Braiding, for instance, can create a fuller look while simultaneously concealing areas of thinning.
It can be done gently to create fullness and protect the hair follicle.
All you need is a comb, two elastic bands, and about 10 minutes.
Continue braiding until you run out of hair and then secure with an elastic to seal.
Repeat on the opposite side.
Finally, take the loose ends and secure them with a bobby pin to combine with the opposite braid.
For more volume, lightly pull at the corners of the braid.
Applying powder dry shampoo before braiding will help with this texture when expanding.
You then continue braiding and incorporating it into the next section.
The sections are then braided starting with the natural hair.
Extensions are then ‘fed’ into [the] braid to add density and potential length to the look.
The process is nearly identical to the knotless braid, only box braids feature box-shaped sections, notes Dion.
The extension is added to the base of the subsection at the start of the braid.
This creates a thicker, longer look.
Typically, box braids are done by a professional and last about four to six weeks.
Lightly tug on the sections of the braid to create more fullness and use bobby pins to secure.
To get the look, create a ponytail, then place additional elastics every few inches down the ponytail.
Use your fingers to lightly tease the hair between each elastic and create a wide “bubble.”
Spray it with hairspray to fix the look.

Want to create a thick braid fast?
Use a bobby pin to secure the scarf so it won’t slip.
Then, split your hair into two sections, and use the scarf as the third, center section.
Tie it off with a hair tie at the bottom.
