Just go be clear there’s NOTHING wrong with paying for hair services ! (Chile I still pay of course!) this is just a tutorial for when you want to do your own hair! No hate on this channel, just want to share loving content to all ❤️❤️
How many braids did you do beautiful🌷
@@familyfirst8853 I can’t remember exactly a little less than 4 packs
Thank you so much for replying&I meant the separating hair the braids not the packs🌷
This video is great. Keep up the great work.Your hair looks amazing
Great video - thanks for posting this! I gotta practice.
Girly you saved me because I’m not trying to pay $400 for some faux locs that last less than 2 months.. my hair and bank account is happy thanks girl!!💕
I’m so glad I could help 🥺❤️❤️❤️
$400 and ppl be acking like I be charging a lot at $120
@@misskita87 $120 is an amazing price!!!!
Girl I tell ya!!! If I did hair I’d snatch everyone’s customers Cuhz my prices would be affordable for EVERYONE
Two months mine lasted 2 weeks and I was hoping for it to last at least a month considering the price being charged
Retired hairstylist here! I agree, the prices for getting crochets done are ridiculous! Working in a corporate salon, they were charging people dumb prices!
Why did you retired hon?
I’ve looked up different tutorials to do these locs and everyone tries to make it so complicated but I found yours and it was a breeze. It took about 6 1/2 hours but it turned out really cute. Thank you
OMG I’m so happy to hear that!!! I’m so glad I could help!!!
I was searching to see how long this took people. Thank you for coming back to comment! 🙏🏽💕
6 and a half hours!? 😱
You made this look so easy, I jumped up & ran to the beauty supply. Babyyy let me tell you! It’s just as easy as you explained it to be. This is the BEST tutorial especially for someone who has no experience in hair because I loveeee how my hair turned out! I just had to come back to your video & really thank you for making this! ❤
Wowowow we love to see it!!! I’m so happy it was easy for you I bet you look amazing 🥹
How much was all the hair?
@@tazhanaiI found a 6 pack on Amazon for about $20. I haven't received them yet but the reviews are great.
I have longer hair. i braided all of my hair ,small to medium width and I cannot get it right, the hair that is getting twisted around the faux loc does not want to cover my braid ! I want to do this so bad but I feel defeated. 😢
@@samimacc3127you can try putting ur real hair inside the loc with the hook?
Sis you ain't never lied $250 to $300 in California where I live. I stopped going to hair shops years ago no more. I been doing my own hair ever since. It's so worth it.
I'm a Breast Cancer Survivor and I've been wearing wigs and a ponytail. I was so interested in the Locs and didn't realize how much they can cost. Your Video was right on time.. Just watching has given me the confidence to do it.
Thank you for the Visual encouragement and to show my gratitude I'm I have subscribed to your channel
Thank you Queen 👑👏💕
I so appreciate you being here !🥹❤️
congratulations on your recovery!! 💗💗💗
You make it look so easy. Someone just quoted me $300 for this same style. Glad this came on my timeline.😁💚💚💚
Yup! My styling said $275 hair included,but still 😮
So I ask, how did yours turn out
@@njidekaeberechukwu6789They turned out hella cute, but not going to lie it took me a whole day (my hair is hella thick) and I only left it in a week (I was going to ATL for vacation)😂. I paid $25 for hair and I would recommend trying. It wasn't perfect, but people thought it was my hair.😁💚💚💚
@@thatgreenvegan I would give it a try and see how mine will turn out to be
@@njidekaeberechukwu6789 You should, just practice with larger braids. You don't need to have alot of braids. They were pretty full. Good luck Sis.💚💚💚
I did my own butterfly locs after watching your video! I do my toddler daughters hair twice a day, yet neglect my own with wigs. My dads a rasta and I always wanted to try the look without committing. My friend paid £600 for locs at the salon, they looked great but i just cant be spending that now, baby comes first. I’ve never used crochet needle before, cant believe how easy it is! So thank you! My partner loves them! I do too. ❤❤❤❤
Isabel recorded this where her phone and her demonstration was so amazing and better than what I have seen recording down with the camera. Why does she not have more subscribers😡 Her work her talents are so amazing.
Her tutorial was so clear and on point I know when I install this hairstyle it will come out amazing like hers.
Thank you Isabel❤️
Girly, I’m 13 and my usual stylist is cheap (around $50) but she is SUPER heavy handed so I literally started binging tuts and I never rlly found a good one but yours, yours was rlly helpful, now I do my sisters and friends when I have free time.
