Hair braiding is a way of styling hair by weaving three or more strands together. There are many different types of braids, from simple three-strand braids to more complex styles like French braids or fishtails. Braids can be big or small and can cover the whole head or just a small section. People have been braiding hair for thousands of years in cultures all around the world.
How:
To braid hair, start by combing it to remove any tangles. Divide the hair into three equal sections. Cross the right section over the middle, then the left section over the new middle. Keep repeating this pattern, adding more hair to each section as you go if you’re doing a French braid. Tie off the end with an elastic band when you’re done.
