HOW TO MAKE A HERRINGBONE BRAID
- First comb your hair, it is important that there are no knots.
- To make the task easier, we advise you to gather your hair in a ponytail (high, low, side … the choice is yours).
- Divide your tail into two parts.
- From the right side, take a small lock that you will pass over the main one to join the left lock. The image will allow you to better understand the procedure: the lock indicated by the arrow must be rejoined to the left side,
