So, divide the mop into three main parts: 1, 2 and 3, and proceed to weaving. Place part number one under the second. The third number should be summed up under the first part. Having done this manipulation, you will get the first share of the braid.
Next, you need to weave two additional strands into the side of the braid and repeat the work done. Weave in this way until the hair ends. After that, fix the hair with a hairpin or elastic.
