The takedown!😣😝
nolakiss yes yes and yes!!! I totally forgot to add that!!! That's a good one.
Had braids, took em out, and immediately hopped in shower to wash my hair...15 min later I HAD to big chop. Matted mess!
Right, I went straight to the shower and had to do a big chop because of the matting. Anyways 7months later I do MY OWN braids....
Nolakiss OMG YES. THIS IS WHY WHEN MY MOM DOES MY HAIR I ALWAYS GET SCARED TO GET A CREATIVE HAIR STYLE, JUST BECAUSE OF THE TAKEDOWN.
And my mom does really skinny braids when she gives my Fulani braids and other styles😫
Nolakiss YES.
She said ain't no sleep and I really felt that 😂
Shelby Perez sameeee
I got braids today and watched this video to see what she says😭
Me too I’m feeling that pain rn, I just got them yesterday
I just braided my hair yesterday and i couldnt sleep i still have pain how long this pain last 😭😭😭
The pain last two or one day guys
My favorite ones:
"Aint no sleep"
"I shouldn't have to take no Aleve"
Afroniquelybeautiful c I just braided my hair yesterday and i couldnt sleep i still have pain how long this pain last 😭😭😭
Jump Girl man sorry for being SO late but I think u already found out. But if not 3-4 days I’m a very late super hero
Neck pain because of the heaviness, box braids don't play
Pearll Light its the same amount of hair b4 u even got the braids
FR THOO
New Phone not if you put extensions
Pearll Light andddddd how tight it is
@@xxldnxo6890 yo mama
Gurl, u so craaaazy. The itchiness of the braids on the nape of your neck... Child plz. I also miss my hair when they r n braids. When I take them out, my hair is singing, "Pharaoh, Pharaoh, let my tresses go."
Lol
Sherell Bains LMAO Pharaoh. Girl u got me hollering
hahaaa....lol
😂
Why do they itch at the nape so much?
Girllllll, we don't have time to soak this braiding hair. 9 times out of 10 if the appointment's planned late, hair's bought an hour in advance before!😂😂😂
The Codeine Cowgirl that's what I was trying to tell people girl! But they wasn't listening in my itching video I posted recently smh
I have a question though. Is there a way to stop the itchiness after you get them done? Like some sort of magical spray or something? I have a hair appointment in a couple hours and totally forgot to soak the hair 🤦🏾♀️
@@AngieSacree I'm late but they have oils u can put on your scalp after u get them done cuz sissss that itch be the devil☹☹.
@@AngieSacree I figured out I was itching cuz I was allergic to the hair. Anywhere it touched was itching like crazy! For the scalp itching use blistering and go up and down the parts with a soaked cotton swab. Also use some tea tree oil.
Facts
Your makeup is so pretty it compliments your skin tone
Once I worked at this child care facility in a city that has a higher population of African American kids than Caucasian kids and when I would play with the little girls they always asked to braid my hair, and I said yes. I didn’t realize they were doing the really tight braids, and I’ve never got them done before. It hurt so bad I started crying 😂 I don’t know how girls who get tight braids are so strong! They look super pretty, though!
My mom works at a school and she says that alot of kids had cornrows but took them off because of the pain
Terri g 😂
Terri g 🤣🤣
Those were children braiding your hair , not a professional that’s why
@@user-vu8zy1pu3v I didnt know only children braid tight...
I got braids professionally done a couple years ago and it was horrible. They were too long, too tight and it took forever for her to finish. I learned how to do them myself and I now I love them!!
Yep I do my own braids for this exact reason. They don't last as long but my edges are safe.
Never get braids professionally done. These stylists are obsessed with promoting their services on Instagram more than the health of your hair
You should tell the professional don't do it too tight.
I feel u with the toilet issue one time I was in a salon toilet just done my hair so I leaned my hair back I flushed the toilet and my braids just wanted an adventure through the drain
Leela Jr lol I’m rollin😂😂
Aww x)
💀
ikr
BRUHH
When I had boxbraids, I used to hit all my friends and everyone who came close to me accidentally 😂
Emma Vrijburg omg everybody gets mad at me when i hit them 😭.. it’s not my fault !
