"Okay, we're almost done getting all this out so- Hey, welcome back. You're just in time. Today we're going to show you how to remove braids from hair. Now listen, this was all braided, so that's why she's got a beautiful curl. But getting them out is not always easy. So what you should do is get a rat tail, this is what I suggest, and simply start unraveling from the bottom. There's no way you can get through this braid by starting at the top, you must start at the bottom. Now if you don't have a rat tail, you can use your fingers. You simply grab the strands and start unraveling them. If you pull, they can come apart pretty easily. So remember, have a comb by your side, and also just your fingers will do the job. Last, but not least, go ahead and comb the rest of that braid out. Now if it begins to tangle, just go a little bit slower, so that you can get that braid out completely. Whoo, got them all out, that's a lot of braiding. Listen, it's a beautiful way to style your hair, but you got to have the tips when you're ready to take them out. My name is Sylvia Russell, and this is how you remove a single braid."
