"thick" side braid

Ok so first things first... I don't have thick hair in the slightest. A friend of mine asked me the other day, "how did you get your braid to look so thick?" So I thought I would make a little tutorial for those who don't know the trick :) Although a lot of you probably already do sweet braids, I'm just getting into doing them often and they are so fun! They are definitely a good 3rd day hairdo and you all know I loooove me a good 3rd day do. So anyways hope you enjoy and if you have any questions feel free to ask!
