This step is technically optional, but to keep the hair a bit tighter and out of the face I found this helps. You can use as much or as little hair as you like. You’re making a small half ponytail.
On the right and left of the small ponytail section out two other sections of hair. Don’t use all the hair though. You’ll want to only use about half of the hair that is hanging down below your small ponytail
Pull the extra hair on the right up and through the first section at the top of the braid. Weave or wrap it through each section working your way down the braid.
As done in step 6, wrap the remaining hair that is left around the left side of the braid, weaving it in and out around the braid, starting at the top down to the bottom.
