Braiding hair for medium hair - step-by-step master class. A braid is a girl’s beauty, but sometimes many of us can only dream of tight long braids, because the length of our hair does not always allow us to braid an ornate “spikelet” or “Boho braid.” There is no need to be sad about this, because even with medium-length hair you can create a miracle by braiding it in a braid that is so popular this season. Naturally, the average hair length does not allow you to experiment as much as possible with different braiding styles, but you can still create several original, sophisticated and uncomplicated hairstyles.

Before you start braiding your hair, you should wash it. Many stylists pay attention to the fact that a braid on medium and short hair will hold tighter if you use various styling products when creating your hairstyle: gel, mousse, styling wax and fixing varnish. Let's take a closer look at some types of weaving. I would also like to separately note that you can easily make all the braids listed below yourself, thanks to the detailed instructions and execution diagram. ­

Spikelet

This hairstyle is very convenient because the hair, collected in a spike, does not fall apart, the bangs do not get into the eyes - ideal for a trip to nature or for going to college.

Instructions:

  1. Divide your hair into three strands as you would for a regular braid.
  2. Separate the strand that is located at the base of the frontal part, then take small strands on the right and left along the hairline and weave them into the main braid.
  3. Cross the strands as in a regular braid, gradually weaving in the side hairs.
  4. We extend the spikelet until all the side strands are woven into the braid.

To give your hairstyle originality and uniqueness, braid the spikelet from the bottom up. Tilt your head forward, comb your mane thoroughly and apply styling gel. At the base of the hair growth on the back of the head, form three strands of equal thickness and begin weaving a spikelet according to the instructions above, only try to weave wide side strands with each pass. As soon as you reach the top of the head, secure the spikelet tail with a clip or elastic band, and arrange the ends of the spikelet as you wish. This picture shows a pattern of weaving a spikelet:

This hairstyle differs from a regular braid in that only strands in the direction of hair growth are woven into the braid, while the hair on the opposite side of the hairstyle remains untouched. The half-spikelet is excellent, easy to make at home.

Instructions:

  1. Divide your hair into three equal strands.
  2. Start weaving them into a braid from the forehead line towards the back of the head. Try to braid the strands as close to the base of the hair as possible, so the hairstyle will be stronger and more beautiful.
  3. The ends of the hair need to be folded inward and secured with bobby pins.

Whether you are going on a romantic date or simply want to add chic and casual elegance to your look, then a bohemian braid will help you achieve the desired effect. As a rule, this hairstyle is done on the side of the head, and in the process of creating Boho, strands are woven not only from the bangs, but also hairs from the main part. The principle of creating a bohemian braid is the same as a French one, that is, you need to apply hair to the main middle part, both on the right and on the left, until the bangs end. Of course, you can extend the braid to ear level or even lower. If you want your hairstyle to be unique and original, place a silk ribbon on one of the strands and secure its ends with a hairpin with a pebble, bead or flower. This type of braiding is quick to perform and is suitable for both thick and thin hair.

There are several varieties of this braid, but only one fact remains unchanged - it is braided only along the edge of the hair. It’s not difficult to create the appearance of a Greek goddess; you can braid yourself yourself, without the help of strangers. This hairstyle is suitable for every day - to school, college, work, and also acts as a festive hairstyle, for a wedding. Follow the step-by-step instructions:
  1. We comb our hair and select an even parting along the line from the frontal part to the back of the head. We temporarily secure the part of the hair on the right side of the parting with some kind of clip so that it does not get in the way while working.
  2. On the left side of the parting, we separate a small bunch near the temporal zone and divide it into three equal parts.
  3. We twist the braids counterclockwise, weaving small curls from the bottom in each cross movement. We continue weaving until we reach the middle of the back of the head. Try to braid the braid as tightly as possible so that individual curls do not come out of it. The ends of the hair are temporarily secured with an elastic band.
  4. Next, we weave the same braid on the right side, after which the right and left braids can be woven into one, or their ends can be secured and hidden using bobby pins.

