If you are interested in this article, then you (like me))) want to learn how to braid your daughter beautifully and stylishly. And since children often cannot do without braids when braiding their hair, we will begin to learn how to braid their hair – BRAIDS. At first glance, what’s so complicated about it, weave three strands and that’s it. I thought so too. And I was very upset when I couldn’t weave even two centimeters, everything got confused and didn’t work out. So let's learn together:

Regular braid

We will start learning from the very basics - from weaving an ordinary braid. As they say, “let’s get our hands on it” and move on to more complex options. The braiding technique is as follows: divide all the hair into 3 equal parts, take the right part and place it on the middle one, tightening them a little, then place the left part on it. So each strand alternately changes its position. We continue crossing until the very end and secure the hair at the bottom with an elastic band.

For sophistication, we can weave ribbons into braids or decorate them with bows. A regular braid can be woven on both long and medium hair. On very short ones, you can only weave along the head itself (but more on that later).

English braid

Not a difficult option either. It is a bunch of hair secured in a ponytail and braided into a regular braid. Simple and stylish. If desired, you can complicate the weaving. There are many variations. These include accessories (bows, elastic bands, ribbons...), and weaving several braids from one base or not from one, and combining them with another type of weaving.

Weaving English braids looks easy. In the diagram, this is a bunch of hair tied into a ponytail, then braided into a regular braid of 3 strands. At this stage, many descriptions end. However, this weave has many variations.

French braid

Our practice gets a little more complicated by doing French braids. All hair is involved here. First, we separate a wide strand near the forehead and begin to braid a regular simple braid. After a couple of bindings we pick up the strands from the side of the head. This continues until we weave them all into the hairstyle. And only then we weave a regular braid down. Let's look at French hair braiding for children:

As in previous weavings, interesting options are also possible in French. For example, braid 2 braids, 4 braids and combine them into one, etc.

Purl braid

It is also called the reverse French braid. The basis of the weave is the same as the usual French one, but the strands here are not laid on top of each other, but from below - under the previous one. After weaving, stretch the strands a little, making the braid wider and more voluminous. Visually, it will look like the braid is applied to the hair, which is very original. Yes, and it’s fashionable today.

Spikelet (fish tail)

It always seemed to me that the spikelet is very difficult to weave. But if you have learned how to braid French braids, then you can handle a spikelet in one or two seconds. To do this, divide the hair into two halves. Take a thin strand from the outer edge and attach it to the opposite strand of hair. And so, from left to right, or vice versa, the entire hair is intertwined. You can start from the top of the head, the back of the head, and even the tail.

In general, spikelets have many variations, especially beautiful with decoration:

Braid basket

Very convenient in the summer when it’s hot to walk around with your hair down. The basket “removes” all the hair up and opens the neck. In terms of weaving, this is an ordinary braid, only woven around the head, it looks like a basket. First, we pull all the hair into a ponytail on the top of the head, using a thin elastic band (so that the ponytail is not high). And we begin to braid the braid from the base clockwise. We take a strand from the tail and a strand from the edge of the hair growth. So we weave around the entire circumference.

We try to calculate the thickness and number of strands so that they end both at the tail and at the bottom at the same time. To do this, we regulate the process ourselves, selecting less or more hair. At the end of the braiding, we hide the ponytail under the braid with a hairpin or secure it with a hairpin.

There is an even more complex version of the basket - from the center of the head. In the form of a knuckle:

Braid-harness

Simply and easily! We distribute the hair into two strands. We twist each of them separately in one direction. For example, to the left. Like a rope. Then we connect these twisted strands together. We twist, only in the opposite direction - to the right. We secure the ends of the strands with a bow or elastic band. For variety: you can start braiding with a high ponytail, you can twist the strand into a bun at the top, you can even braid it with a basket. Very beautiful and festive:

Thin braids

It seems simple, but comfortable and even elegant. Thin braids can be braided, styled, or scattered over the head. You can decorate with bright elastic bands, bows or hairpins.

