Thanks yaya, I'll try that! My forearms were burning after this, I couldn't have lasted if my hair was down to my butt either!
Lil, my hair is actually one length, minus some in the front. I used to have layers but I grew it all out for the sole purpose of being able to braid my hair again. ?
Do you watch yourself in the mirror? If so, try NOT doing that. That's how I taught myself. It made it easier to just feel the braid as it happened instead of focusing on what direction my hands and hair are going.

Try braiding it damp and tightening up the braid when you get to the bottom. The top looks great!

What yaya says should work. You could even go a fishtail braid. Easier and look nicer I think.
I gave up braiding mine once it hit my arse. My arms get too sore doing it now ?

I can braid, but not French braid, I've tried and failed. It's hard

Maybe because your hair is varying lengths? I can't personally do one either so I don't know. ☹

I can't do it either but I'm here to say you have beautiful hair ?

Aw thank you BC!
@victoria, I'm not sure if my hair is long enough to pull to the side but I'll give it a try. Thank you!

@Baby oh I have tried, he is hopeless!
Pookie, I actually braided this in the car using the little mirror. I would have been better off doing it blindly ?

Try to spray your hair with hairspray, then brush it, then braid. Or braid when it's wet.
