If you brush it with an egg wash before you bake it, you'll get a beautiful, shiny crust and you won't have any flour residue from the braiding process. Some time you should try a four-strand braid. Don't let all the diagrams scare you, it's super easy, and you will totally impress all your friends. I always make a 4-strand challah when I need a "wow" bread for an event. And if you haven't done this already, you have to make french toast with your challah. It makes THE BEST french toast! Let the bread soak in the mixture overnight and the middle of your toast will be almost custardy. Mmmm...I may have to make bread today...
