How to braid a simple beautiful spikelet?
A spikelet is worth weaving on long or medium hair. It is very difficult to work with short ones in such a technique. If the child has a bang, it can be woven into a spikelet, then you need to start the pigtail from the forehead itself, or leave it.
The implementation of a standard beautiful spikelet for a girl with long hair should start with three simple rules:
- comb hair thoroughly, you can use a spray for easy combing;
- prepare gum, hair clips, invisible and a comb with a thin tail;
- seat the child as conveniently as possible so that the neck does not swell.
If you first decided to braid a spikelet, start with one. To do this, comb all the hair back and select a strand near the forehead up to 2 cm thick, 3-4 cm wide. Divide the strand into three equal parts and bind it like a normal pigtail. Now you need to pick up additional hair with each side lock.
To make it clearer how to act, see the video tutorial, which shows in detail how to weave a French pigtail.

No matter what hairstyle you are going to do, prepare your hair: comb it thoroughly. You can prewind or straighten.
A step-by-step photo of the implementation of the “braid of two braids” hairstyle:
Pigtail in a ponytail - A quick novelty from stylists, which is gaining popularity this season. Select a strand at the temple and braid an ordinary braid. Fix it with an elastic band, and then collect together with the rest of the hair in a ponytail. It will be fashionable and original.
The elastic can be hidden by a strand of hair, securing it with a hairpin or invisibility.
The simplest everyday hairstyle for girls to school is a mulvin. This allows you to remove curls from the face and at the same time leave the hair loose. And in order to somehow diversify the malvinka, you can braid a pigtail from the hair that is collected and wind it with a donut. Fasten with the power of studs.
Such a half-wig today is considered a very fashionable hairstyle, because even Hollywood stars wear it.
A basket of two spikelets will take a little longer than a half-beam or a scythe with a tail, but it's worth it. It will turn out stylishly and beautifully.
Divide the hair into two equal parts with a vertical parting and braid two classic spikelets or French inside out. Using the pins, fasten them to the back of the head, creating a basket.
Long hair can be gathered into a high tail, and braids can be braided from it. And it is best to weave different ones: fish tail, tourniquet, ordinary. Then all the workpieces must be woven together, you get a voluminous and very original hairstyle.
Another way to originally braid a child who has long or medium hair is spikelets in two rows. To do this, we divide the hair not vertically, but horizontally. We weave two French braids, but in the first we grab extra hair only at the top. The lower one is already classic.
We braid the spikelet under the tail, if we want to create an original bunch or a high ponytail. To do this, we start the ear not from the forehead, but from the back of the head. We carefully comb each strand first.
Another version of the original weaving for girls is spikelet cross. To get a hairstyle, divide the hair into three equal parts. We begin to weave from the temple and stop at the crown, weaving an ordinary pigtail about 4-5 cm. Then, after passing through the center, we again begin to grab additional hair in the selected area. On the other hand, we are doing the same.
Braiding girls for short hair: ideas, nuances
Short hair is much harder to comb into a hairstyle, especially one like a braid. Therefore, it is necessary to first apply mousse or foam for styling on them so that they do not disintegrate.
The easiest option is to make flagella on short hair. Select the small locks and collect the rubber bands, and then scroll through the center. The result is an imitation of small spikelets.
If the child has a bang, which interferes during the lessons, you can remove it by making an ordinary French pigtail. Secure with invisibility.
