How To: Cornrow Your Own Hair | For Beginners

[@dopeethiopian]

Something to practice while self isolating! Sending love to you all💕🤗 - Update: The amount of people leaving comments/sending me photos on IG that have learned how to cornrow with this video has truly blown me away! I've been ready to cry at all the people finally able to cornrow their daughter and sons hair. I'm so proud and thankful y'all are taking time to learn; this means a lot to me! Nothing, but love 💕

Thank you for making this video!!!

Im almost crying, too! She really broke it down to a way I've never heard before. It's very unsettling to be at the mercy of others just to get your hair done sometimes. I happen to be white and have headaches when my hair is not tight. Many braiders near me prefer not to do white hair, so I usually have to. This is going to be a BIG help to me, and I am very happy for you also. I can't believe how emotional I got over this. It is remarkable how she taught this, and I've been braiding all my life. It's just harder on yourself. Congratulations 🎉

Let me tell you something... I'm 25 yrs old and could never cornrow anyone's hair, let alone my own. I have hairstylists in my family that have tried teaching me and nothing! I've watched countless KZbin videos trying to learn and I just couldn't get it, so I gave up. Just thought that it wasn't meant for me to learn. Then your video popped up on my feed the other night so I watched it and saved it. The next day I washed my 5year old daughter's hair, played your video, and followed along. And I DID IT!!! I actually managed to get four cornrows on her head. I nearly cried because I could only do boxbraids before and now the possibilities are just endless. To be honest, not being to cornrow made me feel like less of woman 😔 but the way you explained and demonstrated it was so clear. Girl!!! THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart, sending you a big ol' hug!!! Bless!!🙏🏽♥️♥️

Im almost 60 years old, and I've been braiding my own hair since 5th grade. I've always had a feeling there was an easier, more efficient way to do it because I taught myself to French braid when my friend told me just to braid regular, but add hair as you go. After watching and listening to you, it was incredibly clear to me that the goal is to always reach for the outside hair. I know it may sound simple, but this is a complete game changer for me. I am dyslexic and have only been able to braid while pacing the floor to distract myself from thinking too much. With this little tip, you shared, and the way you explained it will prove to give HUGE results for me. You truly are Dope af. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks? Thank you beauty!!! 🎉😂

I was looking for you to thank you!!, I watched your video almost two weeks ago and surprisingly I can braid my own hair.... I've been trying for years about 4years now and thanks to you I'm making neat Knotless braids now. I'm really proud of myself 😊❤ God bless you for this tutorial!

[@kezzy_kezzy]

I've watched a lot of con row videos but this is so my best so far, I understood it so quickly and I'm going to practice as soon as I loose my hair. And would give a feedback. Thanks❤

[@blakedugami1397]

MISS MAAAMM YOU HELPED ME 😭😭 practice makes progress thank youuu

[@joyce3434]

I'm from London, in my late 30's and have never been able to maintain my natural hair so have never bothered. I have seen so many videos on how to cornrow but still never quite grasped what to do and so this is the first time I have made a youtube comment. My cornrow wasn't perfect but I know it will get better with practice. Thank you so much for a great, simple and easy to follow video

[@jaidaa05]

Omg the amount of videos I went through about 6 months ago that were like 13 minutes+ and taught me nothing. I’m back after 6 months and decided to learn again, THIS VIDEO HELPED ME SM! It’s like the first few seconds she started braiding, I was braiding my hair down and next thing ik I done did a cornrow on myself. (It’s my very first time) THANK U!

[@Olivia-iy2xz]

[@nsndm6455]

Gurrrrl I watched this only once and you made me learn I'm 6 minutes whst I've been trying to learn almost all my life

[@LosGypsys]

OMG! I have been braiding hair for years. Mostly using the French braid technique. This video helped so much, i think I can do it now, myself and also sometime. I'm going to try real soon, current I'm rocking the twists. This was the simplest approach

[@paulogregory58]

I watched this vid cause I am about to cornrow my faded daffodils. I used to have locks and learned then, but lost the memory. I finished the piece and said “DOPE exclamation! Particularly when you showed us the, “I forgot this” joint. It helped me to see this is a jam with notes, patterns and measures. Then I check your name and DOPE is the first syllable. Of course. You are a fabulous teacher my Sistah! GO!

[@Redd91ful]

girl you bouta have me infront of my mirror wasting time😭😭but there’s nothing else to do, sooo

[@jerandycraft3683]

Just tried and it didn't come out as neat but I DID IT! Always have to come back here no matter how much other videos I've watched. Thank you Dope! Now to practice to perfection. And I will be moving on to doing box braids next.....

