Hair braid.  Let us give it some carelessness. By spreading the hair into three strands, let us make a classic hair braid by alternately crossing its side locks with the one that appears in the center. After a couple of crossings, divide one of the side locks in half. The far side is left for later (it will no longer be involved in the process) and cross the other lock with the central one.
