Think this through. When your hair falls naturally it is down to your armpit line. When you braid it you twist it around, so it is no longer going in a straight line to your armpit. It's taking a detour. Think of a string that you can lay (straight and tight) on your keyboard from the "A" to the "L." If you now bend that string and make it go across the "7" key, it will no longer be able to touch both the A and the L.

You know, the whole "shortest distance between two points is a straight line" thing. :D

Braiding always takes up about 25% of the length of whatever is being braided, whether it's hair, rope, leather strands, or whatever.

no theres nothing wrong. when you braid your hair you're bending it around other bits of hair, so it gets scrunched up. So imagine that your hair is just down and you scrunch it up to crimp it or something and it gets shorter because your holding it. same thing.
