L O what she said is somewhat true in some cases though but the wording could have been better but white women who have mixed kids tend to not know how to do their hair and their kids hair and that lends up to them straightening it so much it’s crazy the amount of heat damaged mixed girls I’ve seen it’s so sad :( but this could be the same for black women who have mixed kids as well!
L O lol, you're so stereotypical. Not all blacks girls have relaxed hair! The (black) mom's who care about our appearance always have our edges laid. You tried it! You sound just as bad.
What the stylist said is so true. I remember when I went natural. I'd gotten some faux locs and decorated them and I felt some type of way that I couldn't explain. I came downstairs and my (asian) husband said "You look like an African Princess." I was speechless and proud. A princess, is exactly what I felt like. Lol.
My husband is also Asian (Filipino) and there are time where I break down and cry dealing with my 3b/3c curly hair but he’s always so sweet. He praises my hair and encourages me to not get it relaxed and promises to not let our daughter feel insecure about her hair as she gets older
I got black friends included altought sadly they are faaar away as it`s online friends and i can only text them mostly or skype on calls. My sister is from Palestine as she is from fostercare home unlike me who`s adopted and from the Philippines. I just have minor curls mainly thick but wavy hair. It can make some small curls at certain part of my hair the longer it gets. My sister in the otherhand have more curlier hair and it gets more poofier and tangled compared my wavy thick hair texture. As my norwegian parents also divorced and mostly none of my other norwegian relatives. Even my father nobody knows how to handle thick curly hair like sisters hair or my asian thick hair. So as a sister what i had to do. Was to turn into more information about curlier hairstyle, hairproducts specialized for thicker yet stubborn curly hair like my sisters. My sister used to hate her curly hair, always wanted it more straight like her norwegian friends, which of course do not have the thickness nor the curliness as she does. I hated to see that, so what i did. I continued study into different products, which one worked better in her hair. Now she started to wear her natural hair more then ever. I also changed her hair decorations like when she going to tie her hair. She use the thicker types then the thin ones that snap right away. As she often before would get more tangled endhair before. Also i gave her as a present a wider tooth comb.
OurLittleSecretYT true i know some moms that have a mixed race children but will put on weave on them than rather learning about her daughters hair texture bc its so hard to handle
Caroline Teague I understand what you’re saying, yet there is no need to feel like it’s odd or inappropriate to show interest in other cultures. As Americans we are united as a melting pot of many cultures and showing interest and love for each other, and even sharing styles, is the way it should be in this country♥️🇺🇸
As a non black person this was super informative and interesting to watch. Growing up around black people I was always fascinated by their hair because they were done in so many different styles and braids and I just loved the details :)
I am a non black person as well and i love how the natural crulys arenjust perfect like my cruly are like the worst and i love yje braids and all the details I actually like to braid my friends braids
Spaghetitty at a point all black box braid hairstylists go as fast as that, my mom is not a professional hairstylist but when she braids my sisters hair her fingers move exactly the same, it’s truly amazing, even my lip sisters hairstylists they all move the same.

Genesis Ramsey I totally agree, it helps us white people to understand why cultural appropriation is such an offensive thing, and watching these videos makes me appreciate it more and more. It's more than just a "look" it is history.
I don't know what amazed me more - how perfect her eyeliner shape is, how beautiful her hair is, or how her father looks like he is 5-10 years older than her
Shout out to Jasmine's mom. She's like our mom in how she kept our hair in braids when we were younger so that it was able to grow. Oh and Dr. Kari did an amazing job! Learned so much! ♥️
TwoLaLa my mom used to take me to my grandmas to get it braided and it was so long then she tried to perm my sisters hair and dreaded and my mom is lazy so she just cut it all off and then she cut mine off so my sister wouldn’t feel bad😭😭😭
Your hair is gorgeous and I love the history your stylist told. I had to share this video with friends that I know this would definitely have more meaning to. It's good to see women lifting each other like this.
Wow this is not just a hair dresser. She is a history professor. Love love how you talk, how you explain in detail how African hair signifies a lot of things. I wish I have a hair dresser like you who can discuss about African heritage, culture and other things that matter instead of talking rubbish over my ears. So much respect. And the end result is amazing.❤❤❤👏👏👏👏
Its not culture to me, its just a hairstyle. I'm not from Africa, neither are my parents, or their parents. Idk why all of a sudden y'all care about culture so much.
