[@Sweetlove351]

Umm when doing braids do you have to lay edges to make it look good cause I've never done my edges before and I'm afraid they will fall out?

[@MRAAng-on2jg]

@Sweetlove351 No you don’t have to lay your edges with braids. Honestly I’d say that choice in styling in relatively new

[@Sweetlove351]

@@MRAAng-on2jg really I wanted to try braids for the first time and I saw this cute hairstyle I wanted to try but I wasn't sure how it would look without laying my edges but I'll still try it without laying my edges to see thanks

This was a great video. Even if you don’t think you’re explaining it the best, keep talking. It might not make sense for me but it’ll click for the next person. I also liked how you showed the “not perfect “ braid but kept it anyways. I’m still learning this method so I have a lot of crazy looking braids and it’s frustrating sometimes to watch tutorials and the person does it perfectly. Thanks for this video.

Great job explaining. How many packs did you use and what was the brand? It looked like it dipped well 😊 I’ve been braiding my hair for years, but I get lazy. I usually just do box braids in the front and cornrows in the back. It goes by much faster.

[@ginabess9758]

Love the criss cross of the brsud hair to start. I hate fat knots at the top of my braids

haha same! i think the bulkiness makes it so hard to style!
