Was skeptical I could do this but Corona virus gave me no choice. The braid down and sew in went rather quickly.The bobby pin trick saved so much time. My hair is straight and synthetic so the invisible knot wasn't working. I took pre-streched braiding hair and "straightened" it with large rollers and hot water to get the krinkles out. It blends perfectly now! No leave out = no heat damage!! I am so proud of my $25 dollar sew in. Chicks on the street in NYC asking me where the secret salon is! Thanks Sis

girl you forgot to mention how difficult this is!...its 5 am and Ive been busy with this since midnight. I did everything myself...even the cornrows! They looked horrid lol but Im so proud of myself, plus no-one is gonna see them anyway. Im gonna take a break now bc my back is sore and the slippage is getting me frustrated. But Ive almost finished the right hand side of my knotless crochet and its looking pretty good...hopefully it'll be laid when I take my head scarf off in a few hours. Thank you so much!! You are a life saver

i love the ideas of the crochet and weave! I wouldn't have thought of doing that so thanks for sharing. The braid size is definitely not for everyone. Your hair is on the thin side and relaxed so you don't get bulk. Someone with thicker and/or natural hair wouldn't benefit from the size of those braids especially as their hair gets longer. eta: seriously, I'm so happy i saw this vid... i needed an alternative to straightening my leave out...

By far, your videos are the best in my opinion because even though you chemically alter your hair (i.e. relaxer) you are not overtly concerned with bone straightness. Many of the other videos, the ladies want bone straight hair, and this includes the edges. There is a lot of pulling, twisting and using of gel used to straighten the edges. Your processed hair still looks very natural and there is nothing wrong nor unattractive with slightly fuzzy edges. I too trying to grow my own hair, and the protective style I use is: 1. corn rows of my own hair; 2. wearing high quality, light weight wigs; 3). never ignoring my own hair. I wash it with non-sulfate shampoos, and deep condition no less that 3 times a month; 4). regular hair trimming, to remove any split ends. Split ends are the fast way to impede your hair growth and facility breakage before one can appreciate any length via new growth; and last but not least, moisturizing our hair is important, and hair "grease" is not moisturizing. I have discovered moisturize hair stops split ends, and aids in growth retention and the number one ingredient for retaining moisture is GLYCERIN. If your shampoo has alcohol, thru it out. Alcohol drys our hair so fast and dry African American hair will dry & split from the alcohol. Make sure you are moisturizing with glycerin first and foremost and removal of split ends.

I saw this video a short time after it was released. Recently, someone installed my top tracks with glue, irritating my scalp, I took them out and had to figure out how to fix that part. I've redone the braids and run the middle, adjoining one down the through the back wefts. Now, I'm going to rest, then install the hair from the weft. My hair is in a bob and is only 8" long. I hope this works. If, not, I'll buy linger hair and trim it after it's installed. Thanks again for showing this method of completion of a middle part sew-in.

I want to use this method but I am struggling because I want to do a two part sew in with no leave out and I can't figure out a braid pattern. Any suggestions?
@SeunOkimi7 жыл бұрын
I actually figured out a way to turn this into a side part. I didn't film it because it was a very quick thing I did one morning when getting ready, but basically i flipped the crochet part over and crocheted on top of the weft, so one side was the underside of the original crochet, and the other was newly crocheted onto the weft. Sorry, its hard to explain without seeing it. It was kinda complicated and may not work well for you. BUT, to actually answer your question... try doing more braids going straight back to crochet onto, either three or four, instead of two. Pretty soon I will have a tutorial up of me crocheting all of my hair, and in it I have multiple parts. The braiding pattern is different, but it may help you see what I mean by using additional braids going straight back to create multiple parts.