Spongebob It’s not just a hairstyle. It’s cultural heritage. Like the stylist said: Historically, the way black people wore their hair told a personal story. It signified status in the same way as for example a specific kind of car does now. Moreso - and something the stylist didn’t say (at least not in this video. Idk if they cut it out) - one of the first things white enslavers did before crossing the Atlantic was to cut off the hair of the black slaves. Essentially taking away what had symbolized their personality and status (they also made sure to separate people from the same tribes, rendering the slaves basically unable to communicate with eachother, but that’s another story). So when black people nowadays decide to embrace these hairstyles it’s essentially reclaiming what white people tried to take away from them. That’s why it’s not just a hairstyle. It bears cultural significance. And it’s important to acknowledge that even if you can’t relate.
Spongebob thats because you aren’t black and aren’t connected. It’s not a culture to you. It’s a culture to us. It’s a part of black culture - it is what it is 🙅🏾♀️
Being mexican/black is a beautiful combination...of different cultures...Besides being beautiful she has a great personality...Her mom is beautiful as well..Inside and out.
Christine Newhouse Mexican isn’t a race. Do you not realize “black” itself has multiple cultures because it IS a race. It’s like half the people in the comment section don’t think
Zu Sh actually, "race" doesn't exist, we are ALL one species of human and we ALL originated from Africa. The first Europeans, Americans, Asians etc were all "black" before their features changed to adapt to the climates. Also homo sapiens are a mix of many human species that's why we have so much beautiful diversity ! Africa isn't the whole world but the whole world is Africa.
This makes me wanna cry, My daughter's hair is basically the same hair texture but about 8 inches longer. All through Elementary School and Middle School I would put pretty braids, hair accessories all of the time. But I don't know what happened to her since she entered High School. It almost seems that her self-esteem has dropped drastically. Every time I want to do her hair like this girl in the video or similar. My daughter always says that she does not want her hair to get a lot of attention. She also states that she does not want other girls to feel bad about their own hair. My daughter is afraid to embrace her own natural beauty. Because she is afraid of offending other girls or she is afraid that other girls will feel bad about themselves. This is so sad. I am very glad that this young lady is embracing herself in this video.
I understand what your daughter might be feeling. I never wear my hair down or do elaborate styles because I don't want to draw attention. I have thick hair so wearing it down ensures people see it. I didn't want to keep people behind me from seeing what we were being taught. I didn't want my hair to be a problem for others looking back. It's a long process I'm still struggling with this myself but she needs to accept her hair really. There's a whole youtube community you could introduce her to. Take her to a curl specialist so she could see how good her hair can look. It's little things that add up and can help.
@@cinnamon3220 , Not sure if I should say I’m biracial, but I am Somali.I never felt like I fit in with the girls with straight hair, or the black girls, or even the Biracial people, since I don’t have interracial parents, although people claim I do.If I try to relate with a certain group, they would sometimes say “you wouldn’t know” .My mum would always tell me I’m not like the black people.Like my mum saying, “ you don’t need hair extensions “ or “you don’t need that”.I don’t feel like I relate with anyone, I’m either too black, or not black enough.😔
@@naomiabdul7838 I thank you for your response. My daughter also feels the same way that you do. I'm concerned that she doesn't have any friends because she believes that she doesn't fit in. She's a beautiful girl but she doesn't see it. I pray that she will be okay, Thanks!
I have hair identical to her except I have dark brown hair and then people with short luscious sliky hair will be like my hair is so like messy and then I say your so lucky u dont have a head of hair like mine
its probably because im on my period rn but like when Dr. Kari was talking about how passing down oral traditions and braiding hair was so intrinsically linked, and how she was basically doing that with Jasmine? i started bawling 😭😭 Jasmine youre doing great and looking amazing keep it up!!!!
It’s amazing how our hair unites us. I’m commenting from Kenya and I felt like I was watching my sisters. I loved that Dr. Kari understands the history of black hair. And, when she pulled out the toothbrush at the end I was like “welcome home sister!” ❣️🌺
I really like Dr. Kari Williams history lesson on braids. It makes so much since that when you put in hair accessories specially “gold” you feel like a Nubia Queen I love my culture 💖there is truly power in black hair... Stay turning heads!!
