From workout to work: Braids           

Inside-out boxer braids

Step one
Start by prepping your hair with a little root lift or sea salt, then blast dry with a hair dryer.

Step two
Using a comb, part your hair into two sections down the middle of your head.

Step three
At the top of your left side, use your fingers to portion off a small section of hair, then divide this section into three equal strands.

Step four
Begin by passing the outer strands of hair under the middle strand. After a few repetitions, add a little loose hair to each strand as you weave under. Continue this method until all of the hair on your left side has been added to the braid.

Step five
Once you reach the ends of your locks, fasten with a hair elastic.

Step six
Repeat on your right side.  

Fishtail plait 

Step one
Separate a portion of hair at the crown of your head, then split this section into two halves.

Step two
Take a small piece of loose hair from the outer left side and bring across into the hand holding the right section.

Step three
Repeat on your right side, adding a strand of loose hair to your left hand.

Step four
Continue this criss-cross method until all of your hair has been added to the braid.

Step five
Fasten at the end with a hair elastic.
