There are different types of braids included in our list, starting the regular braids which are the easy 3-strands. Here are the others:

French Braid

French braid or French plait is done by taking a small section of hair on the crown, dividing it to 3 sections and then doing a regular braid while gradually adding hair to each section that crosses another.

Dutch Braid

Dutch braid is basically the opposite of French braid. This is almost the same as French braid but the crossing is done under each strand.

Fishtail Braid

Fishtail braid looks like a regular braid but is a more intricate and woven piece. It is actually done with just parting the section of the hair into two. A small section of the parts are used to pass over to the other section. This is repeated until you reach the end of the braid.

Pancake braid

Pancake braid is simple. Just do a regular braid and then pull the braids to flatten it. Just make sure you don’t overdo it so the braid will not come loose.