I’m Italian and I found this video so interesting to watch. You’re culture is very beautiful well, every culture is beautiful but it was good to learn more about yours
I love her hair but the fact that for some reason people think that darker skinned women and men with long hair has fake hair, is so annoying because my hair is quite long and I’m black and people always ask me if my hair is real. Like what’s your problem?
tyljos jodun yes I know there’s nothing wrong in asking but it’s just that you don’t find people always asking white girls if their hairs real; I’m just saying it gets on my nerves.
tyljos jodun it’s not the same thing so you can’t really compare them but it just annoys me how some people expect black people to have fake hair; just my opinion
I feel like a complete idiot. Because of my broken ass english i thought the title read “jasmine’s BROWN hair...” and i like, dude, her hair’s black tf you talking about? And then i came to the realization that her surname was Brown. Jeez Ps: this video was magical and she is GORGEOUS 💕
I am african (Mozambican) what the lady in the salon is saying is what my grandmother says to my sister every time we go visit. Its kind of funny! Like they read the same manual.
@Rui Clive Mindo Bless you. That's because in spite of our ancestors being forced and snatched from their homes and homelands they are still who they are. So they continued their traditions through to us as much as possible. So much was torn from and tortured out of them yet they stood strong to ensure that we would not be totally lost to who we are truly. A good chunk my grandmother's DNA is from East and Southeast Africa. Love to you from America.
I absolutely loved this braiding and the owner of the salon, especially about the beautiful, colorful history of Africa and braiding. I was entranced the second she started talking about it. What a wonderful diversity on one continent. I'm Mexican-American, too; blessings to those of African descent world-wide! 💖💖💖💖💖
I am so glad that her mother asked for help since she has different hair than her daughter. My mom always dry brushed my hair and put dry shampoo in it and didnt know how to care about it or teach me how to care about it since she has straight and I have curly hair like my dad, but my dad always cut his hair so short that you couldnt even see the curls. He was always against her 'torturing' my hair as he called it😂😂 And where I live very little people have curly hair, when I was smaller in kindergartem kids would get so jealous that they would chase me around with scissors to cut my hair off or they would stick gum in it😭😭 Glad I know how to care about it now❤ Edit: thanks for all the likes guys 😊
Red Blue there r mad cause u have beautiful hair cause curlyand kinky coyly curly hair is so beautiful and and I can slay so many different hair styles
I was skipping some parts of the video so I can see her final look but when the salon lady started talking about the origin of the braids and their culture I immediately stop skipping and watched that part until she finished braiding her. As a non-black person it was very informative, because not all people know about these and I also like learning other cultures.
When I clicked on this video and saw Jasmine her hair, it reminded me of the first time I saw Diana Ross as a little girl. Her hair looked just like Jasmine's and I told my mom that I thought she was beautiful and wished I had hair like that, to which my mom replied "so does she" and explained to me that Diana wore a lot of wigs and weaves. Before that I wasn't aware that was even a thing and it's been the turning moment in my life where I became obsessed with constantly changing my hair and wearing wigs. And here beautiful Jasmine has that hair, all of her own. Just stunning!
So glad the Dr. took the opportunity to educate. Lots of people have no idea that braids are actually far more than a style and the origin is brilliant 💪🏽🙏🏽
I get my hair box braided often and never knew about the retouching part for the front part. I would usually go the full 8-10 weeks without going back to the salon
Rachel D what if you do like a mohawk style? Cornrows on the edges and box braids in the middle? Will that mess edges up too? I really want braids but I can’t coz my edges are too fine 😔
I love her hair knowledge and the sound of her voice. I also love her nails, and her posture while braiding. This woman is amazing. What I love most, is the fact that she said she moved away from the knot braiding technique. UGH. I hate braids with knots sooo much. The invisible or knotless technique I live for. Need them now. Great job, love her hair.
Wrightseducation admin because braids dont look as full. Try box braids without added hair and you see the difference. And your hair will get frizzer quicker with no added hair
I’m white, and have wavy, frizzy hair. I love watching videos like this because the background of braids and people of color is so magnificent. You’re hair is so beautiful and you’re blessed to have it.

