The Khyli Show Wow that's amazing!
The Khyli Show Also can you do my hair 😊
My first attempt to do box braids was a total fail, the braids were different sizes, parting was a mess. etc. But after watching this video, my second attempt came out 10 times better!! I'm not a pro but I saved $200!! Thank you mam!
me too lol my first time was horrible and im 13 but now my second try is better
+Nzinga Mair Every time you do you're hair, itll get better each time!
+Nzinga Mair You a girl what's yo insta im 13 too
MsFredericks my goal is to save $200 as well, I can only pray it comes out decent
MsFredericks OMG YOUR HAIR COLIR IS SO CUTE
As a bald white male in Australia watching this, I have officially come to the conclusion that as a result of Covid-19 I am very bored
Rhys Lewis LMAOO

No lies 😂😂🤭

Quarantine got me out here trying to do my own hair, after 4 weeks of just twists, Im happy this exists.

Same for me... did my own braids
So cute! Funny story when I was younger I thought black womens hair grew into braids. I was so confused to as why I had to braid my own hair but theirs was already braided.
jordan valdez - That’s the funniest comment I have read so far!!😂😂😂
My sons father who is white thought the Sam thing. When I met him I had braids further into the courtship. He was confused when he saw me without braids and then braids again after about three cycles of this he said he got up enough nerves to ask me about my hair. Ha ha he said he did not know what was going on. But he liked my natural hair best. He also washed my straightening comb too. Omg.
😂 😂 🤭... That's so cuteee😭
🙄
SAME 😂
I love that you deep conditioned and moisturized prior to braiding, That way the natural hair is more protected!
I just finished watching a braiding video of yours!
@@niasaraeeee aww thanks for watching!

Hey, since I would say you are more of a professional I would like to ask you a question. Do you think that braids, dreads etc are just for the African community? Or do you think it doesn't matter if the person male or female is African, Asian, European etc?
@@babyfire361 Box braids in this style and locs are more suitable for black people's hair because our hair is often more coarse and can handle the weight/tugging from the style. Our hair is usually dry, so we can keep the style for a longer time before it becomes oily. People of other races can get box braids, but they should learn about how to care for their braided hair, and also understand some history behind the styles. When you wear them, give credit to black people for creating them and call them their proper names. You may get some looks or some comments.
Also, thanks for the tip on soaking the hair in ACV. I noticed that everytime I braid my hair, it starts itching within days
Yes she gave awesome tips
حلوو مراا❤️❤️❤️🌹🌚💜

I don’t even have black hair I just watched this vid because the finished product looks gorgeous, she a whole queen. Also you gotta admire the skill. EDIT: yikes, I’m sorry for offending y’all, this is the way I intended my comment: I wasn’t trynna say that all African hair is the same, obviously, just like any other race, African hair is diverse with hair type. I said “Black hair” as in “African hair” not to invalidate the fact that there are many different hair types, but to give credit to black people. These are black hairstyles, not Asian, not white, not brown, BLACK hairstyles, I wasn’t trying to say that all black people have the same hair type, I was trying to say that these hairstyles belong to black people. Hope that cleared things up, sorry for my offensive comment !! Stay safe guys 🤎
Correction:
You don't have COARSE hair...black is a color not a hair type😊
As in African American hair lol. I didn’t mean color, I meant race. 😂 sorry it was confusing.
But if I were to talk about color, then yes I actually do have black hair lmao.
@@zaref17420
No you're the confused one as you seem oblivious to my previous statement...i knew you were referring to race when u said "black" hair...and again THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS AFRICAN AMERICAN HAIR...HAIR IS HAIR...which is why i corrected you and said COARSE...hair doesn't go by race/nationality or any other ignorant thing you can think of.
I know what you meant to say, it's all good girl! You should try box braids, I love see other races with them😍
Can we just take a minute to appreciate that perfect make up? 😻
Ok why am I STILL not understanding how you wrapped the hair around your real hair! I want to understand it so i can slay like you girl
me too
Alana exactly I just posted my comment because i don’t understand how she twisted them at the start of the braid ☹️ 💖
you can also braid you real hair then add the hair to it for more easier braiding
@@tiannapeoples7352 that's knotless box braids
Agreed. She didn’t really break it down into discrete, clear, ABC steps. She sorta did it by feel doing several steps at once. She added the synthetic hair while also doing the real hair separation and started braiding all together as one step, which is great when you know what you’re doing already. But I dont think I will do this right from just from this video. Other videos broke it all the way downnnn. But hers was helpful cuz she said 12 hours and im out. Not gonna do this myself 😂
I love how light it looks and not loaded with braids, very pretty.
This tutorial is everything 😭 I actually got my practice braid right on the first try. You are so good at explaining. I’m looking forward to doing my whole head soon. It’ll take time but I’m up for the challenge.
Hands down. The best hair stylist I've seen on UA-cam. I'm in awe. So informative 👏
you can use any type of vinegar. white vinegar works fine. also soaking all the hair will not destroy the hair. been doing it for years
My daughter asked for a complete set of braids. I’m not versed with this in the slightest. I thought I was going to have to spend like 200 dollars to get it done. This was so so helpful thank you.
Thank you for the tutorial! I started doing my own hair like 3yrs ago and it was the best decision I made myself. Thanks again
This turned out so beautifully!

