Hair Tutorial: Four Strand Braid

This hairstyle is really easy to master yet it will amaze your friends by it's unique look. You can style it in many ways, whether it's in your ponytail, wrapped around your head, a four strand French braid or the many other possibilities there are. Enjoy!

Start by splitting your hair into four equal strands, holding two in each hand. Start by taking the piece furthest to the left (1) over the one next to it (2). Then do the same with piece 3 and piece 4 (take piece 3 over piece 4). After this cross the two middle pieces over each other, with the one closest to the right (3) crossing over the one closer to the left (2). Keep repeating these 3 simple steps until you're finished!

It might be hard to get used to this at first, as holding 4 strands at once may be tricky at first. Once you've got the hang of this, it'll be easy. After a bit of practice, it'll only take a few minutes to complete this plait which looks like it took a lot longer!
