Me watching this right after getting my godness braids 👁👄👁
Lol I hope you have a better experience than I did
I’m just about to go get them💀
I literally just got them 😭
me rn😩
Nahhh I wished I watched reviews before doing it 😭😭😭.
The whole point of braids is to not have the hassle of maintenance
Right
Maintenance wasn't the case for me because I had hip length hair as a child. I was always thought braids was beautiful 😍
the one main problem with your braids is that you seem to have more curls than braids in you're hair and plus the brand of the curling hair you used should be considered too..... because some curly hair quickly gets matted than others
I’ll never get this style again but these are things I wish I knew before getting them. I just grabbed the hair the stylist told me to get.
So what type of curls do u recommend
I was thinking that, too many curls. I think it would definitely be easier with less curls, mostly in places where you can see them, almost like accessories
Marilyn Talks dont get to many curls ... the lady that did her hair add more curls than braids .. dont add curl to every braid
Exactly my thought...
Great advice.I’m a hairstylist and the first thing is there is too much loose hair out. only a little bit of loose hair should be added to the braids and it’s not necessary to add it to every braid, because then the style will be hard to maintain because it will mat and tangle.Those are bohemian goddess braids. Goddess braids are more manageable because the loose hair is only at the end. And using freetress water wave hair works pretty good
Thank you!
I did them a couple of months ago and added the hair in between a braid and to the ends, noticed that the ends weren't getting tangled as much but the middle parts were just unbearable
I was thinking the samething
Definitely too much hair. I’m about to try this style next week and per another video I watched, it’s best to use one thin strand towards the end of the braids and I’m thinking of using the hair on every other braid.
From my experience these braids are my favorite! They never get tangled because before I go to bed I put some leave in conditioner and run my finger through it and put it in a braid . I actually have them in right now and I can run my fingers through easily , I feel like the problem with her braids is she has more curls than braids and the person who did your hair maybe should’ve used thin curls but that’s my opinion I have very thin curls so if you guys want these make sure you keep your hair defanged and get more braids then curls 😌
Brie too many curls & synthetic hair was the issue, not the detangling because like I said, I detangled my hair everyday. But This was my first time with the style, You live & you learn. I know for next time. Thanks for the tips!
Oo I got them rn I’m gonna try this lol I got fussed at by my sister for getting them because apparently they are hard to manage and don’t last lol. My braids were like 190☠️
What curly hair did you use?
Hey what kind of hair did you use for your curls Brie?
What curls did you use ?
I’m weak 😂 it look like it’s a head full of curly hair and a few braids
That’s exactly what it was lol
Lmfaooo sis
She gave you like 10 braids and almost all curls omg I would be so mad
Do you think that's why her hair didn't last. Too many curls? How many strands of curls do you recommend using
@@cicislife1147 definitely cuz I've got this hairstyle and the braider did like make 15 curls and I didn't experince any tangling I just made sure I moused and sprayed a little water and I am good hope this helped 🥰💓
She has enough braids but she used the wrong hair for the curls. It’s all based on how you want it to look but you must use the curly human hair.

It's more curls and less braids, like damn.
Next time use human curly hair and not the synthetic. That's why it's napping up like that. TRUST me. I know. I've been there 🙄😩
Thank you. I’ll try it next time
Which type of human curly hair do you advise to get?
BrandNuBrina where did u get your human curly hair from to do the these ?
hi. what kind of human hair would u recommend? i want to be able to get the curly pieces wet & the curls still look good! i know it will definitely be more thank the synthetic hair just not sure what type.
I came in the comment area to say the same thing
I would suggest using human hair as opposed to synthetic for the leave out curls. Also using product (conditioner @ night and foam in morning) braiding into 4 sections is highly recommended. I love mine.
😅😅😅 and imma love mine human hair is correct!
Do you use actual conditioner or leave in conditioner and which one do you use?