Absolutely! I have a bag of all types of hair in my closet lol I've been doing my own hair for years and I save so much money.
Yess !! We can use the saved money for gas or something 😂😂😂
Yesssss I do my own and other people's hair and I don't charge those prices.
@@isabelbaba Amen! Add groceries to the list because these high prices here in California ain't no joke. 🤷🏾♀🤣🤣
Grocery bill and my car insurance went up so I have do my own hair for now.
Omg I love it but gurl i don't think I can do it on my own. If it took you 9 hours, it will take me 12 days to finish 🤣🤣🤣🤣 but honestly, you killed it. I absolutely love it
Thank you so much babes !!! Your words mean a lot 🥹
Girl, THANK YOU! It's been SO long since I got my hair done bc I simply couldn't afford it. I'm a single mom, and all my money goes to bills and my kids. About to run to the beauty supply and get this head done!! Mamas deserve to feel pretty, too!
Thank you! You just make it look easy and real.
I never have interest in braiding at all but I found myself in Canada where braiding is very expensive and I have kids and I have no one baby sit my kids to go make my hair.
Thank God to wonderful UA-camrs like her. I can braid my hair and my daughter's hair!
God bless you girl! Yoyure video gave me courage and confidence to try, and I was finally able to install my own faux locs! You're a queen for empowering other queens!
❤ I have been watching this video finally had TIME to do yhis saved me 300 bucks THANK YOU. Yes i still will use my stylist. However 300 $ for this id nuts! Thankful for you pretty lady!!!!!
You are so welcome!
@@isabelbaba❤
Omgeeee! You are a life saver! Im going to try this hopefully Sunday. This $140 to $200 for crochet is killing me and learning to do it myself is a must at this point. Thank you❤
Women out here are charging $500-1200 (don’t get me started on the maintenance cost) for this style in my area. I was able to install the mermaid locs I made myself using your method in 4.5 hours. Thank you so much for this ❤
Girl do you sell said mermaid locs !!!?👀👀👀
@@isabelbabaI just started making them but want to start selling them soon.
If you start selling em, let me know!!!
I definitely did my own box braids with added hair. It wasn’t perfect but it will do. Thanks for sharing the tutorial.
It doesn't have to be perfect as long as you are comfortable with it.
😂😂😂
I cannot express my gratitude for this video enough! I didn’t even need to search for other methods, yours was quick and easy to follow and got the hang of it after just one loc. I look gorgeous and for only $100. THANK YOU SO MUCH
This makes me so happy to hear!!!!
Thank you sm I payed this girl $75 for my hair and it became loose really fast so I had to re do it myself this really helped now my hair looks bomb ty so much 💓
Yayyyy I’m glad I could help!🥹❤️
The best tutorial and definitely by far the easiest…Thank youuuuuuuu…Starting on my own head first then building me a clientele for sure…Already braid and do crochet styles but do them with the illusion boxes because on other channels they be doing them so much more complex and I promise you that this doesn’t get any easier…Appreciate you!!!!🥰♥️🥰
….plus my daughter definitely wears these and pays well over 200 so I gotta make sure to get this together
Girlllll this is so me. I had to quickly learn how to do knotless braids because baby I was not paying $200 for a style that only last about 4 weeks. Good job boo!
❤️ new subbie.
Knotless!? Girl imma need that tutorial from you asap!😂😂 thank you so much though girl 🥺❤️
Me currently 😂
200 not bad
@@shazardmohammad6139 you’re right it’s not at all I just hate how old these type of braids get so fast so I don’t think it’s worth it.
@@shazardmohammad6139 not at all, especially when ppl pay $200+ for wigs along and then another 150-$250 for the install only for it to last for 2 weeks at most
Girl thank you thank you thank you. This ha been the simplest tutorial I have seen and I’ve been scrolling for hours ! Def under 100 bucks and a few hours. About to be my go to style !
It’s SO easy, it hurts me when I see women spending a bag on a really cheap style 😩
Awwzswa

Yeassssss thank you
I'm 15 years old and I'm trying to learn to braids my hair myself because I know that braid salons outside of Africa are SO MUCH expensive. But here I'm struggling with parting my hair🙉
Great video it really helped me !
I used this method to do my locs and while it was time consuming. It was cost efficient and well worth it
Yes! I’ve been doing my own hair for years. Best go to style, I love kima braid ocean wave, passion twist, boho hippie locs/braids. Very versatile & love your lashes 😍! Never seen them in colors before.
