Stop re-deciding your braid sizes every single appointment.
The Parting Guide is a one-page reference chart that tells you exactly how to part and size Small, Smedium, Medium, and Large braids — row by row, per side, every time. Built from real client heads (not theoretical math), it's the chart I use in my own chair to keep sizing consistent, price accurately, and stop second-guessing myself mid-appointment.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
1 instant-download PDF, sized for Letter and A4 printing
Full parting charts for all 4 sizes: Small (knotless/box), Smedium (the in-between), Medium (the all-rounder), and Large (jumbo/chunky)
Row-by-row braid counts, listed per side
Middle braid (MB) placement marked wherever it applies
Total row count + total braid count for each size, so you can quote and time appointments accurately
A quick-reference key explaining how to read every diagram
WHY BRAIDERS USE IT

A NOTE ON THE NUMBERS Every count on this chart is a starting point built from real heads I've worked on — treat it as your baseline and adjust up or down slightly for hair density, hairline shape, and client hair type.
FAQ
Is this a physical poster? No — this is a digital PDF download only. Nothing will be mailed to you. You can absolutely print it yourself at home or through a print shop.
Will this work for two strands twists? This chart is built around general box/knotless-style sizing (Small–Large), so yes! The foundation of two strand twists is box parting! It's a sizing and parting reference, not a style-specific tutorial.
Can I use this in my salon/studio? Yes! It's licensed for your personal and in-studio professional use — pin it at your station, use it to train stylists, or reference it with clients.
