[@lucyk1384]

[@gooseparent1485]

I just want to say how thankful I am for this video. My partner has trouble taking care of their natural hair because of mental health issues, but having braids makes them feel so much better about themselves and the way they look. I’m white, so I’ve never done braids like these before, and this video has been immensely helpful for me to be able to help the person I love most see themselves as beautiful as I do. It took a lot of practice and I’m still nowhere near perfect, but I’m getting better every time. It makes my partner feel better about themselves, and it makes me feel better because I’m able to help them with something, even if it’s relatively small. Thank you.

[@jaelynaaron9366]

The angle, the demonstration, the commentary, and even the little pros and cons card in the card. This video is immaculate!!!! Could not have been better.

@@farrahkelley2751 yup. Some of the colleges, universities and cosmetology schools have braiding courses now. At least in Chicago they do.

[@bratshats]

@@NeseMonae In the Pittsburgh area, too. We did braiding back in '07 when we did the ethnic hair portion for the overall cosmetology course. It was my favorite because I had been giving barbies micros since I was 8, and helped me be able to do braids and extensions for many of my daughters' friends in the neighborhood whose families couldn't afford it otherwise.

Thank you so much!!! We adopted my younger sister from Haiti and as a white family, we have never been great with her hair. We typically take her to get it braided, but I've made it my mission to learn how to give her beautiful hairstyles. I feel bad knowing she's missing out on an entire culture of hairstyles and I want to give that to her. Today I gave her box braids for the first time and she was so excited!

[@lilmommalady76]

This is a great video for beginners and those who can get their braids to stay after one of these methods. Decades experience of braiding here and I just want to add one more way in case it might help someone if they still need another method. I've learned (self taught) the best way FOR ME is to (1) braid the person's natural hair to the end then (2) split the braiding hair in half (in a two-thirds/one-third ratio) and (3) crochet the two-thirds in at the braid's root and pull one side through (will look like a T) and even the braiding hair to cover the natural braid and then (4) add the one-third directly on top and at base (no crochet and another T) (5) carefully hold the two-thirds braiding hair over the natural braid (to keep it covered and protected) and then (6) braid to the end. Pros__This ensures the braids won't come out, creates less chance of frizz coming through the braid, and person's hair is protected and style will last. Cons__more time consuming and not as easy to quickly rebraid if needed. I hope this can add to the wonderful ways that have been provided in this video. ***EDIT*** Here is another way that I saw KZbinr Adanna do her box braids kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZm4qqaMh99_abc I'm looking for a video like the way I described and when I find it, I'll put the link.

[@nikki1ontheway]

Yes I use this method for my daughter she has fine curly natural hair and doing it this way makes it last soo much longer and adds protection to her hair

[@zharria]

lilmommalady76 can you please make a tutorial on how you do this method!!?? it’ll be very much appreciated and useful. 💛💛

I just bought got my mannequin today that I ordered off of amazon! I forgot that I’m afraid of mannequin heads but I’ve decided to press through my fear to practice!

So precise, well taught and your voice- OMG, so soothing (lol made me believe in myself). I can't thank you enough. You have changed my life.

Omg thank you! I normally do the two strand method for my box braids and kinky twists because I could never master the 3 strand. I have short hair so trying to grip is my struggle but this makes me want to try again.

Thank you so much!

[@nylahjohnson1243]

for the 2 strand method in the beginning of the video, how do you add more weave if your actual hair doesn't match the length of it to keep braiding down?

[@jordanellaynafeltman]

You will need to redistribute the braiding hair slowly as you get to the end of you natural hair so you will end up with three strands of only braiding hair

[@noelleleader]

I don’t ever comment on a video. I choose to subscribe or not and leave it at that. However, this has been the most succinct hair braiding video I’ve ever watched. Yes, your hands were not in the way, and you also used a different color hair to illustrate. I am hands down a subscriber and am going through your channel page to see what other goodies you have. You rocked this. Thanks

[@brittney5775]

I been trying to learn to grip the roots for literally 5 years now. I’ve searched high and low through KZbin among hundreds of videos. This is literally the BEST one. The angle of the camera, the way you explain, and the slow movement of your hands has officially taught me to properly grip the roots. I am so thankful!

[@TheHonduras1994]

Thank you for this video! I've been practicing braids on my daughters 3c fine type hair 😩 its been a struggle cause I def have to add alot of hair when braiding because its thin, even thought it's long. But she loves having her hair look pretty and it helps me not do her hair for a few days. Unfortunately its only a few days but its something!

[@lashondachapman1226]

I'm doing the 'I don't know what the heck I am doing' method. But it turned out pretty good. I braided my hair then did the first 3 strand method but had slippage. Middle section was great as I got better so I had to redo some of my edges

Very helpful! You and DopeaxxPana are like the only ones who I have seen post multiple ways of starting an individual braid because there’s so many methods out there & I’m still struggling (mainly cause of the lack of grip game 😅😹) but the more options I find the better I can practice to see what works for me.

[@TheCRYSTALLURE]

Aniya Raine That’s your opinion, so be it. To each their own. I said what I said. I found both helpful🤷🏾‍♀️.

[@shannongray-chappell3492]

Can you do a video on how you can practice braiding with yarn?

[@mvblaise]

This is the best video on braiding that I have seen. Why, because you are explaining what you are doing, the types of hair each technique is best for and you are doing it slowly. So many videos talk about what they are doing but they do it so fast that it is difficult to understand and it appears that every one of them is doing the same method. I learned so much and now I can speak intelligently to the stylist when I get my very fine and straight hair braided. Thank you for creating this video.
