How to braid cornrows


Welcome to this tutorial on how to make cornrows, or how to braid cornrows, it is a phase that I have been through during my dreadlocks journey it's nice to try different exotic hairstyles sometimes.
This is not actually the first time I do this hairstyle, I have had my hair braided before twice, but I must say, the second time I have had cornrows on my hair was the best, I loved the look of braids on me.
this is how to braid cornrows:


start by sectionning the hair, choose big or small sections depending on the look you want, then divide the section into three small sections, one hand holds two secions and the other hand
holds the third one. the hand that has two sections twists them to make the outter section becomes in the middle then the other hand grabs the middle section, then you do the same thing with the other hand. everytime you grab the middle section grab some hair from the scalp with it, to keep the braid attached to the scalp.




More about Braids and Cornrows from Wikipedia:
Cornrows, also known as braids, are a traditional African style of hair grooming where the hair is braided very close to the scalp, using an underhand, upward motion to produce a continuous, raised row. Cornrows are often formed, as the name implies, in simple, straight lines, but they can also be formed in complicated geometric or curvilinear designs.
Often favored for their easy maintenance, cornrows can be left in for weeks at a time if maintained through careful washing of the hair and regular oiling of the scalp.
Cornrowed hairstyles are often adorned with beads or cowry shells, in the African and Caribbean tradition. Depending on the region of the world, cornrows are typically worn by either men, women or both. Cornrows are known as canerow in parts of the Caribbean and the United Kingdom.
