May the Lord bless you double fold and give you beyond measure all that you asked for, all that you need, and all that your heart desires. Thank you for sharing your gifts, talents, and wisdom with us. It is appreciated and greatly welcomed. God bless you dear! You are my favorite braider on youtube!

That doesn't look painful its neat and the technique is clear, thank you so much.

[@destinyconsonery8043]

Just to be honest with you, it starts to hurt after a few minutes and then it's gonna be painful. It depends who's doing the hair. But I hope you will like your style 👍🏾

Her braids are beautiful!!! You are a gifted hair braider Glam By Merry. God bless you!! and your business.

[@dpurplepalm]

Thank you so much!!!!! Over directing was the key that I needed. I wasn't gripping as tight as I wanted until you explained that one simple technique. I've watched so many braiding videos but this did it for me. I so appreciate it!🌷

[@ScorpioCoCoRenale]

I love how neat they are we braid the same! I'm going to try the counts next time I do an client's hair, it looks like it helps a lot with staying on track!

[@sharonab07]

The satisfaction of a nice braid!

[@whitneysewell2186]

Look the 6-count actually got me motivated on doing my hair tomorrow !!! Thank you for this video love ❤️

[@lcassieking5806]

Great tutorial ❗️ I’m trying to learn how to do my own hair it’s the back that is really going to get me 😫

[@MsManYouSuck]

Best video. I have watched so many. After watching this one i was able to braid my whole head.

[@ruthogunro2746]

This is one of the best tutorials i've seen. Thank you so much. Very well explained and broken done in stages.

[@MsChelle_BIAM]

Omg you just made my life easier. I was using the banding method for the roots to give it that smooth tight, but not tight look.. Not anymore. Thank you for this. It looks really good.

[@MiMi-vb8lg]

I am so Happy to have found your tutorial!!! You are very Good at giving clear instructions!! I am going to attempt box braids now!! Thank you.

[@brittanydeppe6595]

I am learning for my daughter - i have watched quite a few videos but could just not start correctly.. either my hand motion wasn't correct and it was a mess, I couldn't get the braid all the way to the scalp and looked terrible, OR the hair would slip as she has silky hair similar to mine. I am a visual learner and this helped me map out the hand movement so much btter. I also JUST realized that I was holding the hair in the wrong hand, and now it makes sense why I just couldn't get it.. I start with my right hand after first grabbing the natural hair and now I can clearly see what i've been doing wrong. can't wait to try it out :) def. saved to my favorites. thank you!

[@amberpatterson3675]

These braids are so beautifully Done💋💋💋💋

[@lauracabe]

Omg i will be trying these on myself for the first time in my life as soon as you make that parting video and i can put it all together with your other videos on grip, and preparing the hair, product recommendations etc. Best ive found on youtube thanks!

[@sfrazierful]

Oh em gee. This is the best video that I’ve seen thus far. You make it so easy to understand. Thank you

[@oneoriginalpjay6680]

can you show how you loop the braiding hair before you place it on scalp?

[@Arbj]

Thank you, I believe that would have been a very helpful technique to show to beginners, I mean Im still lost

[@mimiko339]

That's what I was thinking!

[@earnestwillis9940]

Yeah no one really told the truth about how to start the braids off..most move their hands from camera view. But its a girl on you tube now who shows step by step..

[@BeautyLuvsMii]

Great work! Came out perfect! I hate when people do box braids and part them in a real box(square)🙄 that’s so wrong because that’s not the way the hair grows. Thanks again for your tutorial

[@angiesolsberry2791]

Very neat and beautiful

[@kaylaevans3131]

Also how do you keep the hair even all the way down the braid and don’t get crooked(if that makes sense lol)

[@diannemonroe4879]

Loved this video! It helped me so much . I was struggling with tightness at root I think the over directing will help me as a beginner. I loved how you took us step by step. The only video I have commented on lol. Please show how to make hair same size and how count out your sections of hair fir different styles . Also what’s best length to get I tried 24 and it tapers off too quickly . I have subscribed bless you. I’ll be watching!!

[@indigenousqueen5561]

Gorgeous braids sis u rock💯🔥👸🏾

[@pamelapghafoor7736]

Those are awesome, but, everything that looks easy, may not be so for everyone! I would have to make sure that I have the beeswax first, and dunking the ends and steam is important also for appearance! But those are all that! Quick, cute, and cost effective! Worth a try for the time you don't need to do your hair, and it rests with a braid spray & cap!
