Thank you so very much! And my daughter found this video & sent it to me, so she thanks you too! Again, thank youuuuu!! 🙏🏽

[@vanessaanime7385]

Please learn as fast as u can or it will ruin the hair and don’t let ur girl straighten her hair much

I am Brazilian and my English is a work in progress, then I don't understand everything you said, but the way you did that, helped me understand how I can braid using this method. Thanks for sharing! ❤️

[@71marsha]

I just ❤ how you braid. You dnt braid so tight whereas you see the scalp turning red with tension. You is what I call a BRAIDER!❤

God Bless you! I just got crochet Box braids and lost 4 braids already on my short hair in bk. But even I can put them back in myself, b/c u showed how thoroughly. Thank You!!!!!!

Trying this right now. I love this method , like it much better than the cornrow method . Also convenient for those who don’t know how to braid 💚

I live in a small, predominantly white, town. I'm also a Mother of a beautiful curly gurly who desperately wants braids so here I am lol. I was able to order Kenekolan hair online and have been studying KZbin videos to try to learn a technique that is easy to understand. Thank you so much for making this video!!! I absolutely love this method and can't wait to get to work! Other videos I've found have made me feel so intimidated. The way you have explained this has me wanting to learn so much more! Thanks again! New subscriber!!! 💖

[@TheeAriaLee]

Proud of you White-but-woke Mama! When I was a kid all the mixed girls had such struggle hair until they were old enough to do it themselves becajse the moms didn't have resources and youtube wasnt teally a thing in the early 2000s. But you taking the TIME to embrace your daughter with our shared culture is GOALS! You go mama!

Perfect!!! Great idea for adding braid in the hair without rubber band. I appreciate you sharing be blessed love.

[@milasanchi8454]

Thank you so much for making this video. I had the hardest time trying to find ways to appropriately hold the extensions with my fingers then applying it to a box braid. Also, great method in adding hair to the hair itself. I made box braiding short hair much easier.

More power to you and this method to help those out there who has short hair and cant catch or grip. I wish I was closer to you my hair is long and thick only thing I sit to is leaving it out n bushy or ponytail am so sick of messing with hair but am trying to learn to braid. I can cornrow well but I dont like cornrow for braids in my hair in particular buc for me I dont like how they lay. I do however like the Individual braid BUT it would take tooo long for me to do. I have no patient. So I dont do any. But you video is awesome. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for this now I can make my short hair by my self

[@KeytoLife745]

My my how times have changed! This style can now be achieved using pre-looped crochet. Same technique (with or without rubber bands and you just intertwine your hair into the crochet braid. No tension or stress on the scalp or edges. I do mine by myself and my hair is actually growing back (post COVID)❤

[@TheAngeliquecruz]

hi! I really appreciate that you showed a method that prevents slipping on short hair! i did a big chop recently and my hair is 2 inches and ive been looking into getting box braids but was afraid i would pay a lot of money just for them to fall out so quickly or not be able to be put in at all! i'm going to TRY doing my hair myself at home and if this works than amazing and thank you so much and if it doesnt im going to try going to a salon maybe my hair will be long enough for a different method (corn rows with weave)
