FAQ
What type of braid is the easiest to learn?
The most simple braid to learn is the classic three-strand braid. It’s the foundation of almost every braiding style. If you’re a beginner, this is where you should start.
Is it easier to braid dirty hair?
Never braid dirty hair or wet hair. Greasy strands don’t feel good between your fingers and won’t be voluminous as clean hair. Dry hair is easy to manipulate than wet. Braiding your hair while it’s still wet can cause damage and break your hair strands, leading to hair loss. Hair is at its strongest state and has a stronger hold when dry.
Should I braid my hair when I sleep?
Yes. Braiding your hair while sleeping can stop it from tangling and breaking. It can also give you soft beachy waves when you wake up and lessen the frizz.
