"Ok now that we're towards the end of this first section of hair, I'm going to show you exactly what we do to get this crisscross braid to cross over the other one. So just keep going. Keep the hair smooth. Keep it all separated. Ok I'm going to go ahead and divide this up a couple more times. Remember the smaller the amounts of hair you use the smoother that this thing goes back. Ok. We've got our last piece of hair and this is the trick. This may shock some people. You do nothing but let it float, just do your standard hanging braid and let it hang all the way over the top of this braid. However, you must be aware of where you stop and I'm going to stop right about there. I'm going to let one more come underneath and I'm going to start grabbing hair to get this to feed onto the other half, but that's all it is to get that braid to cross over just like that."