Rubber braids

There is another novelty in today's weaving - this is weaving from rubber bands. Very simple and unusual. We braid a regular high ponytail. We separate strands from the right and left and tie them with a thin elastic band (preferably silicone). We straighten the braided strands a little. As if making them more voluminous. Now take the next two strands and tie them with an elastic band on top - above the previous strand. Adding volume. And so on. It turns out voluminous, a little careless, but this is the whole stylishness of this hairstyle. Try it! This is the perfect weave for beginners!

For daily “quick” hairstyles, choose those weaves that take no more than 10-15 minutes to braid. So as not to torment both the child and yourself) because in the morning there is no time for long sittings.

If the hair is the same length, it will be much easier to braid it than if it is of different lengths. To do this, prepare a ribbon or lace that you weave into the braid; they will hold together strands of different lengths, and will also make the braid more voluminous and elegant.

To separate strands from all hair, use a fine-tipped comb. The braid will turn out smooth and professional.

And finally, about choosing a braid. Tight, dense weaves are of course suitable for kindergarten-school-sports, BUT do not overdo it. Very tight hairstyles will only cause discomfort in the child. The girl will constantly think about how to unravel everything faster. And it can damage the hair structure.

Extraordinary simplicity

How to learn to weave different braids for children? Everyone remembers the simplest version of weaving: we divide the entire mass of hair into three parts, throw the left strand over the middle one, then the right one over the middle one (which was the left one), and so on.

Advice! To make braids on short hair last longer, braid them as tightly as possible.

There are many variations with a regular braid:

option number 1. Braid two braids along the usual parting, secure the ends with bright bows. You can make a couple of small braids across the parting (from ear to ear), this will make the hairstyle more unusual;
option No. 2. Divide the entire head into 4-6 parts. Braid one braid in each. Gather all the braids into one fluffy ponytail; this braiding looks very impressive against the background of bangs;
option No. 3. Divide the head into two parts, tie each into a ponytail. Make a pigtail from each ponytail and wrap it around an elastic band, secure with a bobby pin. As a result, you will get two cute buns from braids.

French style weaving

Only the name of the hairstyle is unusual, but it is simply an inside-out braid. That is, initially the strand should not be placed on top, but tucked under the middle one. The technique is simple to perform and looks very beautiful. At the end of the braiding, you can pull out a little loop, so you get a voluminous braid.

Original snake

How to braid hair for beginners: video

Video - lesson on how to braid hair with ribbon:

In this article you will learn the basic techniques of braiding with step-by-step photos.

After reading it, you will be able to independently create both everyday simple and the most sophisticated and extraordinary designer hairstyles.

Braiding step by step photos: varieties

The braid is not only one of the most feminine, but also practical hairstyles. With braided hair, you can easily walk throughout the day without fear of it becoming disheveled. Moreover, such a hairstyle is quite universal and looks natural and harmonious both in a business setting and at a youth party.

There are several main types of braiding:

classical Russian;
European: Swiss, Greek, English, Dutch and famous French weaving;
eastern: plaits (side braids), ropes, threads, braids, zizi, curls, rastas, etc.; the last three types can also be used for short hair;
designer: “French waterfall”, knotted braids, Lino Russo, “basket”, “dragon”, “fishtail”, “figure eight”, etc.

The best way to master any of the techniques is to watch video tutorials on this topic or study photographs of step-by-step braiding. Moreover, for any of these weaves you can use not only your own hair, but also false strands or hairpieces. Their color can either match or contrast with your own hair color: the main thing is not to use more than three colors at the same time.

Advice! Recently, the so-called careless styling has become very popular, which can be used with any type of weaving. But even in this case, the strands should be pulled together evenly and not stray from the overall style. Otherwise, the hairstyle will look simply sloppy.

Classic braids

The traditional Russian braid has long been a frequent guest on many famous catwalks: the Valentino fashion house, theatrical shows of Victor&Rolf, Emerson, etc. Today it is presented in various variations: from braiding on the back, sides or top of the head to creating the most intricate hairstyles of the two and more braids However, it’s not difficult to master even such complex types of braiding yourself with the help of step-by-step photos.

