Video Transcript

"To braid hair with a weave, you want to section off, I would suggest, half of an inch subsections and that is to have a tight braid or to not have, make sure that your braids are not bulky. I normally add synthetic hair in with the braid, the reason is that it just gives it more stability. But to braid the hair again I would suggest taking half of an inch subsection and then braiding the hair closely close down on to the scalp as tight as possible without causing any discomfort to your client. If you are not a braider or have not yet learned the technique of braiding with three strands another way to braid the hair down to the scalp is just by using a two strand braid and this is simply by twisting the hair back on to the scalp. Then secure your braid with a clip unless of course you need to continue braiding all the way down to the end and here are two different techniques as to how to braid for a weave."
