I love the design but more importantly I love your transparency! I braid my own hair too and sometimes the finished product don't match our vision! Lol. I still think it's cute though.

[@fromchicagowithacountryaccent]

Bravo to you when I put single braids in my hair my arms feel like they’re about to fall off 😂 I haven’t learned how to do cornrows in my own hair I guess it’s something I have to live with because that would take too much time you did a awesome job ❤

[@DuchessBraids]

It still takes me a long time. I will not attempt singles. 😂

[@chrystalgraham1309]

Mine too lol. Shoulders be burning

[@japeriawilliams4470]

I appreciate the honesty and taking us through the process on how to make it work for the time being. Thank you!!!

[@tiffanyweston3808]

love the way the hairstyle came out super cute

[@DuchessBraids]

Awww thank you! I love the front!

[@TraceyJean]

I love the design in the front.

[@DuchessBraids]

Thanks love! 💗

[@lorinramsey3959]

Girl you slayed that! It’s natural & gorgeous.

[@llccreative]

This is cute. I think it came out really nice and I’m thinking of getting this same style just with wooden beads on the end of the braids. Thanks 4 sharing!

[@DuchessBraids]

Great idea!! No problem!

[@justgigi3258]

I think it's still pretty, you did that ❤😊

[@DuchessBraids]

Thanks hon! 😊

[@ahsatan3471]

Thanks!

[@camnangsong68]

Perfectly executed! 💯

[@bwksalon]

Sometimes it just doesn't work out but you made it work for your benefit and it looks great.

[@starlafaulkner8438]

I think it turned out great. I will say that it is a little full on the top back but other than that it was very cute to me. You rocked it girl 😍

[@DuchessBraids]

lol thank hon! Glad you liked it!

[@TheBlessed1427]

It was super cute, just the same!! Even though it didn't come out how you wanted, it still was working for you. I pray that you had a fantastic vacation!! Blessings always to you and yours 🙏🏾💞

[@DuchessBraids]

Thanks love! I really did! I always have the best times in Jamaica.

[@PsychologyofLove101]

You have amazing talent! Love it! ❤️

[@danytatownsend8841]

The style still was really pretty,you couldn't even tell that you didn't do that on purpose because we always throw a ponytail or clawclip in on vacation. Hubby was not about to fall for your shenanigans 😂

[@DuchessBraids]

lol! True! Girl he was out, didn’t stick around for the mess! 😂😂

[@jacquelynn2051]

The work and time you put into this is so beautiful to me and I thank you. At the end of the day, life be Lifeing so I for one appreciate the realness. Hope you had a great vacation …thanks again!

[@DuchessBraids]

Thanks love, it was a girls trip for my bff birthday.

[@MsVaughnKitty]

This was so relatable. I dipped my spring twists like an IDIOT! I’ll just blame me being bald for 7 years and forgetting that’s a no no. They went from cute and bouncy to ropes hanging from my head. Big cry energy 😂

[@DuchessBraids]

Girl I feel your pain on that! I’ve dipped hair before that didn’t need to be dipped and learned that lesson the HARD way!

[@CharTurner6928]

oh no, not the spring twist. I can imagine how cute it looked before tragedy struck. I know that hurt.

[@juanitatutt6677]

Either way very cute, you can rock any style.

[@DuchessBraids]

Thanks love! 💗

[@bridgetsuttles9908]

Cute braid pattern in front. I think your fix would have worked with a loose low pony too. You worked it out girl.

[@DuchessBraids]

Yes, like a sleek pony with loose hair?

[@CharTurner6928]

Please, keep the "braiding your own hair" series coming. Duchess, "That looks good enough, I'm not starting over" When doing her own hair, Duchess is one of us, y'all!🎉 Girl, you did not wait until the last-last minute to do your hair for vacation.🤣 #RealLife I think the final results still look great. Your vacation photos are beautiful. *I say, If the husband wants 2 wives, the wife gets to have 2 husbands. It's the only way.*

[@boldvictory1]

I’m definitely a new subscriber! I’ve been looking for branders who do their own bc I’m a DIY girly and I’m new to braiding + you know my boo Jaelah! Happy to support you! The style came out cute!

