it doesn't really look like a rope....the three strand ones are a lot better

@denabluechicken Then feel free to do a three strand. I like this one because it's easy and I like the way it looks.

i tried the rope braid today. i did get alot of compliments, thank you. mine was in a side pony and i had to do two braids just because my hair is so thick it did not want to stay in one. i was just wondering if there is a good way to keep them tight?

[torrinpaige]

@unicorntear303 There's no way I know of to keep them super tight, unless you take your two rope braids and rope braid them together...that gives you the Hawser...which looks like a four strand box braid without the muss and fuss!
