"Now that we've established this half of our bottom braid I'm going to tilt the head back again just to see where this part is. Go ahead and run that comb down and separate it. Ok, now we just really want to just keep that comb floating to get it to the part that we desire and just really separate that hair to see where this line is going and there's a little bend right there so just take that comb, undo it. Just a few stray hairs, but this part is really important it's this parting that makes these braids exactly what they are. Once we get all of this done it's pretty much just braiding it straight back, but the parting is what gives this design its flair. Ok once you have each section parted make sure you rubber band them to keep it separate because you do not want to get it in the way.
