Freetress TWA Crochet Style • Curlkalon Alternative

[@PatronDove]

This was so helpful! Thank you! I did not want to pay for curlkelon, and knew there was a “Beauty Supply Store” alternative! Seeing your video showed me just what I needed to see! Thank you 😊

[@judysykes6623]

GIRL YOU DID A GREAT JOB!! I LOVE IT💝 YOU CHANGED YOUR LOOK TOTALLY.

[@Poodahbumbrey]

This is the best video ive seen so far ! Very detailed and the side part like i want with a good braid pattern . Love it !

[@ElegantLioness]

Erika Zhane' Aww thank you so much! I appreciate that! 😘

[@snbryso]

I love the install! I would like to know your routine on how to maintain the look

[@MA-ym9nd]

You did a great job on installing your crochet curls and the style looks very nice on you.

[@naturalcurls1513]

It looks so natural not too much hair at all !

[@zheta2]

This style looks gorgeous on you and so natural! I absolutely love it!

[@ElegantLioness]

Lazheta Richardson aww thank you so much!! I appreciate it! 😘

[@The_Moni_Method]

Your hair came out nice. It might be great to show the back and show the actual cutting. I actually purchased this same hair because I did not want to experiment with the more expensive hair. I am so glad to see your video using the same hair I bought. Can’t wait to get my hair done.

[@ronicecolquitt9960]

I seen this hair at the beauty supply store and didn't know much about it. But now I'm going to try it because it turned out great on you. Hope I achieve the same result. Wish me luck!

[@tam5725]

I know it's a little late but I've tried my first ever crochet style and I'm loving it. My hair is natural but damaged and I want to keep my hands off for a while. This style is cute and I plan took try it.

[@ElegantLioness]

Tam hey girl! I am also natural and my hair also has heat damage which is why i started doing crochet styles in the first place so i understand your pain. Let me know how the style works out for you!

[@tam5725]

I will definitely let you know. I'm wearing twists, Bob Marley, but plan on changing up often and creating new looks. Have you tried the fortress yaky? I'll subscribe to your channel.

[@ranacjp575]

You did a fabulous job!❤

[@sheepofjesus5144]

Girrrrrrrrl...you look goooood !!!! Imma do the same...nice job!!!!!

[@keshahenry8449]

I never saw this hair before looks beautiful

[@kliving1210]

This is supercute!!!

[@4ckinkydiva722]

That so cute. I was going to get the Kima hair but i'm going to get the freetress hair instead.

[@cprettyred]

It came out fabulous!

[@AKingsQueen]

Gorgeous!!! Just bought this hair...can't wait to try it.

[@ElegantLioness]

Jaquanda Martin thank you! And good luck. Let me know if you have questions

[@loriaeddie4615]

I brought this hair and love it, I didn't need the bounce I am saving that hair for another style.

[@ElegantLioness]

Loria Eddie yay! I’m glad you liked it. Thanks for watching!

[@loyalsmith523]

Very nice. I can't wait to Try this. I LOVE Freetress hair. I am wearing the Curlkalon now..this hair is so dry to cost so much....UGH..UR HAIR LOOKS GREAT...thanks for sharing💃📷📹

[@ElegantLioness]

Loyal Smith Thank you so much! And I also love Freetress hair. I priced that curlkalon hair and said NO WAY! Lol The teeny curl has a natural hair texture to it but the wheezy curl is definitely a lot softer. I think you’ll like it.

[@loyalsmith523]

Thank you..so very much... I will definitely let you know...about it when I do my hair with the FREETRESS... I wish I could seen your video before I saw the Curlkalon one..😳...LOL

[@ElegantLioness]

Loyal Smith awww i know! It’ll definitely save you money. I’m a penny pincher so there was no way I was spending that much. But definitely keep me posted on how it turns out!

[@simonecharles9397]

Hi how did you do the cornrow pattern to achieve that style

[@tam5725]

This style was the bomb on you. My challenge would be the braid pattern if I do it myself

[@ElegantLioness]

Look up some brainless crochet installs. There’s ways to do it without actually braiding your hair. Hope this helps you.

[@zolasowiselymyfaith8335]

Chile u did awsome due u gain new sub ❤👀🙂vid was on point ty

[@MP-nj1qy]

I have done that hair style. Very quick and easy if you don’t want to waste 8 hours of your life doing some silly hairstyles at the salon.

[@Nikaplustwo]

This was very cute and natural hun

[@ElegantLioness]

Nika witt Thanks Love! I’m glad you like it! ☺️

[@flindaa85]

Looks great, did an awesome job, wish you would have show the braid pattern before starting.

[@ElegantLioness]

Linda Fowler Sorry about that. The back is in a spiral.

[@freidamartin3281]

Omg I love it!!, I have to do my sister's hair tomorrow, I'm going to use her as my genie pig😝😝❤️❤️

[@ElegantLioness]

Freida Martin Hahaha! I’m sure she will love it! ☺️

[@freidamartin3281]

It didn't turn out like I wanted it to but it looked ok, she said not to worry about it she was going out of town and nobody would know her LOL!!! I'll give it another shot, practice makes perfect : )

[@yvwjohnson]

That turned out really cute!