Exactly. What is she expecting from synthetic hair??
Was just gonna comment this, using human hair makes a huge difference
@@diamondsparkle9967I got mine down with raw human hair and it still tangled...so yea doesn't matter lol
Glad u did this video cause my daughter wanted them and the hairdresser did not do what she wanted she gave her regular braids my daughter was so upset when she came home and I told her she was lucky cause synthetic hair will matte. I ended up putting flex rods and dipping the hair in hot water and she had different size loose curls which likes. Thank you I just showed her the video
No problem!
Hope y’all didn’t PAY MORE for that specific style tho…that would be my only thing
I cut out my curls and bought new curls and crocheted a few in myself! very easy. I would suggest just getting regular braids and putting them in yourself. once they get matted you can take it out and have a regular braid style!
Good idea, thinking of doing this hairstyle
Me too !
This is such a great idea
I’m going to do this!
bish…. u done changed the game lol
I am going to do that to mine
This is very good advice... I've considered getting this particular style before but hearing to your precautious advice is great!!
thanks. happy I can be a help cause I sure wish someone had told me before getting them.
I think it works best with human wavy hair-kanekelon braids
Just did mines.. looks & feels amazing!! Y’all should try it! 🥰 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🏽
I think it’s fake
@@steviesersei3180 those glasses & that phone.. I think it’s for an infant! 🤣 why are you in here??? 🤷🏽♀️Go find some men to hang & chat with!!
This video is real. Thank you for being honest. You had me rolling on your description of the braids.
Thank you girl for telling the truth ! I will just get my regular box braids because I was wondering how them curly was going to last!
Yesssss you hit this dead onnnnn. I learned this the hard way... My braids was looking all good and then the hair was looking all tangled and matted after about a week and a half..
Soooo glad I ran into this video before I got my hair done. Im going on baecation soon and I want that wake up do my edges and go type of thing💯👏🏼
Gurl you just saved me sooooooo much time! Thank you so much!!
I was nervous for the same reason. I wanted to learn the hard way. I have this style going on two weeks. I have not had a single problem. Running my hair through it, put it up in a style, no tangling, only mousse. My stylist has clutch bundles so I just got really lucky THANKFULLY because someone would have heard from me. I’m sorry you had this experience with the hair style, hopefully you’ll try again with a different quality of hair because the style is stunning on you!
Thank you for making this video. I anticipated the same with curly hair and I'm glad I got the confirmation.
I am looking to do this style for my summer vacation, I will most definitely be using HUMAN CURLY HAIR! Thanks for the heads up.
This video is exactly what I’m going thru right now with this style lmao I have it as a crotchet . You’re 1000% correct when you say you need patience , mouse and time for this style & it’s not get up and go friendly. Thanks for this video ❤️💕
Lmao you’re welcome .
I did this with synthetic hair on my locs. Silk drops for maintenance made a WORLD of difference. Also, you can use fabric softener and water to detangle with your fingers. This style will last you just have to know what to use. I only had to touch up with the drops every 5-7 days along with keeping my scalp nourished.
What is silk drops?
Thank you so much for this! I just saw someone with this style and it is sooooo pretty but I never thought about the free hair and taking care of it. Thanks so much for telling the real side
You’re welcome. I know everyone’s experience with these is different but mine was horrible. I hear human hair works better for the curls
Thank you for your honesty. I was just about to book an appointment and something told me to do a little more research. I am going with the Knotless Box Braids.
Thanks for showing us the REAL! To many time UA-camrs show the good and pretty without updating is on the bad or maintenance
No lies told. I was going through it so I knew I couldn’t have been alone lol.
Well said. So true. It is nice to see real videos like this one.
Thanks sis, you’re absolutely right I totally forgot about how messy curly hair gets
Glad I can help 💓
Finally someone has spoke up. Thanks
Thank you for this video. I was about to install them but I am a low maintenance person so this is clearly not the style for me. You're right whenever I see people with them in their hair looks so luscious but I guess they are really doing a lot to upkeep it.
