• Wash and dry your hair completely.

After washing and drying your hair, gently comb it from the roots. Make sure all hair is untangled.

(This will help create a neat braid.)

Depending on how many braids you want, you can part your hair.

It is your choice of how many parts you choose or how you create your part.

Keep all hair separated from the main hair (braid) you will be working with.

Brush your hair in the direction you want you braid to go (according to where you parts are).

Grab the main hair (braid) that you will work with first.

• Gently separate the main hair into 3 pieces. (Left Picture)
• Place one piece of hair in your left hand, leave some hair in the middle and place the remainder of the hair in your right hand.
• Using the hair in your right hand, place the hair under the center hair.
• While placing it in the center, rotate the hair that is in the center, to the left side.
• Place the hair that was once in the center to the right side, rotate the hair in your left hand to the center. (Right Picture)

• Continue this rotation in the direction you want your braid to go.
• Every time you rotate your hair, pick up small pieces of hair along the way.
• Tighten each piece along the way.
• This will cause your braid to continue being placed along your scalp.

Continue the same rotation until you have braided your hair in the direction you want it to go.

Braid all the way down to the end of your hair.

This will help it to not unravel.

You can place a rubber band, beads, or twist your ends to keep the braid secure. (It is your choice!!!)

Enjoy your French Braids!!!!