This is another elegant styling option. Based on this weaving technique, you can create many different hairstyles. In principle, they all differ from others in that in the process of weaving, not all the hair is first used, but only some small tufts, and others are gradually woven into them. The French braid has many weaving options, which makes it possible to make it into a regular everyday hairstyle, as well as an evening or even wedding hairstyle. The advantages of this type of styling include the fact that anyone can handle French weaving, so in this case you will not need the services of an experienced hairdresser.

Instructions:

  1. Before styling, wash your hair with shampoo according to your hair type. Comb your hair thoroughly with a wide-tooth comb, then use mousse to add volume and fullness.
  2. Using a thin comb, separate a strand in the shape of a triangle, starting from the frontal part, moving towards the crown. Secure this bun with an elastic band.
  3. Next, start braiding your hair according to the classic principle, only now gradually weave the hair from the right and left sides into the main strand, while making sure that the side curls are the same in thickness. Remember also that the side strands on the right side should always pass over the central one, and not vice versa.
  4. Continue to perform these steps until the side hair ends; the end of the braid must be braided and secured with an elastic band. With the help of such a hair weave, the effect of a thick and lush braid is created.

If many types of braids require tight weaving, then for their French variety you will additionally have to give the effect of negligence. This is done quite simply: do not braid the strands too tightly, and after every 2-3 passes, deliberately stretch them to the side. You can stretch the entire strand evenly, or you can stop only on some parts of it, then the effect will be different, which will give the image something unusual, and the hairstyle will look like openwork lace. This photo shows step by step how to braid a braid.

This type of braid is woven according to the French principle; it is often braided by girls during their school years, since all the hairs are tightly woven into this hairstyle so that the hairs do not stick out and interfere with schoolgirls while studying. But this styling option is not at all for children; it can also be done by adults. This .
  1. Weave the “dragon” according to the principle of French weaving, the only difference here is that when crossing the strands, bring them under the central strand, and not on top of it.
  2. Each time you cross a curl, we select a few hairs, thereby expanding the braid and increasing the volume. This technique allows you to make the braid voluminous and original.

Braid-harness

Harnesses are an excellent alternative to regular braids. The undeniable advantage of plaits is that they are very easy to braid yourself; even beginners can handle it without any problems. Plaits add texture and uniqueness to the hairstyle.

Instructions:

  1. Gather your hair high on the top of your head into a ponytail, which is secured with a strong elastic band.
  2. Form two strands of equal thickness.
  3. Twist the right one to the right side so many times to get the semblance of a flagellum of a thickness that suits you. Hold the ends of the tail with your fingers to prevent them from unwinding.
  4. With the left strand, repeat the same movements, but twist it in the same direction as the right, and not vice versa. Secure the ends.
  5. Next, twist the bundles together in the opposite direction, securing them at the bottom with an elastic band.

Spit-waterfall

elegant, unusual and cool, they are simply ideal for an evening out. The secret to creating the effect of flowing hair is that the lower strands are constantly released, rather than fixed in the braid.
  1. We begin to braid the “waterfall” from the front part of the head, where we divide the bun into three identical strands.
  2. Next, perform the same steps as you do when weaving a regular classic braid, only release the bottom strand and replace it with a new one taken from the top of the hair.
  3. Create a “waterfall” moving towards the opposite ear, secure the ends of the hair with a clip or tape.

A waterfall hairstyle can either encircle the head like a wreath or go down a cascade of braids. Special craftsmen manage to perform double weaving, making the waterfall look even more extravagant and interesting. This braid looks most beautiful when combined with wavy hair. If you cannot boast of natural curls, then the ends of the waterfall can

If previously only the classic three-strand braid was popular among women, now there are a huge variety of varieties. Photos with step-by-step instructions for braiding can be found on the Internet, so even complex techniques are suitable for beginners. The hairstyle and its variations are not only beautiful, but also practical, convenient and appropriate in any situation.