[@0tismadaline]

Beautiful hairstyle❤you did great and you are looking absolutely gorgeous 😍

[@JamillaWorsley1986]

This came out so freaking 🔥🔥🔥🔥i love it duchess. Duchess i know your arms were tired cuz mines was aching just by looking at you doing it. It still came out so freaking 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@DuchessBraids]

Girl yes! On fire!!! But I stuck it out! 😂😂😂

[@TiffSoRandom]

I love the braid pattern! I’m gonna try it with single braids in the back

[@senetraburns763]

Awesome job, we’re always our worst critics. I will cop this style And 🙏🏾 thanks for sharing 🙏🏾

[@DuchessBraids]

lol! Thank you! Yes we are! I knew ya’ll would ride for it, even tho it didn’t turn out how I expected.

[@AliyahLelievre]

really teaching me techniqur for braiding and I love it. Thank you :D

[@UnapologeticPressure]

I am a long time self braider I know what you mean yet you still slayed the look, 💯💚💚💚💚💚💚

[@shymiekacarty8025]

It came out pretty good, for a quick & versatile style

[@terrymcclay3897]

I've tried to do braids like this and my fingers don't want to cooperate with me, this looks so pretty, you make it look so easy 🖤😊

[@DuchessBraids]

lol! It hurts my hands for sure but just plenty of practice over the years.

[@anahadora]

Its still really pretty! I have a hard time braiding on scalp and this video was the best i every came by, your braids were 🔥 ill be trying a style similar to that for practice on my self. Thanks for sharing, your video was very much not in vain 🙌🏾

[@l.e.bingham6643]

Hello you still look beautiful have a safe and wonderful trip GOD BLESS. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💖🥰💯💫🌷🕊️

[@DuchessBraids]

Thank you love! I did, it was great! 😊😂

[@tinajohnson8341]

That Is So Beautiful And You’re So Talented Thank You ❤

[@FloraWilliams-i4x]

Patricia here: you did a really good job, it's so pretty. You have a wonderful day and God bless❤

[@martha9565]

You Can put some jewerly, bravo, this IS cute 🥺

[@k.s.jackson7704]

You may want to try thin flexi rods dipped in hot water for hair left out of the braids.

[@dmt7808]

This is cute!! What kind of braiding hair did you use?

[@DuchessBraids]

I believe this was the RuWA hair.

[@EmorettaRobinson]

I think the design of the braids is pretty. You know you are talented. I like the interlocking braids. And I like the texture of the clip-ins in the back. I low-key was trying to figure out whatever happened with your media room though? I remember watching a short on KZbin of you receiving the chairs for it. And the carpet being installed. I'll have to go back and see what I missed. The bathroom looks luxurious and spa like though.

[@DuchessBraids]

Girl nothing! I lost passion and moved on! It’s sitting there staring at me now, wondering when I’m gonna finish it! 😬 I feel bad leaving ya’ll hanging like that! So many people loved that video. 😂

[@EmorettaRobinson]

@@DuchessBraids it's ok. It'll be there when you get back to it. No worries.

[@Congolesegirl_243]

Thank you so much 😭❤ love from Germany 🇩🇪

[@LuckySteelDrums-sc7gq]

It's nicely done it's tribal braids I would have just added hair jewelry for the 👑👠💄👛✈️🛳️🥂🍾

[@DuchessBraids]

Yes some African beads would be great for this style!

[@pantera7086]

Please please show how to straight the hair before branding what type of products and hair dryer or whatever is needed.

[@LatanyaPatterson]

It's giving Cute vibes❤❤❤❤❤ Iove it

[@pp20173]

Lol that was my whole natural hair journey......spending hours in the bathroom for the style to not turn out the way I wanted the next day and then having to find something to do to it last minute. 😭

[@DuchessBraids]

lol! I hate that! I really thought I was gonna wake up and it was gonna be a hit! lol

[@pp20173]

​@@DuchessBraids lol that's one of the worst feelings, when your hair isn't how you want. That and when I can't find my phone. 😆

[@wanasj5942]

❤❤ love, love it, girl. You are awesome !!! 👌

[@DuchessBraids]

Thank you!