Thank you queen!!!!
Just saved me $425!! - thank u 🙏🏾 ❤ What’s so funny is, I’ve had 4 packs of those same Bobbi Boss Nu Locs hair tucked away for over a year!! But the passion twist pack I have is a different brand, but still would work. I sure appreciate your authenticity & lookin’ out for those of us who aren’t celebrities & can’t afford these high (ass) prices, Lol 😂👍🏾🥰 We still want to look good too!! You’re providing a great service for lots of ppl…. Keep up the good work!
This comment means so much to me ! Thank you for taking the time to write it ❤️
This was so good to watch - the easiest I've come across. I agree with you about paying $200+ for this
Awesome tutorial. If you're obsessive about your parts being straight or handling your hair gently, it's nice to be able to do your own hair.
I am going to try this. You way looks so much easier. I tried this a long time ago and it took all day. People liked it but I didn't because my parting sucked. THANK YOU for sharing your technique! ❤🙏🏽
There videos on parting I even watched and learned to part even better on my own head now.
@@dorib.3367 thank you! I definitely need to sit back and teach myself because I twist my hair up all the to get the moisture in my hair but it doesn't look professional or presentable at all. I be looking like Pookie and Ray Ray🙋🏽♀️...lol..and I want to look like Janet Jackson from Poetic Justice🤷🏽♀️! 😁🙏🏽❤
This tutorial was amazing!!! I'm totally trying this out next 😍
You did a really good job! I tried ONCE gave up after like 15 minutes of struggling... and see CLEARLY I was missing a step in the process. I'm going to commit to TRYING before the summer ends. 🤦🏾♀️
Yessss update us when you try again!!!
u just taught me more in under 10 minutes i’m speechless- best believe i’m gonna try this
Girl you looked good even with the singles on your natural hair❤️
Look… my jaw was on the ground the entire video!!! This is the best video I’ve seen on this!!! I LOVE this look!!!! ✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼
OK Made it through the video! Isabel you are my new favorite! You gave me hope to try my own faux locs this weekend. And shout out to your cousin cause those lashes were fire!
Girl THANK YOU. these girls over here gatekeeping fake dreadlocks like... Ugh. It's so frustrating thank you for not being a crab
I love this tutorial. You explained and showed your technique so well!! You gave me the confidence to really try this and I can’t wait. Your hair came out really cute! I love a great hair tutorial and this is one of the best if seen in a while!
Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot 🥺❤️
I agree! She has given me the confidence to feel like I can really do my whole head by myself❤
How did yours turn out
I just had my 13yr old send me the video that she was looking at so I can see what she’s doing. We just left the hair store, so she’s going to try doing this on her hair this weekend. She bought a hair mannequin with some of her birthday money and she’s been practicing. I’m glad I watched this because she asked me to do the braids for her first. Looks like just a little patience and this is very doable.
Very doable !! You got this !!!
I like the messy look too, makes it look really natural. Great job!! 👍🏽
I'm so excited, I want to loc up for real but I thought I would start with the faux locs so I can get used to the style. I'm so thankful for your video. You made it look so easy. I do my own hair so if some one can teach then I can learn. Thanks again 🙋🏾♀️
Girl! THANK YOUUU! I used and made bigger locs, but your technique and explanation made it so simple! I’ve never ever done my own hair until now and this has me saving money and feeling empowered af! 🙌🏾🖤🙌🏾🖤
I’m so happy to hear that !🥹🥹🥹
I just brought the hair I’m gonna do this hairstyle this weekend! I’m only 17 and I’m going to be starting college soon and learning how to do my own hair will help me save money! Thanks for the tutorial 💗
You're a Goddess! My daughter wants these locs. Although we have a Natural Loc company and Natural Haircare Company, I know nothing about them and she insists I install them. 😁😋 Gratitude I'm very confident I will score high on this assignment 🤣🙏🏽🥰
Subscribed and will definitely view your content. Great energy and spirit 💫
Aww thank you so much!!! I so appreciate your kind words!! It’s honestly way easier to install on someone else!!
Girl yayyyssss! I’m a bit older and was like Chile even the struggle bus is low on gas ! I got me some faux locks and imma try this ! Will keep you posted
It’s always great to do your own hair yes but it’s tiring on the hands 🙌 but if you have someone to help you it makes your life better. I’m definitely gonna do this one day tho
This is the best tutorial I have seen so far. Your lashes are adorable!!!