Lmao🤣😂
LMAO SAMEE
same i thought it was only mee
Same here 😂😂😂 .... but I do it purposely like boo don’t come near me when I got my hair freshly done😂😂😂🤣✨
When you take em out, your head floats a little bit after lol
😂😂
Tht is too much.
Me with any style that’s not my hair 💀💀
@Emihle Mhlongo I feel ya , it would get better soon trust , try pinning it up ever now and then to reduce weight on your neck
This is the funniest video I’ve watched in a long time. EVERYTHING in this video is accurate.
Chloé-Ana Braidy lmaooooo I really want braids and I’m over here dying also second guessing braids 🤣🤣🤣
Chloé-Ana Braidy - Yes, extremely funny. The itch is unbelievable! I kept a spray bottle filled wth witch hazel just to get relief so I could sleep.
Bruhhh😂
LOL She said, "I was not purpurred"
That feeling yourself is real. I just got my braids done today and when I came home I was in the mirror like" I'm really feeling myself" like I'm feeling my blackness." Lol. I love it!
I'm hollerin 😂😂😂' b/c this is so true!!..Its like, I'm in pain, can't sleep, head itching Buuuut I'm cute tho and you can't tell me 👏NO👏THING!!
Christina Lockett I was about to comment but you said it all loool
PERIOD SIS!!!
Got braids for the first time today ad they are so tight and i can already see i aint sleeping tonight but they look so good and its been years since i looked at my self and was 100% like i look soooo cute
I’m sorry you’re suffering, but I swear that’s the prettiest braid design I’ve ever seen. Like there are a lot of gorgeous, intricate, artful designs, but in terms of just simple feminine prettiness, this is it. Love it. And I love how there are different sizes (but not like when a bad braider doesn’t know how to keep them uniform). Good job to your stylist.
They don't tell you that your hair line can vanish without a trace. Stephen King could write a book about how your hair line can vanish like a ghost never to return. 😂😂
Wait, wut???
Just got my braids done yesterday I had no sleep yesterday or tomorrow 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Skyee Fam you just have to take Tylenol the first couple days until your head gets used to
Right their so tight and heavy 😭😭 but 2 week it gets easier to sleep trust me, I have braids on right now lol
Jacee Weaver just got it today and my neck still asf
Is it normal to feel some stretching? I don’t have a headache but I feel te tightness and I’m not sire if it’s okay...
man said tomorrow hahah
Getting the braid hair stuck in my jewelry and being tangled in my earrings. Getting hit in the eye. Not being able to put a shirt on because my hair was so big.
"U can't tell me a thing I look good"
Yasssss PERIOD!!!!
Im latina and have gotten braids a few times already and I thought the itch, the no sleep, the weight were all because my hair is a different texture, bit now I c its for everyone. I always saw black people with looong ass braids and was like whoa these girls are amazing! I looove black hairstyles and appreciate them but they do hurt.
I love the way she talks with those dramatic pauses XD
"No. It's too late. They already in my head"
I love her omg 😂😂😂
I am going through it right now, night 3 and I have turned my tears to laughter with this video. This braid thing is gonna have to be a once in a lifetime experience is how I am feeling
They looked so good on u. 2wks was good, but I would have tried at least 3, only 2get my money's worth.
TaB BlAcK i got them yesterday and they're nice but so annoying already and my mom would kill me if I removed them so I'll remove them after 3weeks oof
Day Dream factssss
3 WEEKS. I wear them shits for 2-3 MONTHS.
Dolly BA TWO MONTHS ?? girl lemonade braids would nevaaaa
@@runsprints4life767 hell yea
Whole video got me hollerin, the suffering we go through for added beauty n protective styles. It ain't for the weak.
Oh and thank you for the PROPER shout outs you do, unlike others (showing it for 1sec. *sipping my tea* )
Lord yes!! I had my hair braided up into a bun and girlllllll went to my sons graduation and I couldn't even enjoy his graduation because my freaking scalp was in so much pain!!!! NEVER AGAIN!!!
