"Ok now that we have our base braid done, we're going to begin our parting for the one that's going to go across, and like I said before, when it comes to these crisscross braids planning is very important and I want to try to keep the proportion about the same on the hairline from where I started the other one. This one starts right here at the very top of the forehead so that's what I want to aim for right here, so I'm going to start with my comb right here, and again be careful with where you take your comb because you do not want to undermine the braid that you already have. So be very short with your stroke and be very calm with your combing. Let's see. Try to get everything out and go ahead and just try to comb this forward. You just really, really want it to be out of the way. We can check our first line and that's great. That's perfect right there and then we can part our other side."
