DIY: Do a side part before separating hair horizontally – from below the right ear to the left. Tie the top section first to get it out of the way. Slice the bottom section vertically into two then braid each until the ends and secure with elastic. Pull the right braided strand over the top and across the opposite side and secure with pins. Do the same to the other braided strand. Make sure the ends are hidden for a clean look. Gather the top section into a low knot as a finishing touch.
