How do you braid hair back in corn-rows?

My travel basketball season is just starting and I'm sick of putting my hair back in a ponytail. My cousin knows how to braid, but she's older and just got a job so shes always busy. I have thick, shoulder lenght african-american hair (if that helps).

Begin by making a part in the hair that neatly extends from the forehead to the nape of the neck. The part will have to be made somewhat at an angle because the area covered by your forehead is greater than that of your neck. If you can imagine, the cornrows will take on somewhat of a tapered look in the back if the parts are done evenly and correctly.



After parting the section to be cornrowed, secure the rest of the hair with a clip. Comb out the section to remove tangles. Beginning at the forehead, take a small portion of the section and divide it into two separate strands. Cross them.



For your third strand pick up some of the hair from the larger section and cross it over one of the other two strands. You now have the three strands necessary to cornrow.



The procedure is similar to braiding except you will be working your way down the section by continually adding hair from the larger section to each of your three strands.



Once you have reached the nape of the neck, braid the rest of the hair to the ends and secure with a rubber band. Part the next section and cornrow it.

I think, for it to look right, you need to have someone else do your hair. Cornrows can be very time consuming to do but they look neat.
