In my experience don’t use mousse. It makes it dry, crunchy, and causes it to tangle easily. I’ve had the best results with leave-in conditioner type products.

[@NiaraAlexis]

I think it depends on what type of mousse you’re using. The one I use doesn’t make the hair hard at all

[@amelthecreator]

i’ve heard from different people (that used synthetic nd human hair for the curls) that both human + synthetic tangle up either way unless you take good care of em.

[@NiaraAlexis]

Both will tangle. With synthetic I wouldn’t know what to do though. Light detangling with human hair every other day or so works for me

[@TRenaE320]

synthetic you don’t brush it just separate it with your fingers and some moose or wig spray.

[@ummzanayah1]

They both tangle the same I've had both, actually a good brand synthetic for me was best I braided at night and mouse or stay in the am only difference is the price lol

[@Coolcatz.]

@@ummzanayah1what brand was the synthetic?

[@MyKeturah]

My boho braids always last. I will say the first time i had them it was minimal to no shedding. Second time, it was so much shedding (same braider). I think this time when i get them (new braider) I will ask for their advice on how to have minimal shedding cus it may be something they can do on their end. What worked for me as far as my hair not matting up was using water, mousse to style my hair for the day and washing my hair when needed. I also detangled and braided my braids into two braids each night. I love boho braids. So many cute styles. The upkeep is worth it. Updated to say my braids were synthetic, the curl add in is always human and it lasted about 2 months each time I had them

[@renapoole7742]

Girl the person that breeds her own hair and is trying to build a little clientele I really appreciate you with this. Thank you.. I’m getting ready to go to the Philippines. I want a new book, but this definitely helps for me to make a decision if I wanted to put those extra pieces or not thank you so so much😊

[@teeamar]

I get what you're saying but most hairstyles really require some kind of maintenance when using hair extensions synthetic & human hair. For the most part some conditioner & water in a water bottle , some mouse & finger comb the braids and your good

[@NiaraAlexis]

Agreed some maintenance is needed with any hairstyle but some styles require more maintenance than others. I think ppl are getting these braids expecting less maintenance than what they are ❤️

[@sashanayjackson318]

Even with human hair, it's an absolute pain I've had them for two weeks and I am so over it. I've spent 2 (2-3 hours) sessions detangling the pieces and putting leaves in, mouse and curl cream and the next day hair is still frizzy. In the morning straight out of my house, my hair is great by the time I get to work my hair is frizzy. My last hope is to use gel on the pieces. It's too much work, especially if you aren't trying to do your hair. I do everything to protect my hair at night and still frizzs.

[@NiaraAlexis]

It does require some maintenance but overall doesn’t give me too many problems

[@StarStarStar059]

Just use leave in ! I find if I use too much product they matte more

[@simaobanina464]

I got goodness braids but only 1 pack because I normally wear crochet synthetic curly hair and it gets matted so bad and I know how it’s to wake up every morning and add muse just to separate so with experience the best is not to add that much hair

[@duchessofautumn]

I love wearing boho braids it's easy to style and manage.

[@monti42]

The only problem I have with some human hair is that it looks stringy with no curls or waves…boho braids look gorgeous with a little body to it…now synthetic hair can be managed but it takes a little more effort and the right products..twist or braid the hair at night, use Hawaiian silky conditioner, and you’re good to go! Freetress Beach curl is a great synthetic brand, you can go swimming and snorkeling for hours and your hair will still look amazing! Don’t brush synthetic hair, just use your fingers!

[@NiaraAlexis]

Find human hair that has a curl to it. I never get straight hair and my human hair always maintains a curl

[@monti42]

@@NiaraAlexisit looks a bit stringy in this video…no shade but that’s what I mostly see when it comes to human hair.

[@NiaraAlexis]

😂😂😂😂 ok call me out then! Yes it was a bit stringy here you just have to find the right hair. I have since then though & the hair I use now it looks so much better and if I feel it’s loosing its curl I just add a little water & mousse

[@terrelberry2592]

Not snorkeling 🤭 good info

[@0tismadaline]

Well said dear,great sharing sweetheart 👏 they need that education from the hairstylist

[@ihaveheardHim]

I don't mind doing maintenance, i can do it daily because i like to look pretty for the day. But the salon in ny neighborhood doesn't have human hair and im not sure if i want to add the extra expense of buying additional human hair

[@brandycollie4313]

Loooove your comment "I like to look pretty everyday "❤

[@Lynae_travels]

Great tips. Thanks!

[@NiaraAlexis]

Glad it was helpful!

[@wonderfully_made423]

I’m wondering is hair brand matters because I’ve had my braids for a few weeks and the hair is still super soft and I’ve had minimal tangling. I also was told not to put mousse on it & I haven’t.

[@VandyVanity]

I tell clients human hair is just like the hair on your head. The more product the more it weighs down and get tangled. It reverts when wet and dry. And with more flyaways the more tangles. And keep your hands out of it.

[@NiaraAlexis]

Agreed!

[@terrelberry2592]

So true this style should come with a manual

[@quorriebeautiful6937]

Mine never matted for 7 months, I had more issues with human hair. I think it depends on the hair you get and any hairstyle needs maintenance

[@Ggswjn]

What synthetic brand do you recommend?

[@shamsa971]

How did you maintain this?

My hair mated a little after gym I sweat a lot but once I put the det angler it was fine. Any recommendations for how to wear during gym to prevent that if possible

[@shantimontana8095]

Put it in 4 (or so) braids.

[@ExtreemeIndiaJOlene]

I dint mind the synthetic hair because im never leaving braids in my hair for a month. 😂My head not tolerating that like your heads do.

[@brittnyy113]

My problem with my boho knotless was the shedding! The human hair bundles I mean.... anyone else had that issue???

[@NiaraAlexis]

Yes I had that problem too. You need to make sure the human hair is braided down enough. Once I got a longer length & braided it down more I didn't have that problem anymore

[@LPzzxz]

Anyone used synthetic spetra hair/ xpression brand for this style?

[@adrenna1973]

I crochet the hair in. I don't much in. When it gets old i take it out.

[@NiaraAlexis]

That’s a good idea

[@createdtoworship2552]

I sew in only human weave hair in back, put synthetic in top and on sides and crochet a few strands of human hair on sides. This way I can totally separate and comb my weave hair in back, let synthetic flow from top middle and no tangles.

[@adesa1]

What brush and products do you use?

[@NiaraAlexis]

Check my Amazon store front for product recs

[@yabseramichael3764]

hey i need help cus my hair got matted up the second day and i didnt know i should of used human hair instead of synthetic hair. what should i do ??

[@NiaraAlexis]

Take the synthetic hair out

[@yummymommy2275]

There is no solution they will mat and tangle now matter what . Btw small pieces lose the curl pattern fast.

[@lisabillingsley3380]

What brand of hair? I get confused when I see “100% human” then $49.99? Or Milky Way Que “mastermix” “human”

[@NiaraAlexis]

No specific brand! I bought mine from amazon

[@KinasWorld73]

I’m a braider and you right but I have told people what to do to maintain and some just don’t do what they are supposed to sometimes and want you to work a miracle 😐

So I get synthetic curls that specifically don't tangle. Now I do braid my braids and then put my bonnet on to help them not tangle as much. But that's just been my experience.
