on the road to pushing the limit of blender's hair, i came up with this non-destructive workflow for creating braided hair style. this can be consider a complex hairstyle because of the limitation of blender's hair system at the time of blender 2.82. but with the aid of the hairnet free addon, i have broken down the process of archiving this and making this a straight forward task. 

step 1. creating curve guides for the braids

step 2. creating the braid patterns

step 3. enabling the braid patterns to follow the guide curves

step 4. generate the braids

you will find the tutorial, well putted together and easy to understand. with aid of the screen cast key display to make sure you dont miss anything and speeding up the video in parts that can become boring to watch. so hit the buy button and lets be on or way. cheers
