2. Weave a strand through each bubble

Make an opening in the first bubble. Grab a similar amount of hair from behind this first braid and weave it through the opening. 

Weaving the hair

Continue to hold the end of the bubble braid out to the side and repeat the weaving process, taking another section of hair and pulling it through an opening in the next bubble. Repeat this for each bubble.

Secure the end of the bubble braid in the back with a bobby pin and tuck it under your hair to cover it.