Genesis Ramsey I totally agree, it helps us white people to understand why cultural appropriation is such an offensive thing, and watching these videos makes me appreciate it more and more. It's more than just a "look" it is history.
Loved filming this with y’all 😭💗💗💗 it’s such a good video i loveeee.
Jasmine Brown that was so well done. Much success to you.
Great job on the video!
You’ve always been a queen but these braids make your crown shine brighter 👸🏽👸🏾👸🏿
We had so much fun filming with you +Jasmine Brown!!! Hope we can do it again soon ❤️
Jasmine Brown omg jasmin i have the same hair but only shorter
I don't know what amazed me more - how perfect her eyeliner shape is, how beautiful her hair is, or how her father looks like he is 5-10 years older than her
Shout out to Jasmine's mom. She's like our mom in how she kept our hair in braids when we were younger so that it was able to grow. Oh and Dr. Kari did an amazing job! Learned so much! ♥️
My mom too, it was either braids or the tightest ponytail ever.
Same here.. I am frm India, I also feel the same ❤❤
TwoLaLa e$fgrttttgrgetgyrttuesetwagarhrer
TwoLaLa my mom used to take me to my grandmas to get it braided and it was so long then she tried to perm my sisters hair and dreaded and my mom is lazy so she just cut it all off and then she cut mine off so my sister wouldn’t feel bad😭😭😭
Lol my mom kept it in braids cause she got tired of detangling it all the rom XD
Woah, she braids so fast!😱
Your hair is gorgeous and I love the history your stylist told. I had to share this video with friends that I know this would definitely have more meaning to. It's good to see women lifting each other like this.

Wow this is not just a hair dresser. She is a history professor. Love love how you talk, how you explain in detail how African hair signifies a lot of things. I wish I have a hair dresser like you who can discuss about African heritage, culture and other things that matter instead of talking rubbish over my ears. So much respect. And the end result is amazing.❤❤❤👏👏👏👏
*Before braid, Gorgeous.*
*After braid, Gorgeous.*

This was really fantastic. A lot of people don't know that this is why black hair styles are so special and beautiful.
+dcinfinity Thanks! What else would you like to see here?
She looks gorgeous with those braids
The jewellery and baby hairs really brought it together. Absolutely stunning.
Can we give a moment how good that women did her hair, and how good jasmine looked in those box braids !!!!
THAT LADY'S FINGERS WENT SO FAST OML
Clara Do ikr 😂
This lady is so lovely and soulful
I'm so glad she gave the history .. and what our hair means to us...its not just a "style" or trend it's culture..a way of life ..loved this.
its the same with other race and culture in Europe
. People just don't know about that.

Its not culture to me, its just a hairstyle. I'm not from Africa, neither are my parents, or their parents. Idk why all of a sudden y'all care about culture so much.
Spongebob It’s not just a hairstyle. It’s cultural heritage. Like the stylist said: Historically, the way black people wore their hair told a personal story. It signified status in the same way as for example a specific kind of car does now. Moreso - and something the stylist didn’t say (at least not in this video. Idk if they cut it out) - one of the first things white enslavers did before crossing the Atlantic was to cut off the hair of the black slaves. Essentially taking away what had symbolized their personality and status (they also made sure to separate people from the same tribes, rendering the slaves basically unable to communicate with eachother, but that’s another story). So when black people nowadays decide to embrace these hairstyles it’s essentially reclaiming what white people tried to take away from them. That’s why it’s not just a hairstyle. It bears cultural significance. And it’s important to acknowledge that even if you can’t relate.
Spongebob thats because you aren’t black and aren’t connected. It’s not a culture to you. It’s a culture to us. It’s a part of black culture - it is what it is 🙅🏾♀️
Being mexican/black is a beautiful combination...of different cultures...Besides being beautiful she has a great personality...Her mom is beautiful as well..Inside and out.
