Natural Looking***Genie Locs/Yarn braids, Last Protective Style for 6 Month Challenge

Some things you don't see in the video, I dip my ends in hot water, and the braids with the beads are tied in a knot at the ends to secure beads in place. Natural Looking locs with a warm brown color

[@KamandaHickey]

I have done fake locks but a totally different way, those are really cute too and it fits you very well, good job

[@p31diva]

Good job! You are the only other person I have seen who adds hair from the both the other strands...glad to know I am not alone! Just finished my yarn braid install about and hour ago.

[@veronicaladson3892]

I've been doing yarn Braids for years they seem to be more healthy for your hair and it grows faster with yarn than with synthetic hair but you an also use a stove starter and cut more at once but if you let it burn enough you can pull it apart and do a palm roll and you won't need scissors but you did a really good job it looks really nice

[@faithogubuike1246]

[@MissLoe8908]

LOL @ the end of the video. But i feel like that too after I spend forever braiding my hair. I've been putting off starting on my yarn braids but I'm going to start preparing my yarn tonight. :)

[@G1rellejones]

[@nakeasimone13]

Gurl you about to make me go put some yarn braids in my hair after I said to myself that I would never attempt to put them in cause they look so time to consuming! Am about to watch your other video on prepping the yarn. Lol.

[@ichoose2bhappy]

how do you maintain your hair when you have braids? I always shampoo when I have regular braids but, I've never had yarn braids is it the same? thanks the size of your braids are perfect.

[@ladywithabrain12]

u have really pretty beautiful youthful skin, how d u take care of it?

[@erin_inthecity]

I'm getting yarn braids this weekend so this video definitely was very informative as far as prepping my hair. My hair is about 1 & 1/2 - 2 inches long so i'm worried about that. What advice do you have

[@ConnectedToMeNow]

I like You do a flat twist for Your edges, Smart:-), Looks Good!

[@Corazanaoro]

Very interesting, have never seen this b4.

[@shatarranikkole1850]

You braid hella fast! :-D

[@daddialthy]

@KinkyStyles1980 oh ok, thanks a lot!

[@skyydence]

lol your funny ! nice

[@GoddessTy83]

How many yarn packs did u end up using? Great Video, easy to follow, thanks!

[@e.harris4002]

how do you do the bead thing with the yarn braids? so cute!

[@noelianino]

im gonna get this next week.. HELP! i have curly hair and short i would like to know how long you natural have to be and how lont would this last in a really hot weather?

[@Msslovelee]

Im hoping you live in Chicago!

[@nkreseknowledge]

Did you leave them in for 6 months?? If not, how long??

[@PinkBlissKissesMwuah]

Thank you sooo much help I want mine at least 22-24 inches about how many bundles of yarn do you think I'll need in all? I have two of the red heart smaller bundles and by the way my head isn't small but not really big lol in between.

[@bahiya26]

Instead of yarn....why don't u use synthetic marley hair? It feels alot like human hair and it last forever. Cute style though :)

[@MsDiamondprincess881]

How long did this take? I love the size

[@shalyoun]

I think that you are so beautiful.

[@engratiabanks9033]

uou are so much help. Thank you

[@NPD333]

hopefully, if i watch this long enough, i'll know how to do it.

[@daddialthy]

How much did the yarn cost?

[@CLASSYBABII94]

How do they last

[@satekelly]

I noticed most ppl in KZbin braid the yarn in with there hair as you did then they wrap yarn around the braid to create "the dread look" is there a reason why you didn't?! I thought maybe you didn't because it's easier to moisturize your own hair the way you did it..

[@MsBanks-bo1tl]

[@erican8338]

She did yarn BRAIDS despite her title..these are not faux locs or yarn dreads...:)

[@sancerea01]

nice.

[@YourMom-jq1pr]

She's so beautiful and bright. It's mad annoying lol
