Getting a braid hair style can be time consuming but it wears well and lasts for days if it is treated properly. On an average, it takes about 2-3 hours to get a braid hair style done for the entire head. The advantage of braided hairstyles is that they can be washed and worn while swimming. All you need to do is blot the braids dry with a towel and avoid rubbing them.

Once you get yourself to learn braiding, it is a matter of time and practice when you can put a braid in someone's hair or even your own. Start a braid hairstyle on clean washed hair. Blow-dry it if necessary to get a more even texture. Smoothen flyway hair before you begin the braid hairstyle. Braids are created with hair partitioned into three sections. Continue braiding till you achieve the desired length of hair. The tension on the braid must be uniform else it will twist to one side instead of lying flat.

The braid hairstyle can have its variations such as bangs and tendrils in the front. You can use braids in buns, chignons or left loose. Try your hand at overhand braiding and underhand braiding for a different look each time. Dressed up with flowers or jewels, braid hair styles can be worn for a formal event. Other than basic braids, you can try variants with ribbons, beads, pearls and colored string. Set off various braid hairstyles with aesthetically placed beads, iridescent white or silver and gold or use strands of pearls for a thicker effect. Use a styling spray to keep the braid hairstyle in place.

Its hard to describe with words. I wish I could show you. Its like a regular braid, only you start with a small section near your forehead...
then as you braid you add another section of hair each time before you weave the next braid.

To add the next section, I usually just use my thumb and run it in a straight line against my head from the bottom of my ear up to the top of my head, then add that section to the braid, weave, then do the same on the other side. then I keep running my thumb against my head to grab another section, working my way back.
Other people use a comb to keep the parts perfectly straight, but I have trouble doing that when I am doing my own hair.

divide you hair into three sections at the top of your head. As you overlap a section of hair grab a strip of hair from your scalp, starting at your hairline. Continue going down the back of you head with the same technique until you have no more hair on your head. Then finish braiding your hair by overlapping the sections you have remaining.
