Middle of part a is mainly red. Parts b and c are solid cream coloured braids. Part b's right side is wrapped in red thread. Dark blue-grey cords wrapped in intervals along right side, causing red threads to bulge through in three circular tufts. Part c's left side naturally curves downwards. Right side of part c ends in two smaller branches. Section before split and both branches wrapped in red thread with dark blue-grey cords wrapped in intervals along them. Parts d and e are solid pink coloured braids. Part d has a dark blue-grey cord wrapped around its left edge and long pink fringe. Part e is a plain braid with a left side that curves downwards naturally. Part f is cream coloured and its right side ends in two smaller branches.