Girl! You are a freaking TRIP! You had me dying laughing SEVERAL times throughout the video!
I just got some box braids and you’re so right no sleep last night. I did however apply moist heat, leave in conditioner and gently massaged my scalp and it helped a great deal ...
Thank you for this. Ive been thinking on braids to leave my hair alone, but the process is a struggle. Love your eyeshadow!
You are so pretty omg. Your makeup, melanin, and hair are poppin.
Yesss I started dancing too when I heard Exclusive! It was my jam for a good minute! Man do I miss Day26 😩 😩
yehet ARMY
You won't be able to take a comfortable shower with long behind braids 😭 They always in my way D: even if I pin it up a lil strand always falls out lol
Listen to your sister, she knows what she’s talking about!!! We Salute You!!!!!
Love this Chica, she’s real, honest, and I highly respect her argument!!!!!
You're so right. I used to get them all the time but the headache you endure and how heavy they feel. I love the change up though 😍😍😍
2:17 "Is on my lash" Im dead 💀💀💀💀
This was great! I normally get box braids and I've used all kinds of hair. I think that the weight of the braids is dependent on the hair used. I use Xpressions and that isn't heavy (it may not be heavy to me cuz I have a big head and my neck is probably used to it now) but one day I wanted a specific colour that they didn't have so I ordered it from China and it said it was 80 grams a pack. It looked a lot smaller from what I normally used and came in 10 packs an order total so I got two just in case. I ended up using 18 packs out of the 20 in total (this equates to about 5ish packs of regular braiding hair) and those braids were wayyyyyyyyyy too heavy on my head. Not all braiding hair shows the weight of the hair on the pack but I would suggest to check the weight before getting braids in again. They look AMAZING on you! :)
OMG! You are high-larious, Girl! Love it! You look cute! I’m getting some braids in a few weeks. I’m excited mostly because I won’t have to deal with my hair for a few weeks. Which is the best part about braids. I want to start doing them myself though. Save the coin, save my world!!
Lord have mercy... You had me crying!!!! Tell the truth and shame the devil!! Great refreshing video!
You are funny! I have taken out braids the next day because they were too tight...got my scalp and face all drawn up... can't be good. I now stress do not braid tight, do not try to catch my edges and baby hairs...
J F “got my face all drawn up” lolllllllllllllll 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. I can’t 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣!
I had braids for like a month, and I'm DEFINITELY getting them again although I have to go through all this trouble :D Love your vids btw
Lol I so love your personality!!! I’m watching this after my first attempt at braids this summer. I didn’t last long (3 weeks). I’m hardheaded and wanna give my natural hair a break, so I’m doing it again this weekend
This is truly helpful and hilarious! I’m considering getting braids this summer but now I’m hesitant. Thanks for sharing 💜
LOL, Janae you are so extra LOL
😂😂😂... I used to get braids all the time. Girllllll I don't miss those days. They cute but I'm cool lol!
Tylin Hill same 😩
did they take yo hair thats why u dont miss em
When I was young it was fake braids
I keep braids for a week an a half lol I can’t
I'm glad I came across your video. It lead me to learn how to clean the braiding hair first. I was going to put braids in today, but I can wait a few more days.
That song at the beginning! When it first cams out I couldn’t stop playing it. “Don’t wanna play no games I want you exclusive”.
Love the video though! Thanks for the advice!
The heaviness of braids depends on the braid. The first time I got box braids , I use some brand I bought from Amazon. This second time I got ez hair by spectre. And these braids are super light. It feels like the weight of my own hair.
Also use a bonnet to keep them out of the way! Lol
Girl, you are funny and i loved this video, you got yourself a new subscriber, you have an amazing personality!