The traditional Russian braid consists of three equal strands that are intertwined alternately. It can be not only smooth, but also voluminous, slightly disheveled, multi-colored, asymmetrical, or used in combination with other types of hairstyles. The hair can be parted straight or sideways, asymmetrically, or have no parting at all. The weaving density and the number of strands used can also vary.

One of the varieties of the Russian braid is the “spikelet” braiding: a technique that allows you to achieve volume and pomp in your hair. In this case, only two strands are used with the sequential addition of new ones. The order in which they are added may vary. However, for the hairstyle to look neat, the thickness of each new strand added should be the same.

Advice! Perfectly smooth braids look too strict, so you should let individual strands stick out a little.

Straight from Europe

Designers distinguish several options for weaving that came to us from Europe:

Swiss braid: it is woven according to the Russian principle, but before that, each of the strands is twisted into a tight strand, due to which the hairstyle looks more voluminous; This type of weaving goes perfectly with any style and looks great with jeans or an open summer dress, as well as with a business or cocktail suit; step-by-step weaving of such braids for medium hair or hair of maximum length can be seen below;
French weaving: unlike the “spikelet”, the strands are not woven one on top of the other, but are laid inside; the braid begins with a small bun, divided into 3 main strands, with the gradual addition of additional strands after 2-3 cm so that at the end of the braiding all the hair is collected; strands can be taken from one or both sides; weaving can be direct (towards you) or reverse (away from you); start from the crown or pass throughout the head in the form of a wreath;

English: its only difference from the Russian version is that the braiding begins with a ponytail, attached to the back of the head or closer to the crown; Similar braiding for long hair is shown in the step-by-step photo;
Dutch: braid “inside out”; the woven strands do not hide inside the hair, but rise above it;
Greek: a combination of smooth hair and a braid that resembles a headband that runs across the entire head; in this case, three small strands are taken closer to the parting, the rest of the hair is pinned up for a while; small strands are gradually added in a circle, with the help of which such a headband-braid is firmly held on the head; There can be two braids, in which case they start on both sides of the parting, and then are cut into one at the back of the head.

Advice! Stylists advise doing a little backcombing at the roots before braiding. It will make your hair more voluminous and your hairstyle more feminine. This technique is especially relevant when creating evening hairstyles.

Oriental tales

A distinctive feature of such hairstyles is the intricate shapes and the presence of large, eye-catching decorations:

strands (Sinhala braids or screw braids): the hair is divided into two equal strands, each of which is twisted in one direction; then both strands cross and twist in the opposite direction; harnesses can be used in combination with loose strands, a ponytail, side braids, etc.;

rope braids: a side parting is made on the hair, and braiding (twisting two small strands) begins on the side where there is more hair; when passing such a braid, new small strands are added around the head; at the level of the back of the head it intertwines with the main mass of hair in the direction opposite to the main weave;
Afro braids (braids): many small braids weaving from the back of the head to the temples; you can let them loose, create one or several thick braids from them, make a tail out of them, twist them into a shell, etc.;

zizi: a type of braid, ultra-thin braids made of artificial hair, created using machine weaving; woven into each individual strand of their own hair;
Curly: the method is similar to zizi, but the curls are twisted into a tight spiral; can be used for extensions.

With the help of step-by-step photos for beginners, you can master braiding quite quickly. The main thing is patience and extreme care.

Advice! Unraveling small braids is quite problematic. To make this procedure easier, before creating a hairstyle, the hair should be thoroughly washed with a cleansing shampoo, not an ordinary one, and then any high-quality balm should be applied to it.

