It is important to be holding onto these sections tightly. This will prevent any hair from slipping through your hands.

Step 6: Step 6

Then, for the sixth step, move the left section over the new middle section. The new middle section is now on the left. Then repeat these processes over starting again. Repeating all the way down the hair, creating a braid. Using a mirror will be beneficial so you can make sure that the hair is crossing the right pieces and that the braid is looking how wanted
