Step 1: Gather Your Supplies
Before you start braiding, make sure you have the right supplies. You’ll need a brush or comb, four small elastic bands, and some hairspray or gel. You may also want to use a hair clip to keep your hair out of your face as you work. Gather up all your supplies and put them within reach so you don’t have to keep getting up and down as you work.
Step 2: Separate Your Hair into Four Sections
Once you have all your supplies, it’s time to start braiding. Start by brushing your hair and then separate it into four equal sections. You can use a comb to make sure all the sections are the same size. Make sure the sections are even and tight before you move on to the next step.
Step 3: Start Braiding
Now that you have your four sections separated, you’re ready to start braiding. Take the leftmost section and hold it in your left hand. Take the section next to it and hold it in your right hand. Now, take the leftmost section and cross it over the section in your right hand. Take the section in your right hand and cross it over the leftmost section. This creates the basic four strand braid.
Step 4: Continue Braiding
Continue braiding in this pattern until you reach the end of your hair. You can use an elastic band to secure the end of the braid. Once you’ve finished braiding, you can use hairspray or gel to help keep the braid in place. You can also use a hair clip to keep the braid from unraveling. You can also add some accessories like bows or barrettes for an extra special look.
