rebraid

Redo the plait

To rebraid is to braid again—undoing or continuing a braid to redo it: She took out her plaits and rebraided them tighter.

The word applies to hair, rope, or anything woven in interlocking strands.

Rebraiding often implies correction or refreshing: The rope had frayed, so we rebraided the damaged section.
