Before we begin to attempt any of the Braiding it is important that all braids are practised as plaits first.
This is because there is less hair to contend with and is less confusing whilst learning. Once plaits have been conquered and you are comfortable to proceed then you can attempt braiding. Starting with the simplest first through to the more advanced braids. I will list them in the order that I believe to easiest to learn. Some of the more advanced braids can become frustrating, but, remember it can be done and just needs a little persistence. If at anytime you feel frustrated with the braid you are working on, walk away, get a drink and come back and try again. You will find it will work better to take a break from it as apposed to trying to tackle it, this will just make it a hair pulling experience. Which is not what we want.
Make sure hair is combed through to remove any tangles, I have found if a little leave in moisturiser is used instead of mousse it makes braiding a lot easier (less sticky). Use Hairspray at the end.
