Braiding Hair

Braids are some of the most versatile types of hair styles today. They can be done as part of an elaborate updo for a special occasions, as a way to keep hair off the face, or as a semi-permanent style that is kept in the hair for months. Depending on the style of braid, it can take anywhere from a few minutes to several hours to have braids done, so it is important to understand the different styles of braids.

Traditional Braids
There are two basic types of traditional braids, all of which involve taking all of the hair and creating one individual braid on the head. These styles are more popular on Caucasian hair but can be done on any hair type.

Regular Three-Strand Braids
Regular three stand braids are the easiest of all the methods of braiding hair and generally only take a few minutes to complete.
Hold the hair in one hand, as if you were about to put it in a low ponytail.
Divide the hair into three sections of the same size. Hold the left piece between your thumb and forefinger on your left hand. Hold the middle piece with the tip of your right forefinger and thumb. Hold the right piece between your thumb and forefinger, as well, closer to your palm.
Take the piece from the right side and cross it over the middle one.
Shift the formerly middle piece closer to your palm to replace the piece from the right side.
Repeat on the left side. Follow suit on the right side again, and then to the left until you're done with the length of the hair.
