I'm so glad to see someone do these braids. I've been doing them like this and don't know what to call it lol they aren't just box braids or micros, they are half done and super fun! love your video's you are beautiful❤😍😚

[@ayshasharpe7378]

Over in the UK. We call them pick 'n' drop braids

[@Itsbabyj1]

These are actually so cute on you❤️

[@SuperIndia18]

I usual soak the hair in vinegar before installing to combat itch! It works! They're lovely though. Great job.

[@grahamsnaturalcurls]

Love the lighting and the background of your video and the hair looks nice too 😃

[@celestialweaver8460]

Graham :D I saw you over at MoKnowsHair too ;P

[@miamiles7996]

Love your hair I'm going to get my hair done like this and I'm going to CRINGE when I cut the virgin Indian hair off the track

[@mirandaajames742]

Someone already mentioned soaking the braiding hair in apple cider vinegar before installing, I agree. My head would always get itchy until I started doing this. Try 2:1 ratio of water:ACV. Also spritzing my scalp with pure 100% aloe vera juice (natural humectant) also helps keep my scalp moisturized when have braids or twists. I leave the oil for the ends of braids so I don't develop too much buildup on my scalp.

[@ichik333]

This is so unique...I've personally never seen any style like this before. I'm gonna have to try this out next. I like the versatility and the ability to use heat to style it differently! Thanks for sharing

[@gabbyperez126]

you were the first ipsy girl I began following. I love how blunt and straight forward you are and you are very realistic. I love all of your videos

[@EBB505]

This is what I was looking for!!!😍😍😍 the colour and everything

[@Wolfhailstorm]

Your thoughts are all rambly and I love it! Hehe, you're a dream to listen to and your hair looks great! I've been wanting to try Carol's Daughter hair care for ages!! Just subscribed! ^^

[@saymslee]

Lip combo?! Plus, I never thought of using bundles to do braids..thanks!

[@yehete]

Also, I recommend, 2:1 ratio of water to apple cider vinegar(spray bottle) or tea tree oil for the itchiness. Sometimes braiding hair/extensions make your hair itchy. :)

[@laciej]

Yes! Also, soaking the hair in ACV before installing to get off all of those harsh chemicals!

[@EuniceAOA]

THE BACKGROUND THOOOO!!!

[@NkennaRose]

Sulfur 8 helps for itchy scalp with braids! You have to get past the smell but it really does help!

[@janecartersolution]

Hey Jalessa! Your braids are super cute! Really glad you are enjoying our Incredible Curls to keep that scalp supple and moist! It has many uses, wash and go's is another option, for when you take your braids out! You would also love our Moisture Mist and Scalp Nourishing Serum to keep your scalp healthy while you keep in your braids! xoxo JCS Team

[@armstrlin]

Jaleesa...I watch your videos because you and I have a very similar complexion and coloring. Your confidence and creativity with how you apply make up, create looks, and try different things with your hair helps me to 'see' other possibilities ♡♡. Thank you.

[@LeftyzProductions1]

Hey! don't use too many products too often in your hair with the braids because it will cause buildup, which causes buildup knots at the root of your hair starting after new growth or braids loosening. My knots weren't too bad mainly at my front and back edges. You just have to comb them out gently. Maybe you can figure out a different solution to this. I just took my braids out today and thank goodness I only kept them in for only a month. My hair definitely came out some, which is probably normal because without braids during styling you lose strands of hair anyway. All I used was some vitamin E oil which I just dripped in my roots to help with the itchiness. I had medium size braids and loved them. I love your braids as well. Thanks for sharing!

[@sparklechild]

You’re my new fav. So cute! I’m getting my first tree braids tomorrow 💕

[@Simply_Deanna_726]

I know this is an old video, but I'm glad to find your version. I've never only seen people do this with the full curls. But I wanted a soft wave version. Yours is the first example I have seen to give me a visual of how it would look.

[@blacknetizen]

Did you soak the braiding hair in apple cider vinegar before braiding? I know untreated braiding hair can cause itchiness for a lot of people.

[@Josephiene]

Love it! What's up with your own hair? Can you do an update?

[@happycuteness9733]

I LOVE your braids! I need to practice so I can braid my own hair instead of going to a shop to get it done. Just gorgeous! 😍 💕

[@arielharris2104]

So cute and edgy! Love the braids!!!

[@Shawanda2012]

you should try faux locs next time! I think they would suit you!

[@harlingsarah]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@khadejahclarke3885]

this looks amazing. please do a tutorial.

[@blessednbeautiful1]

You can find braid clips and beads at a beauty supply store. Your hair looks great!!!

[@l.christinejones8164]

Washing the braiding hair in vinegar and water before hand is a must love. That removes the chemical on the braiding hair that irritates the scalp and causes terrible itching.

[@yehete]

The style and color is cute! You did such a great job, it doesn't look like your first time braiding! I want some braids now 😂

[@charmaineespeut4627]

Your hair looks nice! You should've done a tutorial

[@almetas_grandbaby]

I LOVE the braids! I wish my hair was short enough to achieve this look. If I attempted and left my hair out it would curl all the way back up! I need to find a way to achieve this look!!

[@ariesbyfire]

So close to one mil! Can’t believe how far you’ve come! #gogirl 👌🏽💕

[@latoyamedley6654]

Love the braids! You make me wanna go back to 6 grade Latoya again! lol.. make-up tutorial on what your wearing!! PS: Love your face! PSS: my sister uses sea breeze on her hair, in a spray bottle. Takes care of those hit sweaty days and adds a little moisture.