Christine Newhouse Mexican isn’t a race. Do you not realize “black” itself has multiple cultures because it IS a race. It’s like half the people in the comment section don’t think
Christine Newhouse I am black and mexican too same hair type and I have no clue what to do with mines at times ☹️
Christine Newhouse k
kiki9619 Sure will thanks 💜🦋💜
Zu Sh actually, "race" doesn't exist, we are ALL one species of human and we ALL originated from Africa. The first Europeans, Americans, Asians etc were all "black" before their features changed to adapt to the climates. Also homo sapiens are a mix of many human species that's why we have so much beautiful diversity !
Africa isn't the whole world but the whole world is Africa.
She's soooo gorgeous with her natural hair and her box braids. I absolutely LOVED learning about the history of braiding. This is an AMAZING video
+allananicolas Thank you!! :) What should we do next?
This girl is one of the most beautiful human being ive ever seen
This makes me wanna cry, My daughter's hair is basically the same hair texture but about 8 inches longer. All through Elementary School and Middle School I would put pretty braids, hair accessories all of the time. But I don't know what happened to her since she entered High School. It almost seems that her self-esteem has dropped drastically. Every time I want to do her hair like this girl in the video or similar. My daughter always says that she does not want her hair to get a lot of attention. She also states that she does not want other girls to feel bad about their own hair. My daughter is afraid to embrace her own natural beauty. Because she is afraid of offending other girls or she is afraid that other girls will feel bad about themselves. This is so sad. I am very glad that this young lady is embracing herself in this video.
I would kill for that hair
@Princess Sunny Thankfully you have given me an idea that I haven't thought about. I will do that...God Bless!
I understand what your daughter might be feeling. I never wear my hair down or do elaborate styles because I don't want to draw attention. I have thick hair so wearing it down ensures people see it. I didn't want to keep people behind me from seeing what we were being taught. I didn't want my hair to be a problem for others looking back. It's a long process I'm still struggling with this myself but she needs to accept her hair really. There's a whole youtube community you could introduce her to. Take her to a curl specialist so she could see how good her hair can look. It's little things that add up and can help.
@@cinnamon3220 , Not sure if I should say I’m biracial, but I am Somali.I never felt like I fit in with the girls with straight hair, or the black girls, or even the Biracial people, since I don’t have interracial parents, although people claim I do.If I try to relate with a certain group, they would sometimes say “you wouldn’t know” .My mum would always tell me I’m not like the black people.Like my mum saying, “ you don’t need hair extensions “ or “you don’t need that”.I don’t feel like I relate with anyone, I’m either too black, or not black enough.😔
@@naomiabdul7838 I thank you for your response. My daughter also feels the same way that you do. I'm concerned that she doesn't have any friends because she believes that she doesn't fit in. She's a beautiful girl but she doesn't see it. I pray that she will be okay, Thanks!
I just about teared up when she was getting her hair braided and getting the info... So powerful!
Her natural hair is gorgeous!! The braids look really good too!
And here I am struggling with my neck length hair damn 😭
😂😂😂😂😂ah feel ur pain
Same-
I have hair identical to her except I have dark brown hair and then people with short luscious sliky hair will be like my hair is so like messy and then I say your so lucky u dont have a head of hair like mine
jasmine is so pretty
its probably because im on my period rn but like when Dr. Kari was talking about how passing down oral traditions and braiding hair was so intrinsically linked, and how she was basically doing that with Jasmine? i started bawling 😭😭
Jasmine youre doing great and looking amazing keep it up!!!!
the stylist is a gem, she talks to jasmine like its her baby... ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
It’s amazing how our hair unites us. I’m commenting from Kenya and I felt like I was watching my sisters. I loved that Dr. Kari understands the history of black hair. And, when she pulled out the toothbrush at the end I was like “welcome home sister!” ❣️🌺
I really like Dr. Kari Williams history lesson on braids. It makes so much since that when you put in hair accessories specially “gold” you feel like a Nubia Queen I love my culture 💖there is truly power in black hair... Stay turning heads!!
*Shell* Same here sis!
