HAIR BASICS
(Page 6 of 6)
•To untangle snarls, comb hair out starting at the
ends of the hair, working your way up. Knots at the nape of
the neck are particularly tough; be patient.

The French Braid
BONNIE GARDENER
1. With your thumbs above and slightly behind your ears,
draw back and upward, gathering the hair that meets at the
crown into a ponytail. Do not bind with a rubber band.
2. Divide hair into three sections. Cross left strand over
the center strand so the two strands trade places, then the
right strand over the center so that those two strands
change places.
3. Hold the braid in your right hand, keeping the three
strands separated with your fingers. Place your left thumb
above and behind your left ear, and use it to draw a strand
of hair that is half as thick as one of the original
strands that's located in the braid.
4. Add newly gathered hair to the left strand and cross
this increased strand over the center strand, so that the
center strand is now to the left.
5. Hold the braid in your left hand, always keeping the
three strands separate. Place your right thumb above and
behind your right ear and use it to draw a strand half as
thick as one of the originals towards the ponytail.
6. Add the newly gathered hair to the right strand and
cross this increased strand over the center, so that the
center strand is to the right.
7. Continue to gather hair from the left and right, adding
it to the strands just before you cross them over the
center.
8. When there is no more loose hair to gather, switch to a
plain braid for the remaining hair and fasten with a coated
rubber band.
