If the hair is naughty, it’s best to moisten it with a special hair tonic, or just with water. So the hair will be easier to style and less electrified.

A braid is braided as follows:

• Then, the selected strand is divided into 3 equal parts plus a ribbon (the ribbon acts as a quadruple lock).
• For convenience, you can number the strands from left to right: No. 1, No. 2, insert the ribbon strand at number 3 and No. 4 – the extreme right strand.
