I often get asked how I get my plaits to look like they do & putting that together with other common questions and differences in plaiting, I've made this video to better explain why I plait like I do and to show how the differences in plaiting will impact your rosette.
Some of the common differences I see in plaiting a horses manes for rosettes includes:
~Using or not using product
~Whether you dampen the hair or not
~How tight you do the plait
~If you start the plait off a little looser or not
Another difference that I forgot when I was videoing and just thought of when I started writing this post is - Whether you plait 'over' (so if it was a braid it would be a French braid) or 'under' (if it were a braid it would be a dutch braid).
To get the softer/loopy look over the crest at the top of your plait you need to plait 'over'. If you plait 'under' you've only got the centre section of the plait that can go up, the two side pieces go under, so they can't sit up and give that soft look.
I hope this video helps to illustrate what I often try and write in reply to questions on my photos & videos.
