my hair is curly, its root is smooth, even more because it is short. Can I do this method smoothly, without the fear of my hair slipping? Beautiful video 💞

[@Hoojadaddy]

Beatriz W Mayrinck If you edge control your curly hair very well there shouldn’t be a problem! BUTTT you can always blow dry your hair for a smoother technique! Make sure your bands are tight, but sure to take the bands down correctly as well! Some people tend to shed!

Kinda confused on the wrapping of the hair . Do you split the two completely ?

[@Hoojadaddy]

I’m not sure what you mean by your question! Can you rephrase it for me lol?? Are you talking about when you’re about place the braid??

[@BOTunez]

I’m sorry . Do you half wrap it around the other strand of hair like before you place it on your head . Or are you fully wrapping that one piece of hair around the other ? That might sounds confusing too

[@BOTunez]

Also you said you used 6? 6 different packs or just 2 of those packs of 3 ?

Are the thin black rubber bands bad for the hair?

Yes and no.... it depends if your hair is prone to breakage. Some people like to use oil on elastics bands to prevent breakage. I suggest to just cut out the bands carefully.

[@camii6053]

I did not understand how to do the begining like the dividing of the added hair

[@Hoojadaddy]

Cami Cami The outre hair is not like most packs which is why I divided it how I did. BUT a standard pack of braiding hair should make at least 2-3 braids depending on how large you want your braids! I always go for 2, but I’m dramatic with my hairstyles! I hope this helped!

[@kellsliving3220]

what if you want them small

[@Hoojadaddy]

You would make your parts smaller and you would also have to make your sections of braiding hair smaller. If you do, try a test braid out to see the size you want!

[@kellsliving3220]

Can you do a take down video. I'm nervous about using rubber bands and would like to see the proper way to take them out.. Or you can just respond back and let me know how you do it. Thanks and great video btw!

[@Hoojadaddy]

Cam Con The safest way would be to have someone help you cut them out. Most times I didn’t have someone so I would take down the braid I would be left with my hair and rubberband I would then lift the rubberband with my finger and cut OR I would lift the rubberband with my finger and undo it all together until it was fully separated from my hair Most times the rubberband does break. Sometimes it’s very secure. Use a rattail comb to lift if you can’t use your finger.

[@Hoojadaddy]

I hope this helps!

And thank you!! And goodluck, be careful!!