[@tanias1678]

Beautiful job 😊

[@DuchessBraids]

Thank You! ☺️

[@rachels4034]

You slayed that hair sis ❤ still cute.

[@ltown624]

great video on braiding, do you have a video on how to measure the extension for your braids, pencil size, 1, 2 inch?

[@DuchessBraids]

I typically add in as much as 1 leg of my braid. So the size changes based on where I am in the braid process. Front add-ins will be smaller than the back ones.

[@ltown624]

@@DuchessBraids great, thank you!

[@reneemitchell8947]

Love the video your hair look great

[@DuchessBraids]

Thank You!

[@shellyrking7213]

You made it work. Love the frnt!

[@crazysaturdays9724]

Oh my gosh him and the kids are twins especially the second baby

[@DuchessBraids]

Girl splitting image with the baby! lol! Milah starting to look more like me. But I had no parts in making the baby! Lol

[@ScorpionSongbird]

It's never a miss with you😊

[@DuchessBraids]

lol! I appreciate that cause I really be in my head! 😂😂

[@ScorpionSongbird]

Most creatives are...enjoy your gift

[@celisamorris4321]

I have a similar experience on my so called bohemian trials in the front of my hair! It has been pony tailed too the whole time which is alright till I do it over because all that work only to fail was not as cute as yours!!! Live and learn!

[@totjazzy2198]

You braid neatly. I love it. ❤ If you would have had a better hair match then you could have worn it down, but it was still cute.

[@Msbeautifullydefined]

It’s definitely still cute I liked the loose hairs but we are our own worst critics girl whatever makes you comfortable you always slay in my opinion

[@Shaysongz1989]

You made it work! Beautiful!

[@jackierandolph3603]

Hi Duchess I still love it's beautiful. ❤❤❤

[@nickyranking398]

I would have loved to see how you did the cross over though

[@Rabbit_goose]

Ok first of all you KiLLed it like always we are so hard on ourselves. Love your videos, you've helped me so much with styling my biracial daughter's hair. Hubby like is she for real? LMAO girl he doesn't need another wife, he has you right? Much love XO

[@DuchessBraids]

Lol! Thanks girl! And he knew immediately I was not serious. 😂😂 but yes I am very hard on myself when styling. Don’t know why, but I definitely need to ease up!

[@LivingInTheShade]

You saved it, it looked good pinned back.

[@DuchessBraids]

lol! That claw clip was my best friend the whole trip!

[@acholamum9590]

It's Still looks cute enjoy ur vacation 👏

[@cleodossantos3359]

It came out cute

[@DuchessBraids]

I want to do these so bad!!!

[@voncinastafford-corley3769]

I think it was cute. You could have left it the way it was. But I think you did a good job myself!

[@DuchessBraids]

😂 oh no, those loose curls were getting to me. 😂 but thank you so much 😊

[@rhondafriday6878]

My hat off to you for committing to braiding your own hair, that is much harder (in my opinion) than doing others hair. Have you ever done tree braids?

[@DuchessBraids]

Thank you hon. It is much harder, I can’t even do stitch braids on my hair. I’ve maybe done tree braids once before

[@lashawnpickett]

You coulda used some tiny perm rods and dipped in hot water, maybe to get it to blend better. It's really cute I see the idea you were going for. I hate when that happens to me. But great job

[@christenbass380]

In my the new year 2025 will you be taking customers👉🏾👈🏾😅maybe specifically braids for a wedding like this style but like just into a simple braided bun??

[@valerienaylor1069]

Super cute ❤❤

Thank You! ☺️

[@lannachari1990]

I feel like you could’ve finessed this style by adding beads after cutting out the feed in hair. Still ❤️‍🔥 though😩😂

[@DuchessBraids]

You right! Since it had that tribal look to it! Would have been fire. 🔥

I will for sure! More of my regular viewers are tuning in for this so I’ll keep them coming

[@tiffanyashby1793]

I felt it looked good, you could barely tell that there were braids in the back. I more think it was your expert eyes that could have seen the difference in textures that made it look bad to you because i couldn't tell the difference
