Whether you’re trying to build physical intimacy with a new girlfriend, or simply trying to have a special moment with a woman you’ve been seeing for a while, braiding her hair is a great way to get touchy-feely without being overtly sexual. And since it’s more about having a special moment together, you don’t have to worry about being a master braider or doing anything fancy! However, if you just started dating, keep in mind that you may have to work your way up to it if she’s not accustomed to a lot of physical contact with you yet. | Whether you’re trying to build physical intimacy with a new girlfriend, or simply trying to have a special moment with a woman you’ve been seeing for a while, braiding her hair is a great way to get touchy-feely without being overtly sexual.

Start stroking or playing with her hair. Pay her a compliment about its texture, look, or scent. Be natural about it, so you don’t look like you're trying to force a rehearsed move on her.<ref>http://www.girlschase.com/content/7-ways-touch-girl-3-ways-have-her-touch-you</ref> | + | #Set the tone.

#Comb her hair. Sit behind her with enough space between you so you have room to work. Start from the bottom of her hair and work your way up to gently loosen any tangles. Go slowly, being careful not to pull. Smooth her hair with your palms a few times once you’ve finished. | #Comb her hair. Sit behind her with enough space between you so you have room to work.

| − | #Make a basic braid. Your main goal here is only to have an intimate moment with your lady, so don’t worry about doing anything too complex. First, separate her hair, or a section of her hair, into three even strands. Let’s call them 1, 2, and 3, from left to right. From there, you can start with either the leftmost strand (1) or the rightmost (3), but let’s say you start with the right strand:<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMrMe5qoZmk</ref> | + | #Make a basic braid.

Of course, you’re not entitled to touch any part of her unless she’s okay with it, but consider these areas as an innocent place to start trying. As long as she’s fine with it, continue finding excuses to make contact there so she grows accustomed to it without feeling threatened, like:<ref | + | #Stick to neutral areas at first.

Don’t put if off, because this will only build it up into something “big” that will feel more awkward once you do start trying. Start testing the waters at the very start of your first date so touching each other feels perfectly natural.<ref | + | #Start early. Make physicality a part of your date right from the get-go.
