WATCH ME DO MERMAID/ BOHO BRAIDS HAIRSTYLE FOR THE FIRST TIME

[@Moonminds.studio]

“I’m someone who’s never really had a full head of hair” I FELT this too hard😭

[@kaekapita]

this is all i got!!!😭

[@cierral1170]

Same! I'm still struggling to grow the little edges I have. My dermatologist said it was Alopecia so hopefully next time I see her, she can give me more treatment for it

[@Moonminds.studio]

it's the worst! My hairline receded so badly I thought my forehead was just getting bigger 😭I hope your derm helps you out, castor oil and flat twisting the front + edges worked really well for me, I've been forgetting to do it recently so they're falling out again🤦🏾‍♀ @@cierral1170

[@cressapellom4205]

That's actually sad

[@ukcurlygrl1]

I'm glad you did it with expressions hair ain't got the cash for human hair!! It can be done and looks fab.

[@ToyaDeez]

They came out really pretty, well done

[@kaekapita]

Thank you, I really tried with this one!😅

[@Jenastar]

This was great to watch! You have the exact same hair length and texture as me and im gonna start this style on my head tonight! Wish me luck :)

[@arianasymone]

how did it go?

[@Naomi-zj2yf]

A cute hairstyle, defiantly going to try this. I can relate to your hairline. Ponytails can be deadly 😅

[@ariannahawkins5945]

The orginator also flat ironed the hair so that way you get rid of the texture, so it doesn't tangle as much.🤗

[@kaekapita]

yes, I decided to blow dry it out instead!

[@olugboyeopeyemi2428]

The originator?? Pick and drops is a hairstyle that has existed for YEARS in Africa so who is this "originator" you speak of🤨?

[@msjuicycouture22]

Originator? I did this style over 25yrs ago 😂... She was a baby then lol... Style been out too long to call that woman the creator of it. Ijs

[@ImaCrazyRobot]

⁠@@olugboyeopeyemi2428her name is analia she basically came up with a technique for synthetic hair too achieve a boho godess look and she calls them mermaid braids. She acknowledges tree braiding as well as pick and drops

[@meredithgrey777]

How long does this last? Does it tangle?

[@madgamer44x]

It looks really lovely, you did an excellent job 😊

[@kaekapita]

Thank you!😋

[@globisdead]

I recommend putting some Jamaican castor oil with a few drops of rosemary oil. Apply it on your edges twice a week. Scalp massages might also help

[@natz9093]

Amazing, i actually feel inspired to do this style. And your right cost of living, i cannot be buying human hair. Thanks for sharing❤.

[@kaekapita]

yes, this style is cost efficient and cute !! 💖✨

[@luckywaiters8982]

Tip: dip the hair in extremely hot water before you braid it so it can be flowy

[@lolaligirl2027]

Served again. You're really pretty

[@kaekapita]

Miss ma'am, you're really gassing me up rn. Thank you so much 🥰🤍

[@quinishaharley]

Pro tip if you trim your ends before you get braids, it will help your hair grow better.

[@kaekapita]

Best thing i did for my dead ends was this. Thank you💕

[@victoria126]

we have the same hairline! my hair has been like this since I was born :/

[@kaekapita]

Girllll having a thin hairline is no joke!! I'm currently using a bunch of things to help it grow and i've seen an improvement. i'll do a video on this because it's helped me grow somewhat of my hair back 💘

[@onjaneaforde3045]

But i liked how you looked in the beginning of the video 🥺 However you did a wonderful job with the braids too

[@kaekapita]

Thank you 😭💘

[@heliosthefirst1397]

Does blow drying it before you curl actually make a difference

[@kaekapita]

Yes! it smoothes out the kinks and makes it really bouncy

[@ky_c_c]

Wow looks amazing!!! 💗💗Can you link the exact hair you used or comment the exact name??

[@kaekapita]

Thanks lovely! I used xpressions in colour 1B 🤍

[@rachaelo3882]

​@@kaekapitais this expression lagos braid or pre stretched...they are a few different expressions braid packets

[@complexityofagirl]

​@@rachaelo3882it says the one in the 3 pack I think that's the pre-stretched one.

[@kayshaussin8105]

What are the maintenance???

[@kaekapita]

As i used expressions the hair looked good for around 2-3 weeks. But you can always re curl the hair in hot water if it starts to frizz 💕

[@nissancar122]

What hair did you use

[@MsSimixx]

Did you prep the hair like she advised?

[@PassportBrosAndBlondeManWeaves]

I think you should give yourself a full year and just wear braids or maybe some sort of crochet style. Stay away from anything where you have to manipulate your hair just leave it completely alone I’m telling you it will do wonders because my hair grew so much when I left it alone for a year or so, as soon as I went back to doing ponytails and everything else that’s when my hair started to break off again because I was doing it on a consistent basis. I have faith that your hair will grow healthy. Also look into hair oils that’s for rejuvenating the hair follicles.

[@anusther8542]

From TikTok

[@shellyanne7]

Hey Hun, you did a great job, I like how you added the hair, your way looks easier. They look great. New subscriber ❤, I do have a channel also, pass by and show some love Sis ❤❤

[@In2uCon]

What brand of hair did you use??

[@yolandadarnte]

Oh my God love your accent you sound like English or british accent right ?❤

[@itsppi]

yeah i think so

[@darlianembanzu7961]

Don’t you dip your real hair in hot water too because the braid starts so high?

[@kaekapita]

My real hair is short and because of how I braided up the hair (into 4 sections) it will only curl the braided part

[@Heevvyy]

What length of hair did you use ?

[@tashamoore605]

❤❤❤

[@mzsexidreadz]

❤

[@shamirmoodie7141]

Where are you from live?

[@melody6725]

great work but i think you may need to take a break on braids. it could be too much tension on your hairline.

[@CostalLivingDoll]

Tbh cut it all off start again and wear a full wig you be good in two months castor oil is a miracle worker .

[@kaekapita]

I've cut my hair off before to do exactly that, if i don't see progress then I'll cut it very short

[@vanessatrotter69]

[@bren7067]

So, microbraids?

[@kenyadyer310]

I've been dying to try this since I saw it on tik tok. Has it lasted so far- or does it get tangled a lot? I don't want to spend all that time braiding if I can't make it last more than a week 🥲