I was gonna do this cause a girl on my flight had them lookin bussin but I’m literally getting braids so I no longer have to deal with my hair so thank u so much for this. Ignorance ain’t always bliss
I'm no professional but i've loved braiding and experimenting with different hair styles for the 5 years (im 18 and i started braiding my hair at 13). I did bohemian goddess braids and i experimented using normal Xpression extensions. I did a normal box braid 3/4 of the length, once the whole head was braided, I did two massive braids, dipped the ends in boiling water to get nice curls. With the same straight extension pack, I braided small sections, put them in boiling water, left them to dry for an hour and crocheted them into my box braids. It worked a treat and didn't get all matted (i feel like the pre- curled hair is coarser or less smooth than the straight braiding hair so they matte quicker). It looked beautiful, lasted over 2 months and was super low maintenance considering the curly ends etc.
That’s a great idea
THANK YOU!! I was just about to get this tomorrow but I’ll inform my hair dresses to just do regular box braids, cuh ain’t nobody got time for that!!!
Thank you so much! I was going back and forth on this style.
I loved mine! I found adding gel to the loose hair helped with the tangles!
Thank you for this advice. I currently have these braids in myself and having the same issue with it being tangled. I’ve had to cut the ends on some of them as they have become knots. It’s a shame because they are such a nice style but I agree so much maintenance, putting moose in them and Gel just so they detangle is a nightmare. I also work out a lot so when I tie my hair up with a hairband the curls tangle up. I will definitely use some of the comments advice next time and use human hair Curls and see if it makes any difference. This is my favourite braiding hairstyle though so I’ll definitely do it again.
I totally understand it can for sure be a nightmare but I too love this style it’s so pretty. Lmk how the human hair works for you if you try it and what kind you get.
My spirit told me to do some research and thank God I did 😭 God bless you sis x
Thank you. Almost sold myself dreams with this style
I thought she is about to cry😒, such an innocent face❤️... Thank u sis🥰
I absolutely love the honesty of this video.
I appreciate it. I was trying to be as transparent as possible.
Thank you. I'll keep this in mind. I found a lady who said she could do this for me. I was very excited...until I watched your video. I don't have time to maintain this hairstyle. I think I'll go with box braids.
It actually looks good messy 🥰 but thank you for letting me know.. I’m scheduled to get them soon, so I’ll see on the hair type itself.
Swear I was just about to put some in my head💯 so glad I saw this video because you are absolutely right... the style on other ppl be 🥰🥰. We don’t think about the maintenance🤷🏽♀️ thank you for keeping it 💯💯💯💯💯🙏🏽
Just get human hair not synthetic hair
Human hair won’t need maintenance like this.
Yes, I agree!! I got this style and it was cute but high maintenance and a pure mess at times. Great review
Thank u soooo much I was about to get these tomorrow. I will be get regular box braids. Thanks so much
My hair stylist recommended this for my next appointment, when I got my butterfly locs. I saw it and already knew it would be too much up keep and once I get my hair done in a protective style it's on the go. I didn't pay all that money and sat down all those hours to still have to do all this hair maintenance.
Exactly! You get it
I’m glad I watched this two days before I get them done💀
😂😂
I wondered about then napping up like that!! That’s why I decided to check first. Thanks for this
I think human hair and way less curls would make for a better experience. I’m glad I could help
@@KeviahSymone I’ll try that. Thank you☺️
Omg, I should have watched this before booking my hair appointment
I just got them last night and I was already on my way to this result you're having. So when I got back from the salon, I noticed that I had more curls than I had hoped for. Everything jaming together. So I got my sister to help out. She had to select all the flyouts, wet them added hair wax and make them shorter than the length of the braids. Now I didn't mind the length of the individual flyouts. She just trimmed them according to how we felt it would be good and if the fly-out had a rough end which apparently almost all of them did which was causing the entire braids to come together. As soon as she was done the hair felt and looked better.
