Disclaimer: Because a lot of y’all saying some wild stuff in the comments lol. I RE DO MY BRIADS EVERY 2-3 MONTHS, BUT IVE HAD THIS STYLE OF BRAIDS IN MY HAIR FOR OVER A YEAR NOW!!!! And it’s really people that are saying “wash your hair” lmaooo if it’s really people tht think I don’t wash my hair like Imma pray for y’all, that’s all I’m gone say bc wheeewww chilee😂😂. My hair goes down my back while it’s people commenting when their hair barely pass their ear😂😂A lot of y’all comment without watching my video and honestly it’s a little bit Irritating because everything you guys asked I most likely said It in the video. And please don’t comment negative comments bc they will be deleted. Srry to break it to you but your negative energy is not welcomed over here. Thanks to the people that watched my video and left very sweet comments it really means a lot to me❤️❤️❤️ I also did a follow up video where I answered more questions that you guys asked about my hair kzbin.info/www/bejne/oXTYhpyki5qeiJY

[@TheShahQueens]

ItsKalaynaG My opinion...if you would have worded the video tag differently to say revamping same style braids for the year [along those lines] would have been more clearer..... although you have clearly broke it down in the video. I felt the same way, the title threw me off. Be safe and stay healthy.

[@conversationswithadrianne]

It doesn’t matter how you would’ve worded it weird and negative people are going to have something to say. Your hair is far below your underarms, people need to watch, listen and take notes.

[@jasminetigre625]

I grew up with keeping my braids in for a minimum of 3 months. I thought it was normal. But according to most comments the max is around 2 weeks- 1 month. I just recently learned how to braid my own hair and have gone through trials and error ( especially in the parting department) and I've been washing and reusing the same hair about 3 times now. I've never thought to do it how you do it when it's time to refresh. Do it one at a time to keep your parts, very nice. So long as I dont get a permanent part.

[@katharine1285]

Pause!!!! EFFING PAUSE!!! I figured the ending based on the comment "I wash my scalp and I like my part and hair the way it is" soooo that means you reuse the same hair for a year and rebraid one by one because the parts are already where you need them? Smart as hell!!! Listen I wish I parted mine good the first time so I could do this.

[@Benatherine]

I do that with my hair when I have braids in. It's just a lot easier. Or I just take crown down and redo those and leave the middle alone. It saves time and it just makes the style look fresher without all the extra money and time

[@secrets0002]

Benatherine Cooper I also redo the front for "freshness" and if I have color in, I take down the front, recolor and redo the braids...looks good as new...especially as normally my braids fall back...I don't do partings...I had faux locks and after 1month I used new hair to cover the growth, it look like I just had them done...sometimes I use curly hair on the braids and cover new growth...I normally take down the style every 3months...

[@rooksdb1]

Everybody is talking about how patient she is she leaving them in that long; can we talk about how patient she is for having them THAT LONG??? My thighs would have sucked them in until I had a tail in the front. Everytime I sat down, I know my ass would catch it and leave me in a paralysis of weave. I'm an undisciplined sleeper so every morning waking up would be like emerging from my cocoon but instead of a beautiful butterfly, I would look more like a gremlin after it got wet. My braids are down to the middle of my back and I'm annoyed all the time. 😂😂

I got so much shit when I was a child trying to wear braids that I gained a negative idea about wearing them, but now that I'm old, I absolutely love them! I get why you want them long, because that 20" stuff limits what you can really do, you end up with weird pieces sticking out all kindsa awkward ways, end up using so many bobby pins to make it right. I'm going to try jumbo box braids because I do not have the patience you have to make all your hair so immaculate. Thanks for sharing your how to on maintaining braids. I always used braid cleansers instead of washing because my hair is mixed, but not the good kind and it dreadlocks in water, especially if I can't comb it out after.

This is how I do my daughter’s braids every year. At the six week mark, I redo the front one day and the back the next day. This year I kept them in 3 1/2 months. Her hair was shoulder length when I put them in but almost bra strap length when I took them completely down! I realized I was VERY harsh when taking them out. That’s why she wasn’t retaining length. Keeping them moisturized and taking them down slowly helped a lot. I’m putting them back in a week until the week before Thanksgiving. Then it’s natural twist until Christmas. I’ll get her hair pressed for pictures.