Modern design techniques used in weaving

In recent years, braided hairstyles have received the most unexpected interpretation. However, any design techniques are, in fact, improved ethnic versions of the Russian, European and Oriental versions:

“French waterfall”: resembles the usual one or two braids, starting at the temples and ending at the back of the head; however, each lower strand is released into “free floating” and falls freely onto the back. The hairstyle can have all sorts of variations: be asymmetrical, go over any part of the head, sag, etc. It can be used even on short hair;

knot braid: two strands are connected to each other using a series of knots; in this case, both part of the hair can be woven (one or two small knots are used as a kind of decoration), or its entire volume;
Lino Russo: a combination of knots and the “spikelet” technique. After each knot, new hairs are added to the already selected strands; for such a hairstyle, the hair must be cut evenly and be the same along the entire length;
“snake”: a regular French braid is not located along one line, but meanders over the entire surface of the head; may have 2-3 or more spreads;
“basket”: part of the hair on the top of the head is gathered into a high ponytail, then a regular French braid is woven from the temple with alternate addition of strands from the ponytail and free hair;

cornrow braiding: classic afro braids are arranged all over the head in the form of a geometric pattern reminiscent of rows of corn (from the English corn - corn and row - row); To obtain such a pattern, each miniature braid is braided in the manner of a classic French braid.

Advice!To make it easier to weave when creating a braided hairstyle, you can use any styling products: foam, varnish or gel.

Braiding for short hair

Thanks to improved braiding methods and the availability of modern means of fixation, you can decorate yourself with braids even if you have short hair:

“headband”: two braids are braided at the temples, and then secured with hairpins at the back of the head;
braid parting: a weave of side strands located on one or both sides of the face;
bangs with a double braid: the upper part of the face is framed by two small braids;
a braid around the head: can be located in any part of it, pass over the entire head, or located to the left, right of the face, or braided only at the back of the head;
“French bangs”: long bangs can be pulled to the side in the form of a French braid; since in the case of a short haircut the hairs will invariably stick out on the sides, you should fluff and tousle the rest of the hair so that it looks as organic as possible;
a combination of the “punk” style and the French braid: some of the curls are combed in the form of a mohawk; the side strands are braided.

In order to give a girl such a hairstyle, you need to take a comb, a beautiful elastic band or ribbon to secure it. You can also use gentle styling products to prevent excess strands from getting out of your hairstyle.

The traditional braid is braided as follows:

First, comb the strands properly, then lightly moisten them or apply styling products to them.
Next, the curls should be gathered into a ponytail so that no strands come out of it.
The tail is then divided into three equal parts.
Weaving begins with the far right strand. It is placed on top of the one in the middle, and it becomes central.
Next, the same manipulation is performed with the left strand. It is placed on top of the central one between it and the right part of the hair. This procedure must be performed alternately with both strands until the braid reaches the end.
You need to secure the end of the braid with a ribbon or hair tie.

Braids for medium length hair

A hairstyle like a braid looks beautiful not only on long curls, but also on medium-length hair. Experts in the field of hairdressing have identified several types of weaving that will look most successful on strands of this length.

When all the hair from the ponytail is braided into a braid, its end needs to be intercepted with an elastic band and done exactly the same on the other side.
When both braids are ready, tie them with a ribbon, overlapping each other.

To weave a four-strand braid you need:

Comb your hair and moisten it a little with water. This way the strands will lie better.

Next, divide the selected strand into four parts. The outermost one, which is on the right, must be placed on the third, and then the second must be placed on the third.

After the braid is braided on one side, you need to do the same on the other side and connect them together.

This beautiful hairstyle (like the famous Princess Jasmine) is best done with thick hair. But if they are thin and there are not as many of them as you would like, you can add volume using a corrugated iron.

When choosing an everyday braid, you should give preference to the one whose weaving does not take longer than 15 minutes. This will allow you to get enough sleep and not be late for kindergarten or school.
Long hair of the same length is best suited for braiding. If the child’s haircut is multi-layered or graduated, then hairpins and bobby pins should be used.
Ribbons and braids woven into the braid make it more voluminous and beautiful.
It is more convenient to do the parting with a comb with a thin end. This will allow him to be more careful.

The braid has been and remains one of the most popular hairstyles, as it is a win-win option for both everyday wear and various celebrations. In addition, this hairstyle can be done on curls of any length and thickness. But it is worth remembering that the perfect beautiful braid may not turn out the first time, so you should be patient.
