Comb your hair thoroughly, taking out any knots. You can add clip-ons if your hair is very short or thin. Other than that, add some hair mousse close to the roots and eventually down to add volume to the hair. Make a deep side partition to the hair. Grab a big section of the hair besides the partition, close to the roots. Divide the section into three equal strands. Take the third strand/ back strand and cross it over the middle strand. Do the same with the first/front strand by crossing over the middle again. This time, retake the back strand and add some more hair to it. Cross this new thicker back hair strand over the middle again. Now, leave the original front strand as it is and pick up a new one behind that. Cross the new front strand over the middle one. Now repeat the same procedure again with the volume added back strand. Remember to leave the original front strand each time, replacing it with some hair behind it. Keep repeating the same procedure until you reach the other side of your hair, or up to a point you want your braid to go. In the end, secure it with your hair tie or tuck it with bobby pins.Lastly, spray on some hair spray so that you can rock this look for hours without messing it!
