To learn how to independently weave two identical and even pigtails on the head on the sides, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with several master classes.

The process of creating such a hairstyle includes the following steps:

• to begin with, the hair should be combed well with a massage comb, and then divided into two equal parts with a comb for parting;
• so that during the weaving of the first side, the other part of the hair does not interfere, they should be stabbed with a crab or clip;
• start with weaving the left side, which should also be divided into 2 parts - weaving should start from the top with two strands that must first be laid on top of each other with a cross, while it is best to fully use your hands - with your thumb you should hold the middle of the future spikelet;
• it is very important to weave braids, being next to the mirror, so the whole process of work will be clearly visible;

• when weaving a spikelet, one strand of hair should be taken on each side, while the weaving itself should be inside the braid;
• the classic version of the spikelet is tight so that the pigtail does not open, each strand should be tightened properly, moreover, this will give the future hairstyle a certain openwork; the better the spikelet is tightened, the longer it will last all day;
• after weaving comes to an end, the braid should be fixed with a small rubber band;
• the same should be done with the right side, braiding the same spikelet.

To braid a pair of fish tail, for a start you should practice doing a single one and only then, braiding two even braids will not be difficult. The weaving process includes the following steps:

• carefully combed hair should be divided along the vertical parting with a comb for parting, while working should be next to the mirror;
• the part that you will braid the second, while you should tie it with an elastic band or stab with a clip, otherwise the hair will interfere with the work, especially for beginners;
• Technically, a fishtail is not considered complex, but here you have to show assiduity;

• after separation, we work with only one side, start on the left - first you need to take one strand on the right side and shift it to the left side, and then repeat the same thing, on the contrary, take the strand on the left and shift it to the right, then these steps should be done until hair endings;
• after the braid should be fixed, it is advisable to tighten it as tight as possible so that it lasts all day and does not open in the process of wearing;
• then the same fish tail must be braided on the other hand, observing general symmetry;
• as a result, you should get two identical braids as in a mirror image.

Braids that weave on the contrary can also look very original. However, this version of weaving is considered quite complicated, so beginners with it may have to tinker. The weaving process is as follows:

1. well combed hair evenly divided into 2 parts by parting; we start working from one side, for example, from the left;
2. Now a small lock should be separated from the forehead, which should resemble a triangle in shape, then this lock should also be divided into 3 equal parts;
3. further, we should start weaving, not laying three strands on top of each other, but placing them in turn at the same angle;
4. weaving can be done in any direction; approaching the end of the hair, they need to be fixed with an elastic band;
5. with such weaving, it is not necessary to make the braid too tight, since in the future it will still have to be slightly dissolved for additional volume;
6. after weaving is completed on the one hand, the same should be done on the other;
7. To add to the braids more splendor and volume, curls from braids along the entire length should be slightly extended.

In order to braid beautifully and accurately, you should pay attention to the advice of professional hairdressers.

• It is recommended to comb long hair before braiding, and if it is prone to tangling, it is advisable to moisten it additionally. And also you should not weave braids on your newly washed hair, otherwise they will fall apart. The optimal time for weaving and hairstyles are 2-3 days after washing.
• Do not weave braids on wet hair, as this is very traumatic for them. In addition, wet hair is difficult to control, they constantly stick to hands.

• To make the braids fluffy and voluminous, previously the hair can be combed slightly. And also for extra volume you can use special powder or mousse.
• It is best to start weaving braids from two sides with simple patterns, especially if there are no skills in weaving at all. And only in the future can we move on to more complex techniques.

• For maximum convenience weaving braids should be held with thumbs on top, and the strands on the sides as if to pick up with little fingers. If you learn to use your hands correctly, then the spikelets will turn out very neat. Yes, and time to work will be significantly reduced.
• Girls with short hair should also not refuse to weave two braids. So, they can use additional false hair, which allows you to get the desired length for weaving braids.
