Braiding hair and stabbing - it seems that it could be easier. But here you begin - and you do not get a beautiful hairstyle. Try to make it with us!

Let's start with the basics - with the side braids. You can stay on it, but you can continue.
So, divide the part of the hair above the ears into three strands of equal thickness. We begin to weave a pigtail at the level of one temple and towards the other through the crown.

HAIR BASIS
The pigtail starts at about the level of the upper point of the ear and it should end at the same level, but at the other temple, that is, you can weave the pigtail from left to right and from right to left.
Weave like this: take a little from each strand of hair and weave it into a regular pigtail.

This is how the pigtail looks on the side. TIP Make sure that the pigtail is flat and snug against your head.

FRENCH SIDE BRAID
First you need to weave a pigtail, taking small strands into it, from one ear to another through the crown, tight to the head. Then take all the hair from the top of the head and braid (not tight!) The pigtail from all the hair from the top of the head. The pigtail should hang freely from the side.

Fix the tip of the pigtail with a hairpin or elastic, then apply a little styling agent.

The French pigtail is perfect for girls who like to walk with their hair loose, but at the same time they prefer to remove part of their hair from their faces. And now a hairstyle for those who like to pin hair up.

Wreath "Gretchen"
It is difficult to do such a hairstyle yourself, so it’s better to ask someone to help you. The basis of this wreath is the same side braid that is described above, only such a wreath is woven not from one ear to the other, but around the entire head.

This means that if you started weaving a wreath from the left ear, then here you must finish it.
The remaining hair is not tightly braided into a braid and lay this braid around the first braid in the second row.

Hide the ends of the hair in a wreath using invisible or hairpins. Apply a little styling agent. Hairstyle is ready!

DUTCH SPIT
Does the wreath seem old-fashioned to you? Try braiding a Dutch braid. By the way, this is somewhat easier. Unlike the usual, "peasant" braid, which starts from the back of the head, the Dutch braid lies on the head of the crown.

The whole secret of weaving such a braid is to weave individual strands into the braid not from above, but from below.
Separate a little hair at the crown to start the braid, divide this hair into three strands. Put the right strand under the middle one (now the right strand has become middle). Then lay the left strand under the middle one.
