Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Start box braids on clean, dry hair. Braid the extension hair until you have 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15cm) left. Pull a thin strand of hair from your pack of extensions. Add the extension hair to the left and right strands of your braid. Braid your hair for a few stitches. Split 1 of the thicker strands and add it to the thin strand. Continue braiding your hair as normal. Tie the braid, then trim off the excess.

Answer: Wash, condition, and dry your hair as usual, then section it off. Clip up any sections that you aren't planning on adding to the braid. Install your extensions into your natural hair using your preferred method, then begin to braid the extensions. Stop when you are a few inches/centimeters past your real hair, and are only braiding with the extension hair. You will continue braiding and lengthening them 1 at a time. This method works best on skinny braids, such as box braids or goddess braids. It is not recommended for thicker braids, such as pigtails. Choose a braid to add hair to, and continue braiding it. Stop when you have about 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15cm) of hair left. The strand needs to be about the same thickness as the strands making up your braid. You can match the color to your existing braid, or you can use a different color for an ombre effect. Kanekalon braiding hair will work the best for thin, micro braids. Its wavy, crimped texture will be easier to work with and won't be visible in the completed braid. If you are working on a single braid or a pair of pigtails, match the extension hair to your real hair's texture. Keep the 3 strands on your braid separate, so that you have a left, middle, and right strand. Place the strand of extension hair behind the braid. Add the left end of the extension to left strand on your braid, and right end of the extension to right strand. The middle strand should not have any hair added to it. Cross the long/thick left and right strands over the middle one. Do this for a few stitches until the long/thick strands are back on the outside of the braid, and the short/thin strand is back in the middle. Make sure that you still have a few inches/centimeters of hair left on the short/thin strand. Choose 1 of the long/thick outer strands and split it in half. Add 1 of the halves to the short/thin strand in the middle, and keep the remaining half on the outside. All 3 strands should now be the same length and width. Keep braiding as before by crossing the left and right strands over the middle one until the braid is the length you want it to be. If you want to make an even longer braid, you can add another extension using the same technique. Wrap a clear elastic around the end of the braid, and cut the rest of the hair off. Use a pair of scissors for a blunt cut, and a pair of thinning sheers for a more natural look. Straighten the end of the braid to make the crimped hair look smoother. Real hair: straighten the hair with a flat iron on a low setting. Synthetic or kanekalon hair: dip the hair in boiled water, then pull it out. Wrap the hair in a towel to remove as much water as possible, taking care to not burn yourself. Then, smooth the fibers out with your fingers and let the hair dry.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Lubricate the exposed teeth of the die head. Keep ratcheting the handle until all the die head's teeth have cut into the pipe. Reverse the direction of the ratchet handle and ratchet it off the threads. Wrap Teflon tape clockwise around the threads at the end of the pipe.

Answer: Squeeze more threading oil onto all the teeth of the die head that are not yet cutting into the pipe. This is important to make cutting easier and prevent wear and tear on the teeth. Don't be shy about squirting on the threading oil. You can't use too much lubricant during this process. Turn the handle back counterclockwise about 3/4 of the way, then ratchet it clockwise as far as you can go, using your bodyweight to help you turn it. Repeat this until all the die head's teeth are around the pipe, which means all the threads have been cut. If at any point you feel increased resistance while cutting, stop ratcheting and apply more threading oil to the exposed teeth of the die head. Pull up the little black knob next to the die head and turn it to reverse the direction of the ratchet handle. Ratchet it counterclockwise as far as it will go, then turn it back clockwise about 3/4 of the way, and repeat until you have unscrewed the teeth of the die head from the threads. When you have unscrewed the die head all the way, you can simply pull it to slide it off the end of the pipe. Seal the threads with 2-3 wraps of teflon tape before you attach any connectors or fittings. This will ensure a tight, well-sealed connection. You can also use a liquid pipe thread compound instead of Teflon tape to create a strong seal.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Wet your hair with cool or cold water. Squeeze the water out of your hair before applying conditioner. Apply conditioner to the tips of your hair. Leave the conditioner in for 2-5 minutes before rinsing out. Try using conditioner before, not after, you shampoo. Use conditioner even when you don't shampoo.

Answer:
Hot water damages your hair by opening up pores on the hair shaft, allowing moisture and oil to escape. If you love hot showers, try dosing your hair with cold water for 30 seconds right before getting out to mitigate some of the effects. Your hair is already soaking with water, making it harder to get the conditioner into the hair strand. After rinsing, dry out your hair a bit by lightly squeezing it. You can even lightly blot your hair with a towel to get rid of surface water. You don't want to massage the conditioner into your scalp where it won't do you any good. Spread the conditioner along your palms and then, starting in the middle of your hair, work it out towards the tips. You only need a half-dollar sized dollop of conditioner -- too much may weigh down your hair and make it appear flat. This gives your hair time to absorb the conditioner and leaves it clean and happy. Most people naturally shampoo their hair and then apply conditioner, but a recent "reverse wash" trend promises shiny, high-volume hair. Simply apply conditioner, leave it in for several minutes, and then rinse it out before applying shampoo. Don't worry if your hair feels greasy after the conditioner -- the shampoo will deal with this. Try out the reverse routine for a week and see how it feels. It is easy to go back if you aren't satisfied with the results. Shampoo strips essential oils from your hair, and should really only be used every 2-3 days. But you should always use conditioner, as it restores your hair's pH balance and lends it a gorgeous sheen. People with greasier hair may need to shampoo more often. You can use a small amount of conditioner without showering too. Just use your fingertips to massage it into the tips of your hair -- it will soak it up.
