I started with two basic perimeter braids. A perimeter braid is like a french braid except you only add hair as you're braiding on the outside edge. On the inside, you work it just like a regular braid.
These are pic of it down, pinned together & with a claw.
This is a perimeter crown braid (back,side,front)
This is a perimeter double bun (back & side)
A double perimeter twisted loop with fanned ends held by a claw.
