How to Braid Your Hair With a Side Part for a Sew In Hair Weave Extensions

Hair weaves are attached directly to natural hair braids.Braiding your hair with side parts is essential for preparing to sew in a hair weave. The trick to appropriately braiding your hair is to make your locks into cornrow. Cornrow are tight, narrow braids that section off the hair. Once the braids are completed, you or your hair designer will sew the hair weave directly into the cornrow. Side parting your hair means dividing the cornrow into individual sections, so scalp is showing between each row,this can ensure even and sturdy braids for natural look.