Classic three-strand braid

Before starting work, the head is lubricated with a special product that makes combing easier. Divide the entire mass of hair into three parts. The right strand is overlapped with the middle one and ends up in the middle. The left one overlaps the middle one (right) and also ends up in the middle. Continue in this sequence until the hair is completely braided.

How to braid a braid with ribbons

The principle of weaving with ribbons is the same as that of a regular braid, the only difference being that in this case a ribbon is added and the work begins not on the right side, but on the left.

This is done like this:

  1. The hair is divided into three parts and a ribbon is tied to the middle one.
  2. The left curl is placed on the middle one and, threading it under the ribbon, is placed on the right strand.
  3. The tape is passed under the middle strand and placed between the 2nd and 3rd.
  4. According to this pattern, braid to the end and tie with an elastic band or ribbon.
  5. The links are slightly relaxed to give the hairstyle some delicacy and lightness.

French braid

Weaving a French braid is accessible even for beginners, if you follow the step-by-step photos in the following sequence:


Danish braid

To weave this braid, the curls must be soft and manageable, so immediately before starting, lightly lubricate them with conditioner and sprinkle with water. If at first it is difficult to understand the technique, then you can learn from step-by-step photos for beginners. It is better to do this hairstyle on a head that was washed 1-2 days ago, otherwise the hairstyle will not hold and will quickly fall apart.

Work starts from the top of the head. Take a strand and divide it into three parts. The point is that during braiding, the curls are not placed on top, as usual, but placed underneath. Sometimes this technique is also called “reverse French braid.” At the end of the hairstyle, you can slightly relax it to add volume and fix it with hairspray.

“Fishtail” step by step with photos


How to braid a braid with elastic bands

There are two options using rubber bands:

  1. With a throw.

Tie a tail (of any height) and divide it into 4 equal parts. The two outer ones are connected together on top of the middle ones, and an elastic band is tied on them. Next, divide the lower curls into 2 parts and connect them at the top, and also tie them with an elastic band. The hair that was on top will now be on the bottom. And so on until everyone is woven in.

  1. With threading.

Tie the tail and separate the top and bottom. They put an elastic band on top, stepping back a few centimeters from the one that holds the tail. The bottom strand is passed through the top, pulled up and also tied with an elastic band. The one on the bottom is passed through the top and tied with an elastic band.

And then on the same principle. At the end, you can relax the rings of the braid, giving your hairstyle a fullness. The main thing is to tie the elastic bands at the same distance and do not forget to tighten them every time after the curls are pulled up.

Braid twist or harness

This hairstyle is simple, so it’s easy to do it yourself.

  1. Tie a high or low ponytail.
  2. Divide into 2 (or 3) parts.
  3. Twist each one into a rope, wrapping it around your finger. It is important that you need to twist in one direction, otherwise nothing will work.
  4. The bundles are intertwined.

Waterfall braiding for medium hair

Braiding (a step-by-step photo for beginners will help you understand the technique and quickly master the creation of even complex modifications) can be done using the “Waterfall” technique.

The “Waterfall” braid can be:

  • four-strand;
  • multi-row;
  • around the head;
  • volumetric.

Four-strand:

Braided with a straight or side parting. Separate 4 strands on the left side. The countdown starts from the face. The second is the thinnest, the rest are the same in volume. The 1st is carried out under the 2nd and above the 3rd, and the 4th - under the 3rd and above the 2nd.

Then a pick-up is made - a small number of curls from the total mass are attached to the outer strand. Next, the 2nd is carried out over the 3rd, under the 4th.


Four-strand braiding suits any hair color

The first curl is pulled aside. They replace it with a small amount of hair from the total mass, which is taken from below and carried under the 3rd, above the 2nd curl. This is followed by the same combination with the addition of strands, but not only from below, but also from above. And so on according to the scheme.

Multi-row braid “Waterfall”

It is woven in a similar pattern, but in several rows. It should be noted that if there are several rows, then you should start at the level of the top point of the ear.

The braids should go symmetrically, relative to each other.