I’m willing to learn whatever I need to learn in order to save myself $300-$400 dollars. Yeah, there’s nothing wrong with paying for hair service, but if you can do it yourself is way more better. If the people that work doing this have a problem with that, then that’s shady AF.
I totally agree
Excellent, I usually burn the loc when I finish it; but now I will use the hair stray ( glued) in the can instead. Thanks for the hair tips. 👑👑♥♥♥
man you made that look so easy im definitely going to try again .. and i really like the fact that you just wrapped the braid with the kinky hair because its so hard crochet the braid INTO THE LOC like some ppl do , i struggled so bad … THANK YOU ❤️ this my sign to start doing my own damn hair 😂
Okay gurllll your giving me Raven Simmon. Looks good, keep up the good work.
I did my own hair for college using this video ❤
You did an awesome job girl! I agree these women be paying too much for this hairstyle. I just paid $120 for my faux locs and I love them. I caught a special deal. But eventually I’m going to try these on myself.
So I bought the hair locs and spring twist and could not figure out how to wrap it..Very well explained thanks.
Yay!! I’m glad it could help!
The ABSOLUTELY BEST TUTORIAL EVER!!!!
Thank you queen!!!!
This took me fucking forever but I finally did it. Thanks for such a clear video. This was my first time
I’m so happy to hear it !!!
Girl!! This was an amazing video!!! The lashes look so good on you....but lets talk about THAT SKIN GLOW!!!!
Thank you so much!!! You’re the sweetest
Ty you so much for teaching this❤️❤️❤️
I Definitely save money doing this, wearing units, doing my own nails etc. 👍🏾😊

Omg omg omg omg this is literally like, THEEEEE best tutorial. Do u have a tutorial on goddess crochet locs? I feel like you'd make it so easy to explain. This was extremely helpful THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. BEFORE YOUR TUTORIAL, I THOUGHT I WAS NEVER GOING TO BE ABLE TO EXECUTE THIS. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I can definitely try crochet locs!!! I’m so happy this was helpful 🥹🥹🥹
Beautiful🫶🏽I’ll be trying these on my daughter, Your lashes are on point🥰
Let us know when you try on your daughter! And thank you so much!!! My lash tech is in my bio if interested 😘
I’ve been looking at tutorials for faux locs for a couple of YEARS now and your’s is the BEST. Thanks, chica🤎
You’re so SWEET!!!! Thank you so much 🥺❤️
Omg your video is the only video that has helped me . Been wanting to do the individual look for a while I've only done this crocheted in my cornrows . I'm so excited thank you 🙏🏾 sis
Yes, beautifully said and done. The eye lashes are beautiful and wonderful.
I love this video! I do my own faux locs, as well, but I’m DEFINITELY trying this style! It looks super easy and natural! You’re frickin hilarious, too! Liked and subscribed 😄
Please update us when you do them!! AWWW YOURE SO KIND, thank you for being here 🥺❤️
I will sugar pie !!! You’re so very welcome!
And the lashes are poppin! I forgot that lol!
Great job , we can save so mu ch money by installing our locks ourselves I installed faux Locs as eell
Yay!! I bet they turned out so pretty
I did mine and they came out amazing! I was shocked
Hey beautiful lm going to try this on my daughter hair. You made it look so simple and I gonna try short locks on my self. Lovely lashes. We're the locs heavy at all.
Aww thank you so much🥺🥺 and honestly no the locs were so light
@@isabelbaba thanks for responding I'm definitely going to try this style next. God bless love.
Thank you so much for your tutorial. I usually have to travel 2.5 hours to get my hair done. This will save me sooo much time and money.
