1. First, apply dry shampoo to your hair.
2. Use your hairbrush to smooth your hair out. After brushing, scratch the scalp with your fingers to get more volume.
3. Now part your hair. Pick a rectangular section on the side of your preference. Split this section in two halves.
4. Pull its front part over to the back part. Now make the front part fuller by adding more hair.
5. Next, criss cross the front and back parts.
6. Repeat points 4 and 5.
7. Keep repeating this process as you go down.
8. The moment your braid reaches the shoulder, take more hair from the back of your head.
9. Now take the two parts of your hair from the bottom and twist them tightly in a counterclockwise manner.
10. When they start twisting without your help, twist them around in a clockwise manner.
11. Keep repeating points 9 and 10, going down.
12. Now take a hair tie and secure the end of your braid.
13. Loosen the braid a bit by pulling it out section by section.

by @Milabu

Before you jump to conclusions, here’s an easy rope braid tutorial for short hair. There’s a weird misconception that keeps women with short locks from wearing braids. What a shame, though! Follow these simple steps to turn your bob or lob into a braided masterpiece.

1. Starting with a deep side part, section off two equally small pieces of hair alongside the hairline.
2. Twist the two down to the ends, and secure the first rope braid with an elastic.
3. Then, repeat the same step, sectioning off two more small pieces of hair and turning them into ropes.
4. Once the twists are ready, pin them underneath your bob.
5. Now, you are free to experiment with the rest of your hair: you can wave your locks or put them in a bun.

We hope that this tutorial is enjoyable and helpful.