  1. Around the head. It weaves in a similar way, but from one temple to another. You can finish it with a classic version or leave it loose.
  2. Volumetric. To give the hairstyle volume, pull out the elements of the braid, moving from end to beginning, holding it with your hand. Fix with varnish.

Waterfall from braids

The “waterfall of braids” hairstyle is woven according to the same principle as the option just discussed, with the only difference being that the strands, which are left and fall freely, are braided into thin classic braids.


Braiding waterfall braids with braids step by step with photos for beginners

Four-strand braid


Five strand braid

From five strands you can braid a classic or French, Danish or checkerboard braid using a ribbon. The countdown starts from the left. You should consider the basis of weaving a five-strand hairstyle, which is standard for all varieties (depending on the variety, additional steps are added to the main steps).

  1. Stage 1 - the first 3 strands are crossed in the same way as when creating a classic look - the 1st is placed on the 2nd and passed under the 3rd, it ends up between the 2nd and 3rd.
  2. Stage 2 – the 5th is placed on top of the 4th and passed under the 1st.
  3. Stage 3 - 2nd over 3rd, under 5th.
  4. Stage 4 - 4th under the 5th, above the 1st and under the 2nd.
  5. Continue starting from the first stage.

At first, you can tie the tail at the back of the head and weave from its mass.

French headband

This styling is done for different lengths, even short ones.

  1. The hair is divided into 2 parts along a horizontal parting. One will be braided, and the second will remain loose and gathered into a ponytail.
  2. Start from one ear to the other. The principle is the same as a regular French braid, i.e. with picking up strands.
  3. Secure with an elastic band or bobby pin, tucking the hair inward from the opposite side. Fix with varnish.

Four-strand French braid

Braid in braid: master class


French spirals for long hair

  1. The basis is strands laid in a special way.
  2. The division occurs in such a way that a V shape is formed at the top of the head, i.e. The parting is done from the temple to the crown and from the crown to the opposite temple.
  3. The selected area is shifted to the left and the tourniquet is twisted clockwise.
  4. They take a strand from the left, put it on the main one, twist it a little around it and twist it together into a bundle.
  5. Take a strand from the right side and repeat the above steps, but place it not on top of the main strand, but under it. At the end they twist it and pin it with a bobby pin.
  6. The main thing is not to forget that the hair should be constantly shifted from side to side.

Mermaid braid

The romantic, light and airy look looks impressive on both thin and thick curls and can be combined with any look.

  1. Take curls from the temples and connect them at the back of the head.
  2. At the junction, begin to weave a regular braid, making occasional grabs on both sides.
  3. With such tiebacks, you can braid to the end, or you can limit yourself to a small amount and continue to braid a regular braid.

Braid heart

  1. The parting is done vertically in the center. One part is secured with a hairpin so that it does not interfere.
  2. On the side to be worked on, make a semicircular parting from the crown to the temple, using a thin comb.
  3. The lower curls are also pinned.

  4. Work begins from the point where the 2 partings intersect. Weaving technique - French braid. Strands for weaving are taken from the top of the head.
  5. Having reached the area behind the ear, weaving continues using the French technique, but additional curls are already taken from the middle and bottom. As a result, a small tail remains, which is temporarily fixed with an elastic band.
  6. On the other side, repeat the previous steps.
  7. Once the braids are the same length, they are joined together and braided in the middle using the same technique.

Snake braid for girls

The parting is done on the side. Separate a strand of medium length from the front and begin to weave a French purl braid, picking up strands only from the side of the forehead. It should run parallel to it.

Then the weaving is turned in the other direction and continued using the same technique, only now the curls are picked up from the opposite side. The braids should be parallel to each other. You can leave a tail at the end or braid it to the end.

There will be no unknown moments in creating beautiful hairstyles if you learn braiding techniques using step-by-step photos and detailed instructions that are suitable for beginners.

This hairstyle looks good on hair of any length. Despite the fact that there are already enough techniques: these are three-, four- and five-strand braids, the “waterfall” technique, French and Danish braids, braids with elastic bands, and a snake. The options can be combined with each other, and then there will be even more opportunities to change the image.
