Multilevel Hair Braiding: Overlapping Braids

Video Transcript

"Ok. Now that we've got this braided all the way down to the second half, we're going to start adding hair to it to make it go in there. And, it seems that I may have extended it just a little bit too long. So, instead of backtracking I'm going to get bigger pieces to feed into here just to get it to lay flat and level out. You do not want this overlapping piece to be too loose. Whenever you're out and about doing your thing or when you sleep at night, it will really loosen it up and kind of mess up what we've got going. So, just grab larger amounts of hair to feed into it until you get it to lay down. That looks like it will be good right about there. So, I just keep grabbing hair and braiding down just like a straight braid. Like I said, the trick to these braids what makes them look good is the parting. And, the trick to that is just letting that float right over until you can start the other side. Just keep braiding down. And, we're going to go ahead and add all of this last bit of hair in there. Make sure we don't loose anything. And, remember to keep this really tight. So, when you cross that under it gets everything. And, then we're going to braid this all the way down. And, this is what it looks like. That's what a crisscross braid is. It's not that hard. But, it's really neat. Adds a lot of fun to any type of braiding hairstyle."
