rebraiding
Redoing woven strands
Rebraiding is the act of braiding again—undoing and redoing braids in hair, rope, or other material.
Hair rebraiding is common maintenance for protective styles: She spent Sunday afternoon rebraiding her daughter's cornrows.
The term applies to any material that requires periodic re-plaiting to maintain structure or appearance.