I went to bed without a bonnet cap and it still looked good the next morning.
I think constant attention is required.
Sorry 💔 about your experience. You should try it again. It's a beautiful style
I’m so happy your sister was able to help you out because my experience was definitely miserable. However I did love the style in the beginning. It’s a beautiful hairstyle
I definitely needed to hear this before I got my teen daughter head like this cuz she been begging for them!! So I’m definitely using human hair for the curly part!! Thank Kee💋💋
Ok for future reference: if you dont wanna spend human hair money, use LESS synthetic curl pieces!! Basically your stylist just made the curls to close and wayyy to abundant! You gotta use the hair sparingly so it cant get stuck together. It will still get like that a little but it wont matte together like that basically the curls will just get a little frizzy
was supposed to do them tomorrow. thank u for this video :)
Ur voice is so satisfying😭❤️‼️
Thank you 😊
Yoooo she got meeeee rolling🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
mine never ever mattes.. i seperate it regularly cut off any loose hairs and use mousse and serum to keep the curls neat
also when you use very very loose curls they drop much easier..
the more friction and the dryer the hair more likely it is to matte.
it isnt.. low maintenence, i agree but the idea that synethic hair equals matteing is kinda misleading.
Thank you so much for making this video. I was already thinking of making it before
Lol thank you ✅I needed you to tell me this is not a get up and go hair style 💯
This style is so gorgeous. I am currently looking up videos on the style and after seeing yours I just made a call to the hair stylist and told her I will just stick with my usual boxed braids. Because like others when I first saw the hairstyle I wondered if it would start looking tacky after a period of time🤔.....I definitely don't have any patience when it comes to knotted hair. I will eventually get the style and just use the human hair everyone is recommending but right now I just don't have the time lol.
Lol thats why I always do crochet hair for stuff like this... The curly hair is always my go to but it always gets old the fastest especially because I don't wrap my hair ever 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Your so gorgeous btw
Thanks so much for sharing the reality with this style👏🏽. You earn a new susbcribe❤️👍🏽
Thank you for this video! Glad I watched it before getting the braid s
I'm about to get them but I'm going to use human curly hair for this reason thank you for this video 🥰 sorry you are going through this its exactly how I felt when I got my faux locs so frustrating
How was. The human hair
I’ve always wonder how the curly hair looks after a while and how to maintain it
Thanks for telling me. I definitely was looking into doing my hair like this.
Facts! Girl you are not lying at all
I get synthetic crochet curly or wavy hair all the time. In addition to tying up at night and using product, you can go through with very small scissors and cut out the fuzzy parts. It will keep your hair looking fresh for longer, but it is time consuming. Not necessarily a get up and go style, but I love it.
I think it still looks good under the circumstances,,but usually when ppl get that length,its going to tangle,braids rub up against each other especially when you lay dwn,you can't really wrap it or tie down
What’s crazy is I thought it was just me because I did them myself and used the braiding hair that I curled myself. It’s nice to know I wasn’t tripping.
No you weren’t. It’s sad cause I thought it was so cute but I don’t think I’ll ever get it again lol
I currently have these braids and I honestly think they looked even better the older the got. Also the hair you use makes a difference. This is a lot of loose hair left out. I love mine and I highly recommend
Definitely was too much hair left out and it was synthetic so yeah. Never again lol
I suggest using flexi rods when you wrap them up
You was suppose to use human hair for the curls not synthetic lol
What kind of human hair
Exactly! I tried this style about 3 times before i figured out you have to use human hair. I bought two affordable curly/wavy bundles from Amazon and for the curly hair part and haven't have no issues!
