1.Eyeball the spot about halfway between the "V" of the hairline and the ear - about 2 inches above the ear.
![]()
2.Make a part at the eyeballed location, starting from the temple and running straight back as far as is convenient. I recommend you make the part slightly higher than I did in this example - this is more like an inch and a half rather than two inches.
![]()
3.Make a corresponding part on the opposite side of the head.
![]()
4.Make a part on the back of the head which connects the two side parts, separating off the hair on the top of the head from the rest of the hair.
![]()
5.Hair clip the hair on top of the head and forget about it for awhile.
![]()
6.Gather a section of hair nearest the face from the side of the head below the part.
![]()
7.Separate the hair into three strands.
![]()
8.Fold the upper strand over, trying to keep the braid as far down on the head as possible.
![]()
9.Fold the lower strand over, trying to keep the braid as far down on the head as possible.
![]()
10.Fold the upper strand over again, trying to keep the braid as far down on the head as possible.
![]()
11.Fold the lower strand over again, trying to keep the braid as far down on the head as possible.
![]()
12.From the head, gather a section of hair roughly the length of what you have just braided, taking the full width of hair from bottom to the part.
![]()
13.Add that section of hair to the upper strand of hair.
![]()
14.Repeat instructions 8-13, until you get about an inch and a half to two inches past the ear.
Note: As you get past the ear, keep the bottom of the section of hair you pick up in line with the hair you have been picking up, rather than following the hairline.
![]()
15.Continue braiding out as for a basic 3-strand, then fasten the end with a rubber band.
![]()
16.Repeat instructions 6-15 on the opposite side of the head.
Note: I recommend putting the part a bit higher on the head than I did in the example. However, some of the sloping of the braid is simply caused by the fact that the hair in front of his ears was once cut, and is now only an inch long and couldn't be used in the braid.
![]()
17.Unclip the hair on the top of the head and comb it smooth.
![]()
18.Separate the hair into two sections. To do this, I tend to hold it with my left and separate initially with my right. I then put my left-hand index finger through the same separation and use the right hand to separate the hair to the end of the strands.
![]()
19.Separate a small section off of the back of the right-hand strand.
![]()
20.Fold that section over its original strand and add it to the left-hand strand.
![]()
21.Separate a section off the back of the left hand strand. I tend to use the middle finger of my right hand to do this, allowing my right hand to firmly grasp both main strands, freeing my left hand.
![]()
22.Fold the section over the original strand and add it to the right-hand strand.
![]()
23.Hold the left strand in your left hand and the right strand in your right hand.
24.Use your right index finger to separate a section from the back of the right strand
![]()
25.Fold the section over the right strand and add it to the left-hand strand.
![]()
26.Use your left index finger to separate a section off the back of the left hand strand.
27.Fold the section over the left strand and add it to the right-hand strand.
![]()
28.Repeat instructions 24-27, keeping the size of the separated sections roughly equal.
Note: Smaller or larger sections give the braid a different look. Various-sized sections in the same braid just look bad.
![]()
29.Rubber band the end of the braid, and voila! A Legolas braid.
