HOW TO: BANTU KNOT ON very SHORT NATURAL HAIR

Since being in lockdown and having a lack of access to beauty supply stores & beauty professionals I’ve found myself having to go back to the BASICS.
.
.
.
What does that look like you might ask?
.
.
It looks like ... Improvising and using what you already have. Because this was definitely a pack of old braiding hair I just had laying around. Now I’m not gunna lie to yal I was a bit skeptical that I could even achieve this look on such short natural hair but leave it to my favorite edge control @stylefactor_edge and a lil elbow grease and we got the job done. (Never let the shrinkage fool ya😭😂)
.
.
Corona not stopping nothing over here! Check out this affordable #Lockdownlook on how I achieved this BANTU KNOT style on short natural hair.

Finally someone with actual twa that gives a tutorial some people post stating twa but their length is more medium that doesn't help me at all 😔 because I have twa hair Thank you girl this helped me 💓☺️

[@Shes_Royal777]

Wow first let me give your props for getting right into the video. Most ppl want to play commercial and a bag of talking which make me mad. But anywho. My hair recently cut 5 mon now and it’s been under a wig and not breathing or barely growing. To see someone hair shorter than mines do this Gurl u made my day.

[@kiyokoshimizu5140]

Is it just me or people with short hair slay there hair all the time and when I try it with my kinda long hair it look jacked up/

[@Radiantglow2]

Wow u did so well getting ur short hair to cooperate 😍

[@louisemobley]

Mary O thank you!!!

[@ftngie]

[@YaaGyimah89]

Yes! With a capital Y. I usually unravel mine to go to bed

How do you sleep at night?

[@louisemobley]

I don’t.

[@micahmoore2424]

@@louisemobley so what do you do? You take them out them put them back in?

[@louisemobley]

@@micahmoore2424 hi Micah, It depends. Sometimes I take them completely out but most times I’ll just take out the sides so that I can sleep comfortably. Hope this helps.

[@user-bv5hu3lq8f]

How do you sleep with this hairstyle 😖

[@briannacherise]

I did this style twice and it’s safe to say that you might have a hard time sleeping unless you unwrap it all and re-wrap the next morning

[@cosmic-royal-being1330]

Luv it
