5. Single plait

What could be easier for a braid beginner than a single plait? With its simple, bold braid beginning at the base of the skull, this braid keeps even the thickest hair under control. Start by parting the hair down the middle. Then, gather the three equally divided portions of hair and create a simple box braid. For this style, very little experience with braiding is necessary.

To get the most out of this style, make sure your part is defined and the sections of hair are the same. This makes a look that is sophisticated and sharp, perfect for the office or after hours.
