2. Cross Hair Sections
You may now cross sections, starting with the right over the middle section. Repeat such step with the left section. Remember to smooth the hair as you continue with crossing. An important tip: you must pull the section tight to ensure that the braid will not turn out loose and looking undone.
Every time you finish a cross-over motion, you have to gather and add hair into the section. You can now proceed to doing the same motion to the right hair section.

You must repeat the adding and crossing of hair section until you have reached the bottom of your hair. Finish by doing a regular braid at the bottom. It is a must that you add equal amount of hair to ensure consistency in the braid.
