The Rope Braid

You are here: Home >> Learn to Braid Your Hair >> Rope Braid
This is another braid that works best on a ponytail, preferably long and one length. You may want to start with damp hair.
Here's what a Rope Braid looks like.

1. Separate the ponytail into 3 strands. Hold 2 strands in the left hand and 1 in the right hand.

2. Wind the strand in your right hand around your index finger to the right. Then switch hands so that all 3 strands are in your right hand, separated with your fingers. Hold onto wound strand, so it does not unravel.

3. Bring the wound strand over so it is now on the left. Then switch all 3 strands back to the left hand.

4. Now your right hand can wind the right strand again. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to the end of the ponytail. Do Not release or the rope will unravel!

To secure Rope, fasten with a tight elastic.