$200 is not a bad price considering the amount of time it takes ! This was a great tutorial- you make it seem easy !! And it’s wayyyy better to save them bucks ✨❤️
$200 for LOCS??? I'm sorry thats soo much money just for hair. Where I live (in the UK) you'd never get anyone paying more than £130 ( $158.50) on hair unless its like to buy human hair or something like a wig install. Bye I'm feeling for u guys in the US lmaooo😭
It takes longer because you are doing it on yourself but this can take as less as two hours in a Salon and you get charged $200 ??? Most always do my hair and It is a great experience
I agree that it's not a lot. I made the mistake of criticizing the prices of other stylist until I became one!😉
And when you think about it, we "ALL" decide how much our "time", "knowledge" and "skills" are worth when we take ANY job whether it's $2 per hour or $20!!! WE decide our worth and not other people. I' ve learned the hard way that people pay for what they want. The same person that won't pay you will pay someone else more who knows what they are worth in most cases. We ALL have to know our own WORTH. And I am a "do it yourselfer" so pricing didn't come easy when something felt easy to do to me.😊
Great tutorial though!👍🏾
New sub. Cut my locks 2 years ago. I miss them so much!!! I've NEVER done my own hair. This looks super easy to do. Im gonna try... 🖤🌻
Wowww,Sis you did that! It looks fantastic! I just loc,'ed my hair recently myself & I love it. This was a very easy to follow tutorial. Keep sharing ur talents. Keep shining Queen! Love from New York ❤️
Thank you so much 🥺❤️
Why are people *deliberately* watching a *DIY HAIR VIDEO* knowing damn well they're never going to do it ,just to *comment* how they're not/get mad your helping us save money and be more self sufficient. Hate watching is so damn weird! *ESPECIALLY* on a hair tutorial! Anyways thanks for the tutorial I will definitely try this method!
I know girl, like I’m just tryna help 🥺🥺😂😂 when you try it let us know if it worked well for you💓
Ill try it near fall time
Thanks sis! This is a life saver. Very detailed.. love it
Girl you did that! Came out beautiful 😍
Thank you babe!!!
That sunset looked like cotton candy!!! Lol. So pretty
The video I was looking for and I find it 2 weeks AFTER I already installed my messed up faux locs lol. Loved this and thank you so much for uploading it. Your hair is beautiful
Awww this video will always be here if you need it!! Thank you for being here🥹❤️
Thanks for tutorial sis. You are so right. We been doing our own hair for generations. Your hair is gorgeous. 😍
Thank you for being here!🥹❤️
This was the best video tutorial on how to do faux locs short and simple thanks girl❤️
You made everything so clear I never knew how to loc or crochet until now ! Thank you !
It’s the caption for me.. thank you queen 👸🏽
Thank you for being here ❤️
@@isabelbabaYes of course ..
You popped up in my feed and YES to this tutorial your voice and explications are dope🌸 Lash’s are GIVING😍
THANK YOU BABE
Absolutely beautiful hair art. My problem may be the take down or removal part. Thank you for sharing.🙏🏽❤️✌🏾🌹👑
Please do a video showing how to properly remove those locs without damaging your own hair.
I’ve done something similar before and to take out I just parted it using my fingers to find and pull my hair out (and my hair is longer) and cut the braid. It kind of unravels and you just pull it out. Pretty easy!
tysm for the tutorial🫶🏽 also i love ur lashes!
Beautiful job....
You look GORGEOUS!!! Thank you soo much. I gonna get started now. If was a little unsure, but now nothing is holding me back.❤
Thank you beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You got this!!!
Thanks! You did a great job explaining and showing technique to do this hair style❤
Thank you so very very much for taking time out of your busy day. To share how to install locs. Greatly appreciated and your style is cute. Saves a lot of money. 💖💖
You’re so welcome!!!
need more subscribers, and more views! This vid is so helpful! Btw you look gorg😍I’ve never seen lash extensions like these but they are so pretty!!!
BABE you’re so kind , thank you so much for your kind words !!!!!🥺❤️
You are hilarious and so entertaining to watch. That's pretty much how I do mine, just different products. I've watched countless YT vids to put my technique together whereas your video puts it all nice and simply into one. Wish I'd seen this first lol.
Awww thank you!! I’m glad you enjoyed it🥺❤️
They look so good!!! I'm gonna try this on my daughter's hair! Thank's for showing the process. Love
Omg update us about how it looks!! ❤️ thank you for being here 🥹❤️
@@isabelbaba I sure will! Love
I’d love to try this style on my daughter’s hair. How long do you keep them in? What’s the process for taking them out?
I usually keep them in for no longer than 2 months and I posted a video recently about how to take them off!❤️
@@isabelbaba Great! Thanks! I’ll check it out ❤️
This is so pretty. Thanks for the tutorial.
Those eye lashes look natural and non distracting.
This style is so pretty 😍 thanks 😊
Thank you so much!!🥺❤️
Thanks for this. Where I live the girls charge $400 and up and don’t even do a good job like they use to when it was cheaper. And I love your method it’s easy. And i successfully did my hair myself ❤