[@Peachyx0]

Thank you so much for this, I'm a white mama w a mixed little boy. Dad's always had long hair, styled himself but seemed to forgot a lot since getting dreads. However after watching your videos, trial and error I did it! Means a lot to be able to do my children's hair. ❤️

[@AS-wj1du]

The fetish is real. Why did people need to know your colour? 🙄

[@Ashley-cg3oq]

I have been trying to cornrow my hair for years, like literally a decade, and couldn’t do it. Watched your video twice and was able to get it done. Thank you so much. I don’t have people around me to teach these techniques and this will change how I do my hair for years to come.

[@ardavidiAD]

Today years old (24) and you just taught me how to cornrow my hair in like 5 minutes 😭😭. Thank you soooo much, love you for this gorgeous girl! I hope you forever get what your heart desires!!

[@Roseyfro]

Thank you so much for this. I’d given up on cornrows until I saw this video & immediately it made sense. I tried and I’m now rocking my first set of cornrows by me in the 31 years of my life 😂💚

[@nekoye7640]

This video actually helped me finally understand this Also, your hair is so pretty 😍

[@tendaninemudivhiso7749]

10/10 on explanation and demonstration - i actually did it !!! 😭

[@tooprettyv]

Thankyou. I've been feeling so dependant lately and although learning this seems small it actually means so much to me. Thankyou thankyou thankyou.

[@LK-3000]

Thank you so much for this video. I've watched so many videos on cornrowing but yours is the most thorough about finger placement and overall technique. I've got a lot to relearn about how I braid in general to be able to use your technique, but I feel it's worth it to learn how to cornrow.

[@blessedandfavored9242]

I feel so slow watching this. I feel like I’m in math class. I stare at her hand movements and think I got it but I always mess up. I’m too old to not know how to do my own hair.

[@yolo-vl4wz]

righttt

[@Celestials1aurora]

Same and I am so frustrated I hate myself 😭

[@Kurikage]

I’m coming back to show this video some love because I was able to roughly put my hair in two cornrows or French braids after watching dozens of how to braid videos. I started practicing during quarantine and by the end of the year my hair wasn’t as badly damaged and I was able to retain a little length. I kept coming back to this video and eventually it clicked. My braids aren’t the best looking but now I’m confident enough to wear them out. 💜

[@scarlethsandino3309]

THANK YOU!!! Your instructions were extremely helpful! I was able to do my son’s hair. It doesn’t look perfect but it definitely looks 100% better than before ! 👏🏽👏🏽❤️❤️❤️ thank you

[@emsorrell]

I have been looking at videos attempting to learn flat twisting, and almost lost my mind. When I came across your video, I watched one time and understood the concept. Afterwards, I tried it on my hair and it WORKED! I am not interested in learning how to flat twist now. I will use your technique to cornrow my hair and save my sanity. THANK GOD for a SISTER for teaching me how to cornrow. I SuBSCRIBED immediately and will be following you from this day forward. THANK GOD! THANK GOD! someone who knows how to speak, teach and show the technique on the camera. You saved my SANITY. BLESS YOU, Your mother, father, family and whoever gave you life. AMERICA NEEDS YOU!

[@lianna8574]

You're explanation made it seem easier. I just crocheted my hair for the first time watching videos. I can under braid, but can't overboard like cornrows. Your video made it easy. I will practice after I take the crochet out. It will be easier to crochet knowing to cornrows. Thanks for the easy explanation!

[@Angel212NyC]

Adorable. And I love how she’s never that extra. Thank uuuu after 25 years I finally followed :)

[@shay4101]

YASSS Y'ALL WE DID THAT 🌹💯❤❤❤ *My message to the ladies and gents trying this:* Don't give up! Scream and curse all you want. I know your fingers may not know where to go at first.. Or maybe the hair just keeps unraveling n being hella disrespectful lmao. But don't give up. Put those fingers right back in that damn head and try again! I tried watching a video like this maybe a year ago but I didn't have the patience. I think we just give up too fast when we can't get something right. Keep trying and eventually it will happen! Trust me ❤ *P. S.* Thank you for this video beautiful!! It was really helpful! I finally know how to work the fingers lol. It's not looking great at all but I definitely got a cornrow in my head 🤣❣

[@hareme9319]

BROOOO, this is the easiest tutorial ever and I still can't do it. when I fist saw you I was like "oh! another Ethiopian this should be easy! I just cant grab up the hair!!!
