Hi my name is Lauren and today I'm going to tell you how to Cornrow hair. You're going
to start off by sectioning your hair into littler sections. You can, depending on how
you would like your Cornrows to look in order to add some style, you can either use a point
comb, a tail comb, and you can zig-zag it in order to achieve a zig-zag part so that
way when you do your Cornrows, you will have a zig-zag part or you may do a straight part.
Today, I'm going to do the straight part to show you exactly what it should be looking
like. Once you grab your first section, you're going to take two clips and you're going to
clip the rest of the hair away, especially doing it on your own, on yourself. It'll make
it easier and it'll avoid you from getting rid of your clear and crisp line. Now, once you have your sections in, you are
going to grab the first section of your Cornrow. You are going to split the front section into
three littler pieces. Try to do it as evenly as possibly just because it'll make your braid
nice and even. Once you do that, you are going to do a reverse French braid. French braids
normally go up and over, such as this. A Cornrow, you go under. So you will literally be bringing
the right piece underneath the center piece and vice versa for the other side. Once you
get about two or three in, you are going to grab a little bit more hair, add it, again,
now that we've connected this hair, you're going to bring the farther side underneath.
Add the hair to that side.
Bring it underneath. You're going to just keep adding a little bit more hair to each
section now, as you go. Always bringing that hair underneath the bottom of the braid. You're
going to continue it all the way down until you get to a, wherever it is that you would
like to stop. Some people use this as a headband. Other people Cornrow their entire head just
to keep their hair out of your face, and that is what your end result should look like and
you continue your sections for as many as you desire, and that is how to do a Cornrow.
