Hey I just made and alpha bracelet (multicolored) and I was wondering how I can fasten all the extra string from where I cut off added in colors to the back of the bracelet?

There are different choices. I often use tacky glue. This is better than Elmer's glue since it is more flexible and not as scratchy on the wrist. Sometimes I glue or sew felt or fleece to the back to cover us the messiness or if there are a lot of glue spots. Depending on the bracelet, I can sew/thread the ends through the "loops" on the back as well. Hope that helps!

I use sewing shears and cut flush to the bracelet and I've yet to have one unravel yet

I cut the string off with enough room left to tie it closely to the back of the bracelet where you ended. Then cut the end close to the knot. I tie a knot just for the added security.
