Variety of braids

Braids are a great way to keep hair out of the face and keep you looking elegant and youthful. Braiding your hair is a nice change from wearing it in a pony tail. It is also a quick and easy way to change your look. There are several different types of braids including regular braid, French braid or fishtail braid, and once you get the hang of them, they are relatively simple to do yourself. All of the braids use three strands of hair at one time. Most braids also use the same type of technique, left-over-middle, right-over-middle, as you take the piece of hair and weave it on top of the other hair to complete the braid. Thanks to the availability of long hair extensions, you can braid them with your natural hair to get a new look. For instance, you will get a colorful braid when wearing 24 inch hair extensions in various colors.
