We're going to keep adding hair just like any other braid. Just remember to keep it smooth. Keep running your fingers through it. And, you'll see that we're almost to the edge of the borderline. Just be sure to keep all of these little hairs separate. Be very aware of it. You do not want to cross anything over. Just keep grabbing little bits of hair.