[@rialequay1787]

I thought the same thing! Omg!! Just crazy. Glad she made it through

[@LaDonna-nl6dm]

I do my own braids too and I feel like I spend so much time on my braids. Mines aren’t even as long as this . So I know for a fact it took forever the first time she did these .

[@therealdes296]

I’m about to start leaving my braids in long too because I need my hair as long as yours 😭

[@tashawnowens4890]

I've been watching hair videos for a cool minute and every blue moon i learn something new and today is one of those days!!! Thanks for sharing 💜

[@itskalaynag2065]

Thank you for watching❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@evacapri9769]

You have the patience I used to have 😂

[@Ada-zg2qb]

I've been doing this too and it's a life saver. Everyone thinks I just keep going to the braiding salon.

[@honeyboo098765]

Are you cutting them when you take them out ?? If not try that it’ll help you cut down time tremendously

[@itskalaynag2065]

I was cutting some as I went.

[@honeyboo098765]

ItsKalaynaG your hair is pretty long cut them mid back girl they gone start taking themselves down lol great content tho subscribed!

[@itskalaynag2065]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😘😘😁

[@tobymarley1]

That's so true.... it takes FOREVER to do your own head.....especially if ur doing knotless on your own. I can see myself doing this frfr

[@tjthegreatest420]

Did anybody find away to go bac to 2019 yet?🤔

[@sannicelesteobsidian4325]

Ouuuu yessss 🥺❤️❤️❤️ loveeee the length. I’m going to try this on my mixed-race hair and I hope I can maintain my hair like this because it takes sooo much work & product(moisturizer then oil daily) for shoulder length hair that dosent exactly compliment my face shape so I’m soooo excited & happy I found this video

[@jeila__2629]

wait so u re-did them 2 or 3 months ago😭???? Cuz yo hair grow fast asfffff gah damn

[@itskalaynag2065]

[@denysedenyse4070]

@@itskalaynag2065 please pass that on to me.

[@jeila__2629]

ItsKalaynaG wooow I need your hair follicles fr😭💀

[@Wanted1_2]

Of course she washes her hair. Even people in locks that don't retwist them for a year still wash their hair. Why should the narrative change. Girl you're the real MVP

[@itskalaynag2065]

Thank you love. I appreciate you❤️❤️❤️‼️‼️

[@xyzp69]

Lord you go with your bad self with those long long braids.

[@zinhlem138]

U jst made me fall 4 your humour, " I'm just sayin it takes 2 secs 2 subscribe"😂😂😂 took me 1 second

[@itskalaynag2065]

Hahaha😂😂😂😂

[@akiraelai8053]

Is this hair itchy or do you have any problems with it ? Because I’m about to buy some😭 alsooo, how many packs do you currently have in your head ?😩

[@Sumtinggs]

[@MrAziazhane]

Soak in a tub of water with Apple Cider vinegar for about an hour! Luckwarm water. You will see all the stuff that makes your hair itchy float to the top,rinse with cool water and hang to dry. My scalp would litterally be inflamed from being so itchy, after doing this I never got that itchiness again! And don't worry it won't smell like vinegar

[@krystalsmith5218]

I do the same. I wash my hair while my twists are still in and then i rebraid my hair one braid at a time and I have reused my hair for the past 5 years. I do need to start replacing some hair because the twist were jumbo size but they are now really thin. But this method is great for people wanting to look beautiful on a budget.

[@itskalaynag2065]

Yess. Love it❤️❤️‼️‼️

[@krystalsmith5218]

Another thing, the last time i had my hair twisted, i kept it in for a year, with maintenance every three months. When i finally took it down i soaked my braided hair in water, shampoo baking soda an vinegar. After soaking i rince and hang to dry. I then put it right back in the hair bag it came from. I refuse to waste money. I work too hard to be wasting moned on products i already have but don't want to take care of. The hair i use for my twists are the cuban twist braid

[@tashiannathomas5506]

Umm... is it safe to leave the hair mayonnaise in? I thought that was a protein treatment🤔

[@nazjai9333]

tashianna thomas i was thinking the exact same thing. I use to leave it in my hair for 30 mins then wash it out

[@JamieNicole1988]

tashianna thomas......you are suppose to wash it out ..... so I thought..... I wash mines out.

[@ebknows]

I admire the strength she has to actually do her own hair. Wow!!

[@itskalaynag2065]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ida-pt2nj]