I have this style in my hair right now and my stylist used 2 bundles of brazilian wet and wavy and cut the wefts off
I’m irritated cuz my hair store was all out of the human so I had to get the freetress go go curl 😢 hopefully it won’t get nappy I hope so fr
Tonyniece Burton try bundles from Amazon next time I got some for like 30.00 a bundle. And the great is so far great
I just so happen to come across your videos and was really shocked at some of your facial features. You remind me so much of myself 😊
🥰
I just took mine out and loved them. I didn’t have any issues with that. I wore my big bonnet at night. I used mousse and oil sheen. Mine were nice and thick too. She also used synthetic hair, the curly hair didn’t start to shed until the day before I took them down.
this is why i just started putting the hair on the ends to make it curly, not worth the maintenance for me. even if it's human hair lmao
I just got this hair style 2 days ago and I got it done at the shop at first I was going get some cheap curly hair but the stylist told me the best hair for this style is human hair in which I had to get its was $23 dollars a pack for the human hair (you can get it wet) and if you want a full look you’ll have to get 2 packs .
I wish I’d known to get human hair but I know next time
What kind of human hair did you get?
What kind of hair did you get?
Monica Robinson most likely crochet synthetic hair
You can get a mixed blend that will work as well. I used Que Milky Way Water Bulk hair. It's a human/synthetic blend. Just as everyone else said. It's all about the hair in addition to how much curls you add.
I just got mine last week and ready to take them out. Man these are so high maintenance. Mine looks just like yours in the video.
I appreciate your honesty and sharing. If I may, before you give up completely I am not sure why quality of curly hair you used but the more expensive human hair makes less tangles. Just a suggestion because it is a very becoming style on you😊
Girl, mine lasted for no more than a month. I ended up cutting ALL of the crochet hair out, and still have the box braids. I’ve never felt so much better when I finally cut them off
I should’ve did that 😂 it was the most annoying style I’ve ever had.
My daughter did the same
I am struggling with mine right now just 2 days old. Maybe i will cut off all the curls. Thanks
Okay but which hair is best to use? Synthetic hair or human curly extension?
@@wendy-leelangson9811 human 100%
I see a lot of ppl say use human hair. And you can but if you are on a budget... Freetress is a good brand to use. Also wrap your hair up at night. Friction from rubbing can Matt it like that. When driving bring your hair to the front also. Use less curly hair and use a moose, conditioner or a detangle spray if it starts to tangle a little. I never have a problem when I add this hair to my real locs. Sometimes I want a boho look and do this to it.
I used freetress hair.. I moussed...everyday, detangling spray, wrapped it up every night. This just wasn’t a good style for me but I plan to try it again with less curls. I feel like there were way too many curls which was why it matted
found this video a month into getting goddess braids. It’s been so irritating trying to maintain them with minimal knowledge going in. I work a really physically demanding job where i have to have my hair pulled back or in a bun most days. i thought this style would look super cute on me but i just don’t have the time to do the daily stuff they require sadly. thank you for letting the girls know before hand! i definitely would have gone for regular box braids again if i had seen this before 😭
So glad I watched this!!! I was planning on doing this hair for my birthday. I might just do some small braids with curls instead
Girl this video had me cracking up! 😂 this was so me the first time i got these damn braids
Marie D I was in shambles lol
@@KeviahSymone thanks for this
I was about to get this done tomorrow. Whew child. Thank God i UA-camd this. I would have had a crappy Christmas vacay
Lol. I was cracking up too. I hardly see videos this real about hairstyles. The style is nice but the maintenance of it is another story.
These are bohemian box braids. Goddess braids are the ones with curls are the ends
Didn’t k know that was a issue. Thx for the heads up. I’d recommend silicon mix conditioner it will have it like butter
It's true, it gets really messy after a few days. I got some off brand fake ass curls for the curly part and it looked good on the first few days. But after a while it was clumping, coming apart, looking dirty af. My stylist recommend "WaterWave" curls. I haven't tried them yet but if I do I'll let y'all know. But once the curls get really bad, just take a sossor and cut them off. And then boom. Perfect amazing box braids. It's like two hairstyles at once. And you won't have to go through the trouble of taking them all out.
