1 Comb your hair. First, comb your hair thoroughly. Matted hair with tangles and knots is much more difficult to braid.
  • 2 Part it. Since the side braid is an asymmetrical hairstyle, comb your hair to one side, it doesn't matter which side. The side braid will not extend downward from the back of the head.
    • If you want a more romantic look, you can do a slightly sloppy parting. If you want something more original, make a zigzag parting.
  • 3 Gather all the hair on one side. If you have a side parting, gather your hair on the opposite side of the parting. Make sure the shortest hair is long enough to be braided.
    • If the parting is on the right side, then the hair should be on the left. If the part is on the left side, then the hair should be on the right.
    • If your hair is medium in length but too short for one side braid, two braids on the sides may be fine. You can also try braiding one of these side braids along the hairline.
  • 4 Divide your hair into three sections. Take the entire bun of hair in your hands and divide it into three strands of equal thickness.
    • The area under your ear will be the base of your braid, so don't move the braid as you start to weave it.
    • It will be easier for you to handle strands if they are slightly damp. Pour water into a spray bottle and moisturize your hair while braiding.
  • 5 Braid your braid. Start under the ear and braid as usual. Take one of the outer strands and toss it over the center one, then take the strand from the other side and move it to the center. Continue to weave all three strands over and over.
  • 6 Stop at the desired length. It is best to stop before some of the strands in the braid are so short that they knock out of the braid to the sides.
  • 7 Secure the end of the braid. When finished, secure the end of the braid with an elastic band. Tuck the loose strands into the end of the braid. Apply hairspray to your hair if desired.
    • For a smoother look, use nail polish or hairpins to lock in the strands. If you want a softer and more casual hairstyle, leave the strands loose.
  • 8 If you want, you can free a few short strands from the total hair mass. Short strands that frame your face will soften your look. So if you have long side bangs or want a few curls to stick out at the base of your neck, release them now.

    • Method 2 of 4: French side braid

    1. 1 Comb your hair. Comb through your hair to remove tangles and knots before you start braiding. Decide which side you want to braid and comb your hair to that side.
      • If you want to make a parting, then it should be on the side opposite to the braid. If the braid will lie on the right shoulder, part it on the left, and vice versa.
      • If you do not want to part, then just comb your hair towards the side of the shoulder, on which your braid will lie.
    2. 2 Collect your hair. The braid should start under the ear opposite the side where you gathered your hair. If your braid will rest on your left shoulder, start braiding under your right ear. First, release a small amount of hair from the opposite side to braid the braid around the back of your head. It should be a triangular section 5–8 centimeters wide.
      • The idea is to cut the side braid across the base of the neck to the desired shoulder for a more romantic, complete look.
      • The same type of braid can also be braided from the crown of the head, starting from the parting line. To braid this way, follow the same instructions as for a regular side braid in French. The only difference is that your braid will start a few centimeters higher than usual.
    3. 3 Divide your hair into three sections. Make sure the strands are even and start braiding. Take one of the outer strands and place it on the center one, then take the other outer strand and move it to the center. Perform this procedure only once. Do not weave further yet.
    4. 4 Move on to weaving a French braid. The rest of the braid will remain French and you will tuck extra strands of hair into the top half of the braid.Every time you need to move the next top strand to the center of three strands, first add an additional bundle of loose hair lying on the other shoulder to it.
      • If you start braiding from the hairline above your forehead, pull the strands from the back of your head to the front. Braid diagonally down and obliquely towards the area below the opposite ear.
      • It is necessary to pick up the hair directly above the strand so that the hair on the back of the head does not intersect with each other, thereby spoiling the entire hairstyle.
      • Keep the braid tighter, but so that the strands are separated.
      • By the time the braid reaches the opposite side, you should include all the hair in it, not just a small part of the hair from which you started braiding.
      • If you start braiding from the top of your head, first braid it down in French, and when you get to your ear, change the direction to horizontal, braiding the braid along the line of the head. If you have very short hair, you can end the braid around the ear by securing it with a hairpin or hairpin.
    5. 5 Finish your braiding in a classic style. When you get to the opposite ear, braid the rest of the braid as usual. When finished, the braid will start at one shoulder and hang down at the end of the other.
    6. 6 Secure the end of the braid with a hair elastic. Secure the end of the braid with an elastic band. Style the loose strands and spray hairspray if desired.
      • Loosen the braid if you want your hairstyle to look slightly messy. This will also give the illusion of volume if you don't have very curvy hair.

    Method 3 of 4: Dutch Side Braid

    1. 1 Comb your hair to one side. Be sure to get rid of any tangles and knots. Do not part. This braid is easier to braid with hair on one side.
      • It is best to braid this braid on long hair without a cascade. Short strands can get out of the way when you brush them to the other side.
    2. 2 Collect your hair. Start braiding your hair over the eye opposite to the side where you combed your hair. Divide your hair into three separate strands, a few centimeters each.
      • If the hair is on the right shoulder, then the braid will start over the left eye, and vice versa.
    3. 3 Start braiding. Take the strand on the right and wind it under the middle one, then the strand on the left and also wind it under the middle one. Add hair to the center section, which should now be on the right.
      • The Dutch braid is essentially the opposite of the French braid. Instead of adding hair and braiding strands one on top of the other, here the hair is added to strands that are braided one under the other. Thus, the braid is above the hair, and not under it, as in the French version.
    4. 4 Continue adding hair. While braiding the braid, continue adding hair. Hold the braid close to your hairline while braiding along your scalp. Add hair to the outside of the braid by gathering hair from the back of the head. Continue braiding until all of your hair is in the braid.
    5. 5 Finish the hairstyle with a regular braid. Braid in a regular braid along the entire length of your hair. After that, secure the braid with an elastic band.

    Method 4 of 4: 4-strand side braid

    1. 1 Gather all your hair to one side. Comb them with a brush or comb if necessary.
      • You can part your hair if you like. If you have done a parting on one side, then you need to collect the hair on the other.
    2. 2 Divide your hair into two sections. Divide each of the strands into two more, so that in the end you get four.
    3. 3 Start braiding. Number each strand, as it is very easy to get tangled in them when weaving. Number the strands from left to right, 1 through 4. Place strand 2 over strand 1, then place strand 4 over strand 3. Each intersection should move the strand from right to left. After that, move from left to right strand 1 through strand 4.
      • Repeat these steps until you reach the end.At each new intersection, re-number the strands.
    4. 4 Secure the braid with an elastic band. When you get to the end of the braid, secure it.
      • If you wish, you can slightly loosen the braid to make it more curvaceous or give it a stylish casual look.
      • Use hairspray to keep your braid from fraying.

    Tips

    • Braid neatly, but not too tight, otherwise the braid will be stiff.
    • Do not apply hairspray to wet hair. The braid will turn out to be tough.
    • If you have a graduated haircut (cascade), use a balm or oil to prevent shorter hairs from slipping out of the hairstyle.
    • Apply hairspray to short, sticky hairs.
    • Try tucking the loose end of the braid behind an elastic band or dabbing on some gel to create sharp, pointed strands.
    • Stretch the strands of hair in the braid slightly to give it a tousled look.
    • Comb your hair well to avoid tangles.
    • Braid the braid tightly to keep it from falling apart.
