" Hello I'm Jacqueline on behalf of expertvillage.com. In this clip I'll be telling you how to accessories cornrows. Have fun accessories your cornrows. You could use barrettes, beads, shells, or any number of colorful decorations. To bead cornrows the easiest way to do it is to get about 4 feet of string fold it half and tie a knot at the open end with the bead on it. Then you string your beads and that first bead that you tie it on there will make sure that none of the beads fall off. Then you put it in the pattern that you desire. After you string the beads you put the loop around the end of the braid and then slide on as many beads that as you want and the pattern that you desire. Then you use the end of the hair to wrap around the last bead and rubber band it. Make sure anytime that you use rubber bands in the hair there made for hair otherwise you run the risk of breaking the hair off. It is not mandatory that you use accessories on the ends of your braids. You could use them at the begin of your braid and leave the end of your braid undone. They would curl up naturally."
