    I'm here because I'm a 21 year old woman and my mama said it's time for me to start braiding my own hair because apparently I have to grow up...

    Thank you for this video! I am a mother of mixed kids & I refuse to be uneducated on their hair... I’ve been braiding for a few months but this video is the only one I’ve found that’s showed me how to hold my fingers right while doing it! I can now make the braids more clean cut & crisp! THANK YOU AGAIN!!!!!

    I like how you pause to show how you use your fingers to grab more hair, but the hair itself is blocking the visual. But the best tutorial I've seen so far.

      Sorry guys, I haven’t learned. I gave up after a few attempts, I was trying to do my own hair so I guess that made it harder since I couldn’t see! For others that want to learn I recommend practicing on someone else, like a sister, brother, mom or grandma!

    Omg.. thank you for this video. You made it make sense. You start with three sections but you are only adding hair from the left and right sides as you proceed with braid. This is what has stumped me forever as I’ve always been trying to add hair from three sections and my braids were a mess. Thank you so much! 😊

    @Soeia.ElliotClark 4 роки тому

    Is there ever a time the hair has to be detangled/moisturized, and then dried as you go, like, by section? Or is better braiding it dry after you've detangled, moisturized, and dried the entire head of hair?
    Not talking about washing, but if there ever needs to be a focus on moisturize before someone has braids in for a while, to prevent breakage?

      @hairbyoj8373  5 років тому

      Nope that just depends on how tight you’re braiding or the texture of the person’s hair but you could use things like gel for a sleek look although I prefer not to

    This reminds me of all the times many years ago sitting still while my mom braided my hair. She still does its occassionally but its much harder on her hands 😔 (dont let the profile pic fool you, my hair is not short anymore and its pretty much exactly like the woman in this videos hair!)