I did the big chop a year n 7 months.. when i tell u ather the awkward stage hunni it is power in our hair
Taz Man Lol yes girl the awkward stage was crucial but we all get through it, and blossom so beautifully.... Stay blessed y’all✌🏿
❤️
I’m Italian and I found this video so interesting to watch. You’re culture is very beautiful well, every culture is beautiful but it was good to learn more about yours
I love her hair but the fact that for some reason people think that darker skinned women and men with long hair has fake hair, is so annoying because my hair is quite long and I’m black and people always ask me if my hair is real. Like what’s your problem?
we arent you
and it looks to good to be true, so it is human nature to ask there is nothing wrong in asking
tyljos jodun yes I know there’s nothing wrong in asking but it’s just that you don’t find people always asking white girls if their hairs real; I’m just saying it gets on my nerves.
if you are a horse and you find a unicorn will you ask it if it's real
tyljos jodun it’s not the same thing so you can’t really compare them but it just annoys me how some people expect black people to have fake hair; just my opinion
must be quite annoying but thanks for putting up with us
I feel like a complete idiot. Because of my broken ass english i thought the title read “jasmine’s BROWN hair...” and i like, dude, her hair’s black tf you talking about? And then i came to the realization that her surname was Brown. Jeez
Ps: this video was magical and she is GORGEOUS 💕
Me2🤪
don't swear please. (Jesus Christ saves!)
magic is false :)
I thought she dyed her hair from black to brown lmaoo
@@monicalivesforchrist5901 go away
Respecting black hair...I'm loving this channel
I think she looks absolutely amazing with braids👏🏽
She looked beautiful with and without the braids.. I’m jealous of her hair lol
Same
Me too😂
Haha same
Samme lol 😅
She beautiful on a wholeeee
I just love the history behind black hair it’s so amazing how a hairstyle has so much history behind it!
Yes mama! Nonblack ppl with black kids need to take advice from jasmines mom!
half black, dont erase their other identity.
saeefa what?
Biracial you mean. Only black people can have black kids. Like white people have white kids. Asians have Asian kids
@@saeefa or better yet don't disrespect black identity
She's triracial, Mexican isn't a race
the video sounded like poetry...rich history
Massive hair!
She’s drop dead gorgeous and the new braids look SO good 👌🏼👌🏼
PS anyone going to mention not only her hair but her eye shape is absolutely gorgeous!!! Perfect almond shape and so pretty !❤️
I am in love with the hair stylist and the way she speaks about our culture.. and those braids are absolutely gorgeous D:
OMG ...that braiding speed # talent
I am african (Mozambican) what the lady in the salon is saying is what my grandmother says to my sister every time we go visit. Its kind of funny! Like they read the same manual.
Rui Clive Mindo the culture 🖤
@Rui Clive Mindo Bless you. That's because in spite of our ancestors being forced and snatched from their homes and homelands they are still who they are. So they continued their traditions through to us as much as possible. So much was torn from and tortured out of them yet they stood strong to ensure that we would not be totally lost to who we are truly. A good chunk my grandmother's DNA is from East and Southeast Africa. Love to you from America.
Hi I'm Mozambican 🇲🇿 too.
I always wondered what people from Mozambique called themselves thanks for that teaching me though😊(Kenyan BTW😁)
Formula one: I’m the fastest
The lady braiding: *hold my conditioner*
oh my she’s like the prettiest person I’ve ever seen!! 😩💓
sorjaソリヤ k
I know
Yeah because you're white
U should see Zendaya
Omfg her hair looks amazing
Oh yeah yeah
I absolutely loved this braiding and the owner of the salon, especially about the beautiful, colorful history of Africa and braiding. I was entranced the second she started talking about it. What a wonderful diversity on one continent. I'm Mexican-American, too; blessings to those of African descent world-wide! 💖💖💖💖💖
I thinking “How can you be a doctor in hair?!” Then I saw her technique and she started talking and wow... THAT is why she’s a doctor in hair.
I am so glad that her mother asked for help since she has different hair than her daughter.
My mom always dry brushed my hair and put dry shampoo in it and didnt know how to care about it or teach me how to care about it since she has straight and I have curly hair like my dad, but my dad always cut his hair so short that you couldnt even see the curls.
He was always against her 'torturing' my hair as he called it😂😂
And where I live very little people have curly hair, when I was smaller in kindergartem kids would get so jealous that they would chase me around with scissors to cut my hair off or they would stick gum in it😭😭
Glad I know how to care about it now❤
Edit: thanks for all the likes guys 😊
+redblue Thanks for sharing!
