Your messy braids are my neat braids 😭 After a month my hair gets frizzy and it’s time to bounce lol

[@HuntressYalena]

To fix that ...who ever does your braides has to get a max hold gel that complements your hair or could even be the type of hair, also wetting the hair a lot can get it frizzy Not saying these are the problems because i wouldn't know but it is suggestions in case one i mentioned is one

THX YOU...I HAVEN'T HAD BRAIDS SINCE JHS IM 34 AND IT WAS LIKE A WHOLE NEW WORLD FOR ME. THE BRAIDERS ARE YOUNGER AND THEIR TECHNIQUE IS WAY DIFFERENT FROM BACK IN THE DAY WHICH EXPLAINS THE PRICE NOW. HOWEVER SITTING IN THE CHAIR FOR 6 HRS WAS NOT MISSED LOL IAM ENJOYING MY BRAIDS GOT THEM JUNE 17TH 2021 AND STARTED WASHING THEM AFTER THE 4TH OF JULY. NOW WATCHING HOW YOU TWIST I WILL ATTEMPT TO A WASHING AND TWIST FOR MY TRIP JULY 30 - AUG 4TH AND THEN JUST TAKE OUT THE BRAIDS FINALLY. I TRULY ENJOYED YOUR VISEOS THANK YOU.

[@BelovedbyHim]

Definitely tried this one in a half months in with my box braids after washing and wow!!!! They look so fresh!!!

[@sharenewalters1407]

This literally just saved me during quarantine, I did your wash routine and then this with no water as recommended. My hair looks so fresh and clean! I am going to see how long the twists last before i have to redo.

[@elizabethabe1729]

Lord have mercy! Braids for 3 months. I'm bored with the hair after 3 weeks , and it itches after a month even with washing every 2 weeks. I guess we all have different hair. It looks good though

[@jamacianluva2003]

Use the dry shampoo instead of washing them every three weeks

Cleaning my scalp with water and apple cider vinegar has been a game changer for my scalp.

[@shaesilent1713]

Omg I'm telling you sis

[@jenniferasante7504]

Wash them

[@Ghosting2024]

I always wash my hair a week after I get my braids in. It’s the dye in the hair that causes your scalp to itch. I hate smelling people’s hair when they they have braids.

[@drsiza]

I did this method and My braids are almost 3 months old too thank you so much girl ......they still look new

[@kmslaga4184]

OMG Thank you so much!! I am a foster mom and have two African-American girls. I have done box braids on them, but take them out at the end of the week because I didn't know how to wash and maintain them. This will make doing and maintaining their hair so much easier! Thank you!

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

You are so welcome!

[@valeriebanks8877]

Everyone hair is different , for those who are saying their hair looks like a year old after one month I think it just depends on your hair . My hair is naturally curly so I can put moose on my breads and it lays straight down versus some videos where I see a lot of frizziness from their natural hair on the braids . Everybody braids won’t look like this even if well maintained . Thanks for this video , I love the twisties ❤️🙏

[@typ2456]

COVID-19's Quarantine brought me here. 3 months of braids still in! Video really helped! Thanks!

[@taaliyahnatasha4967]

I do this with mine too, the twisting method, it is just like palm twisting a loc, it really does refresh the look and the root. It helps save money too lol and stretches your braid life. Quick fix!

[@memribychoice7368]

I'm trying to keep my braids fresh as well I have it corn rolled in front and kocean wave curl I just cleaned it and I have a water based hairspray I use and a silky cap I place on. However before seeing your video I did take out one braid in the back because it literally looks like it's hanging by a thread.but now I'll use your twist method because I'm trying to keep these in for 3 mos, thanks for great advice!!

[@loricarter4146]

I like your twist method I have had mine up for 16 weeks and I have been trying to maintain until I make it to my next appointment but I think I might have to actually wash my braids because the oil has absorbed in them and it's breaking my face out.

[@alicia.m1387]

I see people do the twist method a lot and I want to try, but I’ve always been scared of what happens to the twists during the upcoming weeks/months. Does the twists turn into locs, does the hair grow and the twist undo, would we have to untwist and clean before re-twisting the hair again?

[@SweetestMapleMami]

I love the half up half down styles and any style with a head band or wrap. All of them were cute honestly.

[@azishapitts6532]

Tried this like u said diffrent hair texture finer hair so might not work so I kept that in mind didnt work my braids are bigger medium size so all I do I add rubber bands to my hair and they look like I got then freshly done people kept saying oh u got your hair redone cause I'm known at my school for always having my hair done lol but yah rubber band method worked alot

[@ShaniqueBuntyn]

[@daciasdiy1861]

What happens to the part that you twist ? Does it dread up or come out ?

[@marlak4203]

i'd put on some gel/wax/holding spray and put it on after twisting it up, put on a scarf to hold it down, sit for a while, and then take it off and then it should lay well and fine.

[@sofiaroyal]

I never knew I needed this 😍 My braids never last long, (okay I take care of them the first 3 day and then I get annoyed... I'll change that) and my hair are completely broken (real hair) so this twisting method seems to pull much on the hair but it's the ideal to maintain the real hair and braid good and healthy together Thank you!

My braids come off after 3-4weeks max, not because I want to, but because my hair tangles real tight at the point where the new growth and my braid meets. If I try twisting, my hair locks in.

[@SAnn1747]

Did you iron your hair out before the braids were put in? Because I have the same amount of hair you do but I feel like they put alot of braids in my head and it just looks full and thicker. This is only day 2 for me, fyi.

Just got medium sized twists installed in my natural hair last week - and they are fuzzy already! 1st time getting braids/twists since being totally natural. I mean you can see my fuzzy hair down the shaft of the twists! Type 4b hair. Any tips on preventing this? Do you think it’s because it’s twists, or that my hair may do this even if I get braids? I do have fuzzy hair and this happens when I try to do twists on my own (keep in mind I am not a hair girl and can’t style it myself to save , my life!).