[@ElegantLioness]

*Mrs.J Thank you. Appreciate it!

[@lawandaharrilson9931]

[@ElegantLioness]

Kurly Kay Glam thank you sooooo much!

[@lavondadebrito1178]

I absolutely loooove it!’

[@gp5366]

Very cute! I tried the Freetress hair and I will not buy it again, it's hard, crispy, and I had frizz for days.

[@ElegantLioness]

gp5366 aww really? What kind did you get? They’re one of my favorite brands but sometimes the synthetic hair just doesn’t work in our favor lol

[@patriciaheard-hopson3802]

That is really good!

[@calandramoss6156]

Omg I love it !!

[@alitrawynn8102]

Your style came out REALLY nice!!!👍👍👍 Could you kindly tell me how much of each curl pattern you used? I tried to follow but could not quite do so with the bigger curl with the varying amounts betwwen colors. If I calculated right, you used roughly 1.5 boxes of the teeny curl and about 1.5 boxes TOTAL of the weezy curl. I am considering doing this style and want to roughly calculate the amount of hair and thus the cost of doing this style. Thx!

[@ElegantLioness]

Alitra Wynn Hello! And thank you for watching! I’m so sorry...I know it confusing. There are 40 pieces in each box. In the Teeny curl i used a full box of 40 and half of one row of the second box (10pieces) but if i did it again, i would use less teeny curl and space out the pieces a lot more and probably only need 1 box. I used half of a box of the Weezy Curl OT30 (20 pieces). In the Weezy Curl in the color 2, i used a full box of 40 and half of the second box (20 pieces). I hope this helps!

[@alitrawynn8102]

+Elegant_Lioness Thank you SO much for responding and so quickly! I REALLY appreciate that! Yes that makes it clear.

[@ElegantLioness]

Alitra Wynn you’re more than welcome! Let me know if i can do anything else to help.

[@alitrawynn8102]

[@ElegantLioness]

Indigenous Queen aww thank you so much!

[@michellelee3005]

Hi Lioness. That turned out really beautiful. Can you tell me how you make the Freetress so shiny and frizz free?

[@ElegantLioness]

Michelle Lee Hey! Thanks for watching! I actually don’t do anything to it lol i do sleep with an extra large satin bonnet on at night but that’s about it.

[@endenezjiagraham6270]

So you used 4 boxes of hair? I am going to try this hairstyle and I am a little confused about how much hair to purchase. Btw you look amazing 😍

[@ultimatecouponlady]

So, the first row you showed installed (bottom row) was actually the teeny curl and not the weezy curl? Thanks!

[@ElegantLioness]

ultimatecouponlady yes ma’am.

[@sharond.9146]

You did very good. It looks nice. How long did it last for you?

[@FeliciaEvansMoss]

Hello. This looks really nice. I want to try this but I don't want it to look like an afro once I'm done. This style looks more like a flexi rod set which is the look I'm aiming for. Did you use any products to accomplish this look? If so, please tell. 😊

[@ElegantLioness]

Felicia Evans-Moss Lol No I didn’t use any products for this style outside of a little edge control on one side. I would suggest you braid your hair a little different for this style. If you notice, I start my first braid really high above my ears and I do the same in the back. It helps eliminate that afro or helmet look. Also, I would suggest you separate each piece of hair right after you install it to help with spacing. I started to separate them halfway into the install and realized how big it looked and had to take out quite a few pieces.

[@FeliciaEvansMoss]

Elegant_Lioness thanks for responding. I'm going to try it. 😊

[@ElegantLioness]

You’re welcome hun! Good luck!

[@to1da]

Love it!

[@lakeishadavis7372]

cute love it !

[@tharmon919]

You look nice

[@yvwjohnson]

When you were it like this, do you wash it & if so how often? Or are you using a dry shampoo?

[@ElegantLioness]

*Mrs.J Heyyy! I never keep my crochet in longer than 4 weeks or so... I’ve yet to have to wash my hair while wearing crochet.

[@sharonphillip355]

Hello ... just came across your video. Love this alternative. Can you wash this hair? I workout a lot and am looking for a style that will hold up for a while.

[@ElegantLioness]

Sharon Phillip Hey! Thank you for watching. Unfortunately I didn’t wash the hair and can’t give you any feedback on how it’ll hold up after being washed or cowashed. Sorry

[@sharonphillip355]

Elegant_Lioness Ok. Thanks so much 😀 Loved the style. Will definitely try it.

[@ElegantLioness]

Sharon Phillip Yay! Glad you liked the style. Let me know how it turns out.

[@Roshaye92]

Which hair is better freetress or curlkalon?

[@ElegantLioness]

+Roshaye92 I’ve never tried the curlkalon hair but I love all of crochet hair from freetress

[@ElegantLioness]

Samantha Mangrum No ma’am. I didn’t. But i did after i was done installing the hair. And teased a few pieces up top too.

[@elizabethgasper2909]

Appreciated
