift the skeleton braid up and secure up at the crown with a hair pin.
