This is the most well-known and traditional variation of the French braid. Beginning at the top of the head, the braid weaves in strands of hair from the sides as it moves down to the nape of the neck.
Three hair strands are braided together to form a woven appearance in the conventional French braid, sometimes referred to as the "plait" or "classic" French braid. It's a versatile style that may be toned down for formal occasions or worn casually.

Here is a step-by-step tutorial for making a classic French braid:
Step 1:
Start with freshly brushed hair in step 1. It will be simpler to braid the hair if there are no tangles or knots.
Step 2:
Split a tiny part of your hair into three equal strands near the crown of your head. With your right hand, hold the right strand; with your left hand, hold the left strand; and let the middle strand hang loosely.
Step 3:
Start by making the right strand the new middle strand by crossing it over the middle strand.
Step 4:
Make the left strand the new middle strand by crossing it over the main strand. To keep the braid in place, hold the strands firmly.
Step 5:
Repetition of steps 3 and 4, this time with each strand having extra hair added before it crosses over the central strand. A tiny part of hair from the right side of the head should be gathered and added to the right strand before you cross it over the middle. Similar to this, take a little bit of hair from the left side of the head, add it to the left strand, and then cross it over the middle.
Step 6:
When you get to the nape of your neck, keep braiding in this manner, adding hair to each strand before crossing it over the middle. All of the hair on your sides should be integrated into the braid at this stage.
Step 7:
You can continue braiding till you get to the nape of your neck without adding any more hair. Up to the ends of your hair, just braid the three strands together.
Step 8:
Tie the braid with a ribbon or hair band. If required, you can also use bobby pins to cinch any loose strands
Step 9:
Optional: To make the braid appear fuller and more voluminous, gently tug on the braid's threads. This technique is especially helpful if you choose a more laid-back and informal look
And there it is—a classic French braid! Don't worry if your first try isn't great; practice makes perfect. You'll be able to make a lovely French braid hairdo with a little effort.
