How to Cornrow for Beginners, Step-by-Step | Part 1 of Braiding Series

[@Lorna756]

Thank you this is the best video ive watched and I've been trying for a minute. I have a 27 yr old bi-racial daughter and I have pretty much mastered the parting and single braiding but I have never been able to grasp the concept. Well now my daughter's 4 kids live with me and the 9 yr is not having it lol she said grandma you need to learn. All 4 were gone for the first weekend in months and I grabbed a doll and finally found your video im pretty sure i got it. Thank you

[@rebecamico1969]

Today is my first class of studying i will come back and learn again until i understand it thanks ❤

[@BossThe21]

You’re an amazing teacher 😭 I’ve watched videos for years trying to learn. And now I have it

[@RulaOfMe]

I’m a man trying to learn how to braid my own hair and your video is the most detailed specific teaching for beginners this was a major help your teaching skills is top tier thanks love❤

[@stephanieroberts4026]

Thank you so much for this video I can’t tell you how many videos I’ve watched and never truly understood but the way you broke down the hand technique was exactly what I needed so thank you you literally just showed me exactly how to braid. You are an amazing teacher.😊❤

[@ednam4701]

I’m just going through the same thing right now

[@MarianUdoh]

I love the way you teach especially the way you keep your fingers…. you are really a good teacher. 👍🏼

[@feliciafee555]

How hard is it to transition to practicing braiding on own hair? My hands get confused and tangled 🤔💜

[@ChelseaAlexa]

I would say when you feel like your fingers are comfortable with the motions, you can try moving onto braiding your own hair. Since you can’t see, you’re gonna have to rely on muscle memory so you wanna make sure you understand what your hands are gonna be doing

[@dianekiki9651]

Easy to do with long hair...not so much with short hair

I have been struggle cornrowing my hair for yearssss. Tonight i decided to come to youtube to learn the correct way since im new to wearing wigs & want them to lay down perfectly. Your video is the 3rd video I watched. And girl! I just cornrowed my hair beautifully (almost). Thank you for this!! You just made my ancestors proud ❤

[@kemberlymatamoros1484]

This has been the easiest video to really show me how to cornrow. I’ve seen so many but this one really breaks down everything down to the tea. Thank you❤❤

[@princessjodanabanana6158]

This is the best video I've seen for beginners like me. I can do box braids but still rubbish at corn rows! This explains it perfectly.

[@ChelseaAlexa]

Cornrows took me a while to get but yeah box braids were easier to me too! Thank you for watching! I’m glad I could help 😊

[@Fogger80]

Oh my gawd THANK YOU 🎉 I've been trying to understand this for 12 years! Finally someone who explained it perfectly.

[@kristencoleman6339]

[@sarahposhful]

First time here well detailed tutorial thanks for sharing 👍🏾

[@keiraanderson4850]

I been knowing how to Braid at 15 but I always wanted to go to school but right now I learn from KZbin

[@ChelseaAlexa]

Thank you so much! I’m ngl, school doesn’t really teach you much about braiding. I’m the one that taught for the most part during the braid chapters at cosmo school lol it’s better to learn on your own for braiding at least so you’re definitely doing the right thing!

[@IsaiahAnsaful]

Good one there ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@NomthandazoMavuso-r8u]

Yes 😊

[@tcthirdeye]

Thank you for this, so detailed, I had my aha moments. New subbie.

[@ChelseaAlexa]

Yayyy I live for the “aha” moments lol thank you for watching and subscribing! ❤️

[@gaonepauladikobe2368]

This is the best ever detailed tutorial I've come across. But I'll never get this right, I've practiced so many times but my hands get so confused. How do you "maintain the 3 strands" and also not mix them when you let go of the other hand? 😢😢😢

[@ChelseaAlexa]

Thank you for watching! It just takes some getting used to. You have to figure out which piece of hair you’re going to hold in between or on top of which fingers. It’s uncomfortable at first because our fingers aren’t used to be used in that way most times but eventually you’ll be able to hold the hair in between your fingers with one hand with no problem. I know I keep saying practice but it’s also to build up dexterity in your fingers to be able to hold onto hair. Work extremely slowly at first to see what your fingers naturally wanna do and then speed up as you get the hang of it and eventually your fingers will do the work without you even realising

[@preciousmulenga6819]

Wow am gonna try this I really really need to learn this cornrows

[@ritatolbert6395]

She's great.shes does good lessons

[@yihannajohnson3711]

I did my first cornrows today, but I still need to keeping practicing more. I need to learn how to part the hair.

[@ChelseaAlexa]

As long as you did them, it’s only up from here! I wish I could add a video to my comment because I actually have a video dedicated to parting already up on my channel if you look in the “Braiding Series” playlist!

[@chinonyelumanumba]

thank soo much, this is sooo helpful, its so easier watching this video. thanks sooo much.

[@treasureunique8101]

I just want to say thank you so much. I literally have been trying to learn how to cornrow all my life now this definitely was one of the easiest videos to follow. I wish I can attach pictures. ♥️♥️

[@ChelseaAlexa]

Omg yayyy that makes me so happy to hear 🥹 thank you for watching! And feel free to send photos to my IG DMs if you’re on Insta! 🥰

[@sophiec5842]

Thank you. This has to be the best video I have seen on corn rows. I'm going to try on my daughters hair. Thank you for slowing it down and making it easy 👍👍

[@loveandro6074]

Super helpful! I was hoping to also see it on curly/coily hair too.

[@ChelseaAlexa]

I don’t have a video of me braiding a curly haired mannequin but I do have quite a few videos on my channel of me cornrowing my natural hair in its blown out state that I think might offer a different perspective

You’re so welcome! Thank you for watching 💕

[@TerryMcclackion]

OMG,thank you so much for the video sooooooooo helpful

[@haileeeyleneaa1086]

I have a question. So when you have the middle and right or left strand in one hand how do you not get those two pieces mixed up? Cause they are both in the same fingers? Thats where i always mess up.

[@ChelseaAlexa]

Honestly, I absolutely got those 2 pieces mixed up when I first started learning 😂 my advice would be to move slowly and really look to see exactly what your fingers are doing. For me, I have one piece of hair in between my finger and one on top of my finger. You can definitely try it that way too but ultimately, you have to find whichever finger positioning works best for you. It might not be the same as mine

[@Dr_mrsfagaci]

You teach really good

[@ChelseaAlexa]

Thank you! And thank you for watching 💓
