Continue Weaving and FInish Up

Continue weaving strands from the left and right. You’re going to be weaving more or less depending on the thickness of your strands. Once you’re at a comfortable place to end your braid, secure it with an elastic band or a clip. If you feel like your braid is too tight, loosen it by gently massaging the strands with your hands. Grab both hands simultaneously and gently pull away from the braid. This technique gives the braid that casual and effortless look.
