Hold the left section in your left hand
Hold the right section in your right hand
Keep the middle section centered
Cross the left section over the middle section
Move the old middle section to the left
Cross the right section over the new middle section
Move the old middle section to the right
Repeat alternating left and right crossings
Keep sections tight and even
Continue until you reach the ends
Secure the braid with a hair tie