I might get them again but in red this time. But if you do get bohemian, wrap them up and don't let them get wet. Also, don't brush it if you got some really bad curls. Get the WaterWave curled. I heard they're better! Hope this helped. ❤️🙂
I think you should give it a try again with human hair or bundles it lasted longer for me. The first time I got it I was in the same crisis as you but than my stylist suggested human hair. And I loved it. Best of luck ❤️
Thank you. I think that’s a great idea. I really did love the look of the style so I will re try with human hair, thank you! 💕
Np I understand your pain mine was nappy like that in 3 days. I got to the point where I cut the hair off the braid to make them look like just regular box braids. I refused to take them down because I paid so much money for them. I hope you do retry them if so give us a review and update.😊 ima new sub from Chicago 🥰
I should use human hair for the braids and the curls? Or just human hair for the curls?
Yolanda Hood just for the curls
I’m glad I do my own hair I would’ve been pissed to go home and it tangles.
Even my short straight bob cut gets tangled. 😂 I really want this to FILL up my head, cause my hair is thin and flat AF. Plus like this it blends better with my natural hair. I want to try it so bad,
I got mine done with ombre black to blonde, they look nice but the spider web started in a few days. I used silicone mix dip then shine jam gel on curly hairs only. Helping it look better from day to day with 4 sections braids n scarf at bedtime, but I want regular box braids again too, It's less maintenance and weight on head. I get headaches with goddess bohemian box braids. You are right they look good at first, they need to make better quality curly hair in stores.
Idk but this still looks nice to me...it adds to the distressed look and looks more natural.
I put mine in 3 hours ago and they’re already acting up!!! I’m going to try applying leave in conditioner to soften the fibre...I’m shook
human hair for the curly parts next time
OH wow thanks for sharing I didn't think of that. You're right that curly hair has to be managed
This is so true! It’s a beautiful hairstyle, but it’s trouble lol. I keep mousse in it! Day and night, helps to manage it better. But, the curly hair is constantly shedding and getting tangled, yes very annoying lol. Mines are only 2 weeks old
As much as I loved this style, idk if I’d get it again lol
How long did your hair last
Thank you for the transparency! I was about to put these in my hair and now this gave me pause. I don't feel like messing with my hair at all. 🤣
Bless you 😂😂
Since everybody gave you advice already I just want to say how pretty you are lol and also if you do get them next time adding a little of your favorite oil on them every night before bed helps too!
Thank you 😊
I'm here just watching, not being rude but I'm laughing. The first time I see the style I loved it, BUT I've worn crochet before loose so I know the struggle! Thanks for letting them know, it's been on my mind and how to get info out. Great job!! ❤❤
I appreciate everyone's response to this video I'm actually about to do my own for the first time 😁 I'm super excited 😊 thank you I definitely know how I need to take care of mine 🫶🏾🫶🏾
I too learned the hard way.. you did good for 3 wks.. I took mine out after 2.. I 🥴🥺.. So now I'm going to try human & see if it makes a difference as everyone says..
I think it looks great. You want it to look from natural
Thank you so much for posting this! I just recently started contemplating getting the style. I am now having serious doubts. One of the biggest things I hate, You mentioned very early on in this video, curly tangled hair. I like to get a good wear out of my protective styles and I cannot handle having detectives out after 3 weeks and it looking like that.
No reason to doubt. You should only get loose curls and it should be human hair, and don't put curls in every braid. Before you go to bed add some mousse and leave-in conditioner then put your hair in a braid.
Thank you for the advice, I was just about to do it too but was wondering if it will not be matted after a few days, I need a wake up a go style as you called it 😂🤭
Ive gotten goddess box braids twice and never had this problem. IO think its the way your braider installed them . I had mine for two months
