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

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!

You are so welcome!

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.

[@oneiluvkey]

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.

[@drsiza]

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

[@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 ❤️🙏

[@yt-dz1cu]

I used virgin olive oil mixed with water in a spray bottle, no build up and looks luminous

[@typ2456]

Omg thank you I needed this🥰 I’ve had braids in for almost 2 months now and I’ve been not only trying to figure out how to wash but maintain them🥺I watched both ur videos on them and it helped a ton!

[@stephanied4863]

Your hair grew a lot. I'm impressed by how you maintained them. They look good!

[@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!

[@a1j818]

Thank you so much! I am using this on my daughter's braids. She hates when I re-braid the front part of her hair. This is much easier to do, takes so much less time, and looks fantastic! Thanks again!

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!

[@margareta.6506]

So good! My hairline cant handle that type of manipulation but the tips were great! Now if only I could get my hair braider to make my parts as even as yours! Lol

in this video
