Start to twist the little area of hair at the hairline.
Include Hair as You Braid.
This is the part where an interlace transforms into a cornrow. As you keep on braiding the hair, include hair from the area you’re meshing into the cornrow. This is the thing that joins the interlace to the scalp. Each time you get one of the three bits of hair to mesh, delicately pull hair from the separated off a segment and include it in as you plait. Include hair equitably for a uniform look.
Keep Meshing and Adding Hair to the Cornrow
Keep on braiding the segment of hair, including more hair into the cornrow as you work your way toward the end.
Detangle Sections of Hair
In case you’re making cornrows with fixed or loose hair, you will not have to detangle as you plait. In any case, regular hair, as envisioned, should be detangled as you work your way down segments. Essentially and delicately pull your fingers through the hair to work your way through so the twists will keep on being slick and uniform.
It’s useful to have a splash bottle close-by loaded with water, a water/leave-in conditioner blend or a water/characteristic oil blend to help with detangling.
Keep Meshing/Braiding
Once you’ve meshed the hair to the scalp, you’ll need to keep twisting if the hair is long. These twists won’t be connected to the head. So plait them as you would general meshes.
Repeat Around the Head
Here you can see a couple cornrows effectively completed and another area being set up for plaiting. Rehash the plaiting procedure the distance around the head, making a point to part segments a similar size.
Finished Cornrows
