How to learn a basic braid

It's easy to learn a basic braid. Once you've practiced on other materials or other people, you should find it easy to braid your own hair as well.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• practice materials like: three strands of yarn, rope, string, twine or someone who likes having their hair played with.

1. 
    

   If you are using material other than someone's hair, tape down your three pieces onto a table or the back of a chair so they will stay in place.
   If you are practicing on someone, devide the hair into three equally thick parts.

2. 
    

   going from left to right we will call the sections: A, B, and C.
   Take section A, placing it over section B. So that A is now in the middle.

3. 
    

   now take section C, placing it over section A. Now section C is in the middle. The order now is B, C, A

4. 
    

   Take section B, placing it over section C so that B is once again in the middle.

5. 
    

   Continue these steps, first drawing from the left, then the right. When you reach the end of the braid secure it with a hair binder and you're done!