[@drayabuckner5847]

you can soak the braiding hair in acv and let it dry before you install the hair to relieve itching and also dandruff

[@drayabuckner5847]

and the smell doesn't linger once its dry

[@KellynnnXOXO]

This is so cute and I love your hair color!😍

[@estefanibeco03]

Love the way it looks on u !! 😻 now I want to try it! For the summer at least

[@KylaLaird]

...this style looks great on you! 😍

[@rabiahn.6340]

Love this look on you!

[@mocha5349]

braids look so great on you!

[@BISHHiRoqk]

Just wondering .. why didn't you use braiding hair to braid your hair why did you use wefted hair ?

[@itzsianatv835]

They are micros and human hair last long

[@jackszmt9876]

It looks soo soo good on you .. And it does look very playfull.. I would like to do the same for the summer.. But I would like to know if it is harder to braid with the human hair .. And will it slip out more easily than the synthetic hair ?

[@valencia_oranges88]

Your hair looks pretty!💕🙂

[@jasminebyrne753]

The background is so cute! You’ve definitely inspired me to go for this look when my hair grows out a bit more!!

[@liveloveGlam]

Loving the new hairstyle!! Looks great :)

[@Thesaudlifestyle]

Your Hair is soo nice!!! did this box braid style damage your hair after?

[@PhloeFanSince2000]

[@maleekaellis1046]

[@ojones7]

[@miamiles7996]

I still love this style

[@5innocencia]

Ur hair is giving me life

[@meditationmama70]

Because..... I don't know why 😂😂😂#storyofmylife

[@andersondiann]

coconut oil makes my hair very soft with my braids but for some reason i can't put it directly on my scalp cuz it makes it itchy after a few dayz, on my braids ill use a regular grease or just cantu leavein

[@mariereeder3635]

LOVE IT! I'm gonna try this.

[@HisaLight2mypath]

It looks so classy when it's shoulder length

[@NurseSnow2U]

It's SO beautiful and so is SHE 😍✨😍✨😍✨

[@KenyahIsrael]

I think your hair is so dope!

[@GratefulTurtle]

I LOVE ITTTT

[@GrapeSodaFanatic]

I loooove thisss... the loose waves are so beach babe and sexy! I've been wearing my hair in braids for a couple of years now to grow out my hair after relaxers messed it up. I've been wearing my braids long, but i'm seriously considering a wavy bob braid style now!! xx

[@saythelees]

+GrapeSodaFanatic oh yes! You should try it!!

[@livmakeup9197]

Loved it girl!

[@nat-oi2fh]

Thinking of getting this style myself 💕

[@shelovesthemso5836]

Jaleesa, I am curious as to why you used wefted hair (those short pieces are called the beards) instead of loose braiding hair. Braiding hair comes in human and synthetic. You don't have to cut the hair off a weft to access it. There is no weft. I hope this helps. And I apologize if you already knew this info.

[@saythelees]

+She Loves Them So it was very short notice and I really needed the ombré effect of the hair I found. Otherwise, I would totally use loose bulk hair 😊

[@honestywhite1785]

This style is perfect I am def trying

[@TheOuiouicherokee]

I love your hair!!

[@guyanesechica]

Your makeup is gorgeous!

[@marqy7]

What kind of hair did you use? I'm trying to get my braids like this!!

[@yvette222]

Check the description box 😊

[@sultrydoll]

I love your braids and the cut you did on them.

[@MsNatualTee202]

The cut & Color Is Very Pretty!~

[@juliebruno7349]

love it.it looks really good. u can rock any hairstyle.

[@jessicarausier6276]

Your face is heaven😍 like an Angelique face 😊😘

[@saythelees]

+Jessica Rausier thank you! And Angelique is literally my middle name 😁

[@jessicarausier6276]

+Jaleesa Moses This explains that 😉😊

[@naturallyjennrose2184]

How often do you wash your hair? You still need to wash your scalp and get all the oil and product off of it. Also I have heard that you should either soak or wash the hair you braid with prior too installing to help prevent the itchy scalp.

[@LizNyk]

You did a great job your hair looks great loving it!💖😍

[@Etceterotic]

Wait...so you use wefted hair for BRAIDS? That's so dope. It looks great. I'd really like to see how you do it.

[@Kieranunez]

Love your hair xx

[@harlingsarah]

Yes finally!!

[@shygirlny1]

Looks so cute !! U giving me ideas now lol

[@sambarosaatl]

It itches because of the chemicals in the hair. Put acv in a spray bottle and spray the hair to break down the chemicals.

[@jodiesamuels3110]

You should try Top Brass for your scalp, the blue one. It's common in Jamaica for haircare :)

[@Lanenawebb]

Jaleesa, you look amazing!!! Can I ask what camera/lens are you using? The quality is insane!!!

[@goddessdejour]

Excellent makeup look! Go for the tutorial.

[@aaliyahs3521]

I love this hair! How did braid this because i want to do this. Does your hair grow with this kind of braids?

[@Danadane314]

Super cute style!

[@victorialopez3207]

[@MsShaynan]

Love your skin!

[@sunsilks]

Hey luv it Could be the Coconit oil making your Scalp Itching... I notice when I put Coconut oil my scalp it itched really bad. I love the look of the options you have with the hair. I would love to try this style with human hair . What other hair would you use or recommend? That is Affordable to get the same look...

[@Daphneamy360]

Rewatched 🥰

[@PepperAnnT]

They're called MICROS. :)

[@val3sha]

You're on to something with this micro braid bob....interesting.

[@blondie211972]

Love it!

[@Mslector]

very pretty 😃 try Peppermint Tea Tree Hair Oil by Eden body works. it will take the itch away. i used it when I had box braids it was the only thing that made it go away. the shampoo works great as well . you can get it from Sally's.

[@FurahaSGreen]

[@queennerin1739]