Omggg! 😂💓😂 I love YOUR energy!😭🤣🤣 I recently got box braids for the first time, and gurlll!😂😂 everything in this video is so true!🤣🤣🤯 but they cute!😍👑👑
Lol. Braids be sounding like a whole bad relationship following you , gettin in your way
I feel reborn after i get box braids. No laying on my back to sleep. I have to sit up to sleep.😭
I sleep on my stomach lol
I love this. Just got mine done and u already know I’m feeling u so hard rn
Oh my gooodness! You had me laughing the whole ways doll face! I’m a newbie on your channel! I’m hooked!🤣 Love the braids on you btw! 😍
I don't have braids or anything but I can totally feel you on some of the issues you had. I have waist length hair so the toilet thing is a big issue. Also I can get to sleep easy but sometimes I do wake up in the middle of the night with my hair wrapped around my throat. I kinda get the feeling that my hair might be plotting against me lol. Despite it all I wouldn't cut it. I love my hair just like I love your braids. They're so beautiful. I would definitely put up with all that for that kind beautiful hair style.
NicNac's Dream my husband has hair down to his waist. He usually braids it for sleep but when he changes sides at night and flicks the braid I often get it square on my face 😂 I think his hair is plotting to kill me 😁
Girl my hair is past my butt so imagine that lmao
I bet your hair also tries to plot murder! :D
Omg :o did you try to hold it in a loose bun or ponytail? Or maybe you prefer sleeping with your hair loose? which I totally get tbh.
@@eleanor.shadow both ya'll hair be plotting muerderr😄
I’ve been getting braids my whole life and I have never soaked them lol and I never get itchy. I usually use kanekalon hair
Where u get kanekalon hair ?
@@missyanne1299 order it online. Amazon,etc
@Missy Anne, it also can be found at most beauty supply stores except Sally's. But it can also itch as well at least it did me.
I get the pre soaked ones becsuse I want braids to be lazy, so I can't be bothered.....
alva jenkins Sally’s has it
Yesssss!!!! I know exactly wat you mean dont know if i should laugh or cry!! Lol😂😂my family think im going cray cray from all the patty, but its really itch 🤦♀️
You’re funny🤣😏Last, but not least lol I’m feeling myself...pause the madness, cute now carry-on💁🏽♀️💅🏽Idc how old the video was I was researching and came across this and now you have a newbie subbie🤘🏽💯
Seriously loving your personality
I never got box braids before, but when I did.....Gurl.Gurl.Gurl.....the first two weeks..."take me to the king. I don't have much to bring.", was all I was singing.
aint u are the cutest when u talk! im subscribing for this! 🤣🤣🤣
Love your humorous take on having braids . You are hilarious
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😆😆 as a true braid wearer since I was 10 years old you were so on point with this.
😂😂 I can relate to the sleep deprivation, the tightness and pain. It's so annoying, I hated it so much. I had to get a haircut. It's so exhausting. I'm planning to learn to do my hair myself.
I just got braids yesterday and this video is so relatable! And hilarious!
Nae you are so crazy girl, that's why I love you!
Omg yes!!! They make the simplest stuff difficult. Smh especially using the bathroom and showering. And what is sleep?!
Lmao you a mess, but I feel your pain. Great video Nae ❤️
I was fortunate enough to hear about them braids girl a sister ain't going to do it and I'm tender-headed to thank you for reinforcing my thoughts cuz sometimes be like mmmm, but your hair is to cute.
I stumbled upon your video and SUBSCRIBED! GURL!! Went from a faded natural to a head full of crochet passion twists. You had me hollerin.🤣..My neck do hurt..One side is shaved really close.
I'm right with you, they are cute but I'm never getting them again because they itch real bad and I'm ready to pull them out and they're dumb heavy and definitely always in the way 😩😩
Mimi Iman you have to treat the hair first vingar soak then rinse
Mimi Iman put water in ya scalp but yesss itching is the worst
When u have super long braids u can sot on them
Lol!
Girl you are too funny and your braids are FIRE🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hilarious! I am thinking of getting box braids soon to avoid doing my hair for a few months. Very helpful. Thanks so much!
Most of this long hair struggles 😂
You were dead on, just got mine, now trying to figure out how to wash my hair.
Thank you for doing this video❣️ I’ve always wanted to have them... I guess I’ll continue the love on my own mane❣️
Loved your video and just wanted to share that braids fall into your food when you're preparing or eating.