Red Blue there r mad cause u have beautiful hair cause curlyand kinky coyly curly hair is so beautiful and and I can slay so many different hair styles
Havilla123 Havilla123 true true 😭❤
I bet your hair is also stunning😍
Atleast I'm not the only one who was chased with sissors for my hair in school
Weeaboo Tomboy I didnt know someone else had that experience😭I hope your hair is okay now tho❤
She did an amazing job but what i love the most is how happy Jasmine is and the communication that went on between her and her stylist
Who thinks she looks a little like zendya
Fr 😂
💕💕💕 yesss
Kinda
yeag
Cause their mixed ? No
I was skipping some parts of the video so I can see her final look but when the salon lady started talking about the origin of the braids and their culture I immediately stop skipping and watched that part until she finished braiding her. As a non-black person it was very informative, because not all people know about these and I also like learning other cultures.
Wow her mom did an amazing job with Jasmines hair as a child
Omg I love Jasmines voice and she is honestly stunning
super cute braids!!! AND the STYLIST was gorgeous - the makeup, hair, and attitude was flawless on her.
Also can we all just appreciate how skilled the hairdresser is?!😱 👌🏻
ooooHH YESSSS! Dr. Kari did a wonderful job! Jasmine looks beautiful!!
When I clicked on this video and saw Jasmine her hair, it reminded me of the first time I saw Diana Ross as a little girl. Her hair looked just like Jasmine's and I told my mom that I thought she was beautiful and wished I had hair like that, to which my mom replied "so does she" and explained to me that Diana wore a lot of wigs and weaves. Before that I wasn't aware that was even a thing and it's been the turning moment in my life where I became obsessed with constantly changing my hair and wearing wigs. And here beautiful Jasmine has that hair, all of her own. Just stunning!
Her hair is so beautiful!!
So glad the Dr. took the opportunity to educate. Lots of people have no idea that braids are actually far more than a style and the origin is brilliant 💪🏽🙏🏽
luv this its like a documentary !!!
+nykiarodriguez Thank you! What else would you like to see from us?
I get my hair box braided often and never knew about the retouching part for the front part. I would usually go the full 8-10 weeks without going back to the salon
Wendy-Alexina Vancol my stylist actually recommends not retouching. It puts too much stress on the edges.
I can’t keep mine in for longer than 3 weeks
Rachel D what if you do like a mohawk style? Cornrows on the edges and box braids in the middle? Will that mess edges up too? I really want braids but I can’t coz my edges are too fine 😔
Christianna450 if the braids are too tight they will pull your edges out regardless of style cornrows or singles
Gotta get them edges redidc
My mom is African American and my Dad is Puerto Rican so it makes for a very interesting hair texture ❤️
Same except my dad is black and my mom is Cuban
I love her hair knowledge and the sound of her voice. I also love her nails, and her posture while braiding. This woman is amazing. What I love most, is the fact that she said she moved away from the knot braiding technique. UGH. I hate braids with knots sooo much. The invisible or knotless technique I live for. Need them now. Great job, love her hair.
Her hair looks so beautiful! That's that black girl magic 💗💗
Lol.... Yeessss
I love the stylist hair. She did that 🤗🤗
Black culture is so beautiful, I would love to travel and explore the different cultures and history backgrounds around the world ❤️
Come Africa
Wow it's like she doesn't even need the braids added in😨
sandy.cheekys koech you mean the weave?
Yeah I don't get why they didn't just braid her natural hair
Wrightseducation admin because braids dont look as full. Try box braids without added hair and you see the difference. And your hair will get frizzer quicker with no added hair
sandy.cheekys koech i see u everywhere for hair growth things
If the stylist made very small braids they would look full. Her hair his long and thick enough.
Do I feel tears in my eyes?,, she reminded her mom the time she was doing her hair
Some people are just soo beautiful♥️♥️♥️♥️
I’m white, and have wavy, frizzy hair. I love watching videos like this because the background of braids and people of color is so magnificent. You’re hair is so beautiful and you’re blessed to have it.
I love jasmines hair I love her channel too but that STYLIST GIRL her hair is just as bomb the feather and everything!!❤❤❤❤❤
babygirl13 williamz I love jasmins hair to
Her hair is so beautiful! I love how this embraces her identity but also shows the culture and background of these styles
