Created with the participation of ribbon or lace. Thanks to multi-colored satin or lace elements, you can weave a braid from many strands that will be securely fixed in “their” place.
In this description, you will get acquainted with the master class, which describes how a Christmas tree braid with a ribbon is woven. It is thanks to the ribbon that the herringbone pattern is formed in the center of the hair.
To create this hairstyle you will need:
- a large elastic band that will allow you to fasten the hair high in the tail,
- and a ribbon with a size exceeding the length of the hair by 2-2.5 times. It is better to use a satin or thin lace ribbon, that is, you need the material on which the hair will slide and not confuse them, so it is not advisable to use threads with beads or a flexible metal thread with rhinestones.
Christmas tree braid with ribbon - step by step photo lesson:
At the first stage of creating a hairstyle, you need to comb your hair and collect it in one tail, which should be located on the top of your head. Comb the side hair with a fine comb towards the tail, this procedure will help get rid of unwanted “roosters”. 
The next step is to fix the tape to the elastic that holds the tail together. To do this, pass the tape under the elastic band and tie its edge.
The inverted spikelet or the second name of such a braid is taken as the basis in this weaving - “ fish tail". In other words, it will be necessary to dress the strands from the inner edge of each part of the weave and throw it to the outside of the opposite part. But plus everything, weaving becomes more complicated when using a tape that wraps strand after strand and it is important to keep track of its distribution, because on the one hand it describes a circle under the strand, and on the other above it.
For weaving the "Christmas tree" divide the tail into two parts and arrange the ribbon to hang freely in the center. 
From the left side, separate a small strand of those hairs that are closer to the inside. 
Next, throw the tape over the strand, while the tape describes a full circle and becomes in the middle. It is necessary to observe the strict direction of the tape - when the strand is woven from left to right, the tape lies above the strand, then under it and returns to its original position, completing the circle above the strand. 
At the next stage, the interlaced strand should lie on the outer side of the right side, but this will not work right away and the strand will temporarily hang down along the inner edge, and only after a few bindings, when the turn comes again to this part of the hair, then it can be arranged along outer edge. 
At the next stage, the strand on the right is separated and held under the first braided strand (and not above it) and then these parts are braided by the tape, also in a circle. But the circle begins by pulling the tape over the strand, then under it, and again takes the middle position. Each time the strand should return to the center, lying on top of the previous round. 
At the next stage of weaving, the maneuvers with the strands continue, first the strand is woven from left to right, and then the other part is woven in the opposite direction, and each time the ribbon braids part of the hair in a circle, forming a pattern resembling a schematic representation of a Christmas tree. 
Strand by strand is intertwined with a ribbon, the correctness of the action can be assessed by the pattern formed from the green ribbon. 
When the entire thickness of the right and left parts of the braid is divided into strands and interlaced once, repeated bindings begin. And it is at this stage that the strand takes the extreme position from the outside, is held under the thickness of the hair, then participates in braiding with a ribbon and moves to the outer edge of the other side. 
At the next stage, the braided part of the braid should take on a three-dimensional look. To do this, the outer edges of the bindings are slightly extended, by about 1-1.5 cm, and become openwork arcs. 
Then weave the strands a third and fourth time as far as the length of the hair is enough. 
After every 7-10 bindings, create openwork along the edges of the braid so that the weaving is even and lush. 
The edges of the braid must be twisted in opposite directions in the direction from each other, and then fixed with an elastic band. 
At the last stage, start decorating your hair - wrap the first elastic band with a ribbon, tie it in bows. The end of the braid can also be decorated with a ribbon or a bow. 
Fancy weaving completed. A herringbone braid with a ribbon is versatile and perfect for any holiday, if the ribbon is combined with the tone of the dress, and for horseback riding or other everyday activities.

3. Bring this section over the top of the left ponytail and attach it to the inside of the right ponytail. At the same time, try not to twist the hair in diameter.
4. Separate a thin strand from the outside of the right tail.
5. Move this strand over the top of the right ponytail to inner part left tail.

How to make an evening hairstyle with a slanting Christmas tree? We offer a photo tutorial that will show you the technique step by step.
First you need to collect the hair in a high tail, holding it with your hand.
Then we make a hole above the base of the ponytail and thread the ends of the hair into it (turn it up). We pull up.
Next, a spikelet is woven along the entire length of the tail. Two strands of the same thickness are taken at the base and crossed, thus the entire braid is braided to the ends of the hair. For ease of use, gloss-wax was used.
Again, we separate two thin strands on the sides of the tail and cross.
So, the braid is ready. It is very important to make the weaving not tight so that at this step it is easy to pull out the strands.
We stretch the side strands to create the effect of volume and delicacy.
We need volume at the top of the hairstyle, for this use a hair roller. The hairdresser's roller is made of hair wrapped in a mesh, and you can buy it in a specialized store for hairdressers, for example, here parikmag.ru/catalog/402_valiki_dlya_prichesok
The lesson used a homemade roller. Attach it to your head with invisibility.
The sides of the tail must be fixed with invisibility to the head, thereby hiding the roller. Try to keep your hair smooth and loose.

- invisible - 5-10 pcs.
Before starting, it is advisable to slightly moisten the hair to facilitate weaving.

2. Separate a thin strand from it and start braiding a regular three-strand pigtail.
3. Gradually attach the hair from the tail to the pigtail according to the principle of weaving a French braid (grab strands of hair from one side). Weaving is done from left to right. From the side of the neck, skip the usual braid of three strands, from the outside - again French.
4. Repeat the “wrap” braid depending on the length of the hair. At the end, braid all the remaining strands into a regular braid and secure with a small elastic band.
5. Gently hide the end of the braid inside the formed “herringbone” and secure with invisibility.
