What is kanekalon
Kanekalon - These are artificial strands that have a different color. The color of Kanekalon varies from light, ordinary shades, to caustic acid colors.
Kanekalon is divided into two types: artificial production and natural

- To create such braids, you will need silicone rubber bands, Kanekalon long, depending on the length of your hair. If you want to make kanekalon only until the middle of your braids, then you can choose a short option. If all braids, then long.
- All hair must be divided into two parts with a vertical parting. Berm is a little of our kanekalon, as shown in the photo, and we arrange it for the widow and thread it through the lock, fixing it with invisibility.
- After the kanekalon, you need to distribute it between the side strands and do a couple of braids bindings using the opposite technique. And then we shift part of the Kanekalon to the lock, which was in the middle.
- We continue to weave the braid on the contrary, weaving the same method as above the kanekalon. When you get to the back of the head, you need to take another part of the kanekalon and weave it in exactly the same way as the first part. If the length is too long, then the tip of the Kanekalon can be cut.
- After we go to the second pigtail and weave it in the same way.
- To make the cut-off tip of the Kanekalon look beautiful, you need to solder its edge, lowering it in boiling water. You can use Kanekalon of any color on such hair.

French braids with Kanekalon
- We will need one part of the kanekalon, which you must fold in half, and then the same half again in half and the remainder. As a result, you should have two small locks and one big one.
- Divide the hair with a vertical parting in two. So that the other half of the hair does not interfere with your braiding, you can fix it with an elastic band or a crab.
- We begin to weave the braid from a lock in the forehead and on top of it we put a thin lock of kanekalon. Now we have three locks on our hands, two of which are artificial at the edges, and in the middle lies the real one.
- Then weave the usual French braid, "only under the bottom." To do this, you need to shift the side lock to the central, and after the second side, and pick up new hair.
- Make about four weaves in this way, and then add a second piece of Kanekalon to the braid.After about a few weaves, it all depends on the length of your hair, add a third piece of kanekalon to the braid and braid the braid to the end.
- We do the same with the second braid, and we fix the ends of the braids with elastic bands. To beautifully solder the cut edges of the kanekalon, if any, you need to lower their tip into boiling water.
To make the braid more voluminous, you can stretch its links a little.
