Problem: Thinner braids that aren't red carpet ready aren't done by a braided lady. Fix #26: If you want to know how to make your French braids thicker, here's the big idea. Practice. Practice.

So here's…

How to braid thin, slippery hair

Problem: It's no secret that straight hair can be a braiding bear. Solution #13: In this case, for fine hair, I would try braiding second day hair (maybe after a light dose of dry shampoo so it's not greasy) only. Fix #15: If you're starting to lack hair on one side, be sure to grab larger pieces on the side with plenty and smaller ones on the side where you're missing hair. Solution #17: Rather than end up with just two strands to braid, borrow hair from one of the longest two to lengthen the short one and continue braiding. Fix #20: With longer hair, once you have no more hair to add, you can put the braid to the side and finish with a three-strand braid without killing your arms.

Another option is to stop braiding at the base of your head and tie the two braids together with rubber bands, leaving the rest of the hair as a pair of simple pigtails. #7: Mohawk French Braid

Another way to do something original with a simple French braid is to part the top of your head by taking only the middle hair and then braiding the rest - but stopping to add more hair when you reach the top of your head. #9: Pull the French Braid Back

Another super easy hairstyle could be done by French braiding the front of your head like you would a headband. #11: Side French Cornrow

If you're looking for something a little edgier – but still quick and easy to create – try braiding the hair from the side of the head backwards and finishing it when you're happy with the length. To start, do a French braid across the top of the head, middle or to one side - and tie it with the rest of the hair into a ponytail (which you can then style into a messy bun too)!