YESSS edge check constantly because my first experience with braids left me scarred.... :(
I'm used to braids I'm just annoyed with my braids right now. My hairstyle is similar to yours right now. My hair fuzzed out already 😫😭 after 2 weeks. My hair can't keep braids unless its the single plaits. Now I look like cornrow gone bad with the lion mane buts it's a sign my hair grows fast. As your hair grows your braids gets heavier 😵 so you're carrying extra weight. The endings start to stick u and you get even annoyed especially when they didn't trim the ish more. You feel relieved when you get your braids done because of the style you want and it's protective but give it a week or 2 and you over it. Keeping braids in too long can cause some ppl to start locking and detangling it can be a nightmare.
KikiLM23 girl preach! My hair start to protest after two weeks and locks up at the base.ny hair like girl, you triedddd
😂😂Especially if you are natural..My hair frizzed up around the 2week too..Pissed!! B/c they were so tight so I just new they would last but my hair was like Tuhh You Thought!!
Stumbled on to this video and this is the funniest thing I've seen in time 😂
I had neck pain for a week when I just got my braids done, couldn’t get comfortable and sleep. I pinned my hair up and it helped a bit but still. My satin bonnet at the moment is the only thing now making it bearable for me to sleep
You are funny! I see stand up in your future😂😂
Love your braids and makeup 💄
The trying to slip bit!! Yes!! I thought I would just never sleep again!
Loved this video girl they look awesome if it get braids I’ll take this video as reference
Giiirllll same af. This is exactly why I admire braids from a distance. I'm too damn indecisive anyways & im already knowing how mad my scalp would be! She act a fool now, I couldn't image adding itchy hair and tight braids to the mix lol I love you tho girl 💋💋💋 were besties in my head 🤣
I got my hair braided like a month ago let’s just say I’m never going to get professionally done again they weren’t as tight like I could sleep and I didn’t have a headache but let’s just say I saw way too many white bulbs at the end of hairs popping out 😩 I still have them in and they are old as hell but I’m pretty sure I don’t have any edges anymore I even told the woman at first she was braiding too tight she laughed and said something in her language I should have got up then smh
Girl you scaring me💀they gone leave me bald
Sunshine Hernandez Sometimes you have to ask them to be gentle around the edges before braiding. I did that last time and they did not hurt at all.
Oh thats Lauren if anyone braid your hair tight . YOU NEED TO GET UP AND LEAVE. Because hair don’t suppose to be super tight
I just braided my hair yesterday and i couldnt sleep i still have pain how long this pain last 😭😭😭
My braids hurted for 3-4days after that no more
I agree I have braids right now too (giving my wash and go a break) and what gets me is how quickly your scalp gets dry and itchy. I have to moisturize everyday just about before bed.
Love your personality lmao! Subscribed!
She said “ain’t no sleep” “me and sleep we like best friends” that killed me
Yes definitely feeling this video, I just got mine done 2 days ago and do not remember how bad these braids hurt. My scalp is virginized been like 10 years since I had braids in my hair Im honestly about to take them out, I keep thinking about losing my sides. The weight is annoying and yes its interfering with sleep lol and I needs all dat lol beautiful style but comes with a price metaphorically and financially lol I think I'm over the braids unless its my own hair sheesh I had enough lol😭😂😭❤️
Thanks for speaking the truth. I am glade that you are telling the truth. I am cracking up because everything that you are talking about. I thought it was me. I wanted to go back stylist to asked her why in the heck she did not tell me the things that you were experiencing.
Omg you are hilarious 😂😂 SUBSCRIBED☑️ this vid was also very helpful ! I really want braids like this but now I got some things to consider ! They definitely do look bomb on you tho!! You’re gorgeous 😍
Another thing after they put the water the water be dripping down your back
🤣 the first time I got feed in braids I took 3 ibuprofen and put a towel on my head which didn't work. Couldn't sleep until I took a shower later on that night to help loosen it up lawd. When I took them out my edges were thin because she braids so tight
I'm in tears- too funny! Getting ready to get braids now I'm afraid
Lol that was funny. Love your braids AND the eye shadow!
