This is Breanna Rutter from howtoblackhair.com and I'll be teaching you how to do cornrow braids with weave to begin make sure that you first to determine exactly the width you want your braids to be so use the end of your rat tail comb to part a section of hair that goes from the front of your head to the very back of your head make sure that as you are nearing the back that the width of your braids become a little bit thinner so that way you can effectively braid all of your braids to the very back of your head after that detangle your section of hair and then apply little bit hair gel to the ends keep your hairs slick as you are braiding now take your bundle of braiding hair and pinch off a section of hair that you are going to be using to create your cornrow braid and once you pinch that section off divide this hair into two parts one part will be a third of the original size and one part will be two thirds now grab the smaller size which is the one third wrap it around the biggest length which will be two thirds so that way you have three equal legs of a braid now take your dominant and your thumb index and middle finger and pinch it where the two parts need now grab your other hand and insert it through you hair and wrap your hand around so that you can put one of the legs between your pincher finger your thumb and your index grab a very small section of hair in front so that your braids start at your hair line and then what you are going to do when you add it is that you are going to twirl your right hand to effectively take your index go underneath the braids now this may seem a little bit confusing but as watching you will notice that the same process is done with the left hand them back to the right hand and then back to the left hand over and over and over again to create a braid so when you're creating a braid every time you have two legs of your braid one hand you have to twirl that hand to the outer side so that way you can loop your index underneath and grab an outer leg the best way of knowing how to cornrow braid is to follow along as you watch this tutorial because as you are seeing the movements you can mimic them yourself to effectively create a cornrow braid so now with the free hand grab that one leg twirl this hand on the outer edge insert your index scoop of the hair was on the outer edge so that that became the middle leg now as you see it more at a faster pace you understand that the same processes for both sides was always watch this tutorial in the slower version and make sure that you are doing exact

look at your braids to tell which are shorter and longer now in order to make it braids are even at the same length you have to cut the ends of braid where you want to team when it cut straight across after that you take down the to the braid just a bit and then you going to cut the loose hairs at an angle so that way when you re-braid it the tip of the braid comes to a point and it looks like what it originally should look like with tapered ends after you do this you are going to grab different size cold wave water rollers so that way you can get the rollers into the water without bringing up a lot of water with it is you use a sponge roller it’s going hold lot of water as you are twirling the ends make sure that what you finished well in the tips that you roll the length of the braid