This is the best box braids tutorial! After watching this video, I tried braiding my hair for the first time and love the result. They're not perfect but I saved hundreds of dollars going to the salon and feel so empowered by doing my own hair! Thank you for the great tutorial!!
I am sooooo glad that I found this video!! My daughter wanted box braids so badly. As you all know, it's expensive to go to a salon for this!! I just didn't have the money for this since we're on a tight budget. I did go to a salon and had a consult with them. The lady was bradding a little girl's hair. I was watching her as she was talking to us. I was like, I can learn to do this!! I learned how to corn row so there was no reason I couldn't learn to do this! So I searched for some videos to help me out. Your video was by far, the best!! Thank you so much. I'm saving all kinds of money and my daughter is happy.
I am so glad this video help you and your daughter! Thank you for sharing
The end product, WOW!🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Let me just say though, your natural hair is gorgeous too!😍
Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful work! Could you please do another tutorial for beginners in slow motion?
Whelp you're the best hair lady I've ever seen
Eibhlin true
ness theman u
This looks stunning. The braids, the color, the length, the model. All beautiful! I have always been such a huge fan of the box braid style!
Girl u teach me how to do braids!! Try for years! Nothing!! Once I saw the vinegar trick...this girl is a beast!!!! 💯💯💯💯💯😍😍😍😍😍Never got out til now. Great teacher!!! U go girl😘😘😘
it takes 12 hours? your arms must have died. the final result is really awesome!
agnieszka van heirreweghe it depends how fast ur able to do it, my hairdresser does it in 4hours
Bevine Muntwari it's not the same when someone does for you then doing it yourself

it's a fuckin sacrifice. and a living example of "no pain no gain" and "Pretty, hurts".
I'm 12 and I really want to learn how to do my own box braids this video was really helpful thanks
I know for me I could never get the grip right so I did the rubber band method instead. Worked great.
i can do them for you, where do you live?
Samara Love I sincerely hope you were joking.
@Samara Love
i really hope you’re joking
Same
Wow! 2 years later and this video was very helpful for me!! Thank you for sharing!!!!
I have watched numerous hair braiding tutorials and this is by far the best ! And perfect camera angles too!
I can't wait to do it on my own hair. Saves me money and I can feel how tight I want it. And by the way love the color. I'm going to get some ombre hair. I'm gonna get black, noen green, and black, blue, light blue bundles.
Your braids look gorgeous! Excellent video!!
This is exactly what I'm hoping to do. I saw this hair a couple of years ago and knew I wanted to braid with this soon. I'm hoping to do this in about a month's time. Thank you for the tutorial. I'm going to try to do it myself but I may just have someone help me out.
I was about ready to quit doing my own hair. Now that I've seen your technique I'm confident to try it again.
It took 8 hours for me to do mine My fingers hurt.
Yass queen. You should feel proud
8 hours only??!!!!
Only 8h ? :o
Per section of hair, what takes the most time? Is it planting the hair extension to the root? Is it the act of physically braiding down?

I've watched a thousand times and still don't understand the loop part 😶
OMG me eitheeer
Me too
I had 200 braids. If they are thinner, they look even better. Insta - life_of_alise
You will get it. Just practice...You will get the hang of it👌🏾👍🏾
Emira Frazier me too and I have next to me full bag of braids in different colours about 10-13 packs :( ☹️ I really want to be able 💖
Your natural hair is so beautiful! You can tell it’s healthy and soft. Thank you for the tutorial!
I'm so late but this was amazing. I just discovered braiding by splitting my hair in half and weaving it in that way. I'm inspired to do another set after seeing this slanted parts.
"3 quadrants" that cracks me up. Like if you get it 😂😂
Ha ha... I get it! It's hard thinking of the right words when teaching something so confusing... 3 sections would of works as well! 😫😂😂😂
I literally pondered on that. Then after a while I paused to video and went to make sure I didn't mishear or miss another parted section of hair 😂

since she was using math words it reminded me that I got a math test tmr so I gotta study💀thanks💀💀💀
thank you SOOOO much for sharing your technique. I am currently braiding my hair and I couldn't understand why my braids didn't looks as tight. So I tried this method and it looks a lot better! :) yaas and the hair colour in here is so beautiful. The slow mo also really helped!!!!
I have been using this method for the last 5 years, the best video ever.
Your tutorials are by far the best out there ! Especially your hair tutorials ! Thanks to you I can now do flat twists and cornrows ! Box braids are definitely next on my list :) keep them tutorials coming please !!!!
You are truly beautiful. The slay is real
Btw You're doing it so CLEAN! Love it!
Your braids are absolutely gorgeous, I'm drooling!
Your brownskin is gorgeous 😍
Yes ikr!!
And her face
That part at 4:42... no just no my brain can't handle that. I don't know WTH is going on. LOL I love the results though.
RIGHT! I was thinking of "attempting" to do it but I got lost there.
Put ur speed at 0.5 xxx
Feel ya
Aimeé Sanders Thanksss. Way better .
It looks like she actually has 1/2 of the extension hair (the one she has as a seperate leg) and then 2/4 (the parts she adds to her real hair)? That's the part I got confused at anyway! Because she says 3/4 and 1/4.
This was my first time trying box braids. The method was so easy! I am getting many compliments.
Quick and easy, and not boring to watch at all thank u girl
My daughter said "wow" and I thought she was saying that because I was showing her how perfectly you did the back of your hair by yourself and instead she says"her scalp looks so painful"
😩😩😩
Well assure your daughter that my scalp was completely fine! This is the perk of braiding your own head... You don't do it too tight.
+MariaAntoinetteTV I'll let her know 🤗🤗 also thanks on the great tutorial. I was able to braid my own hair and my daughters hair by watching you.
+MariaAntoinetteTV OK6
+MariaAntoinetteTV are you left handed?
YOUR NATURAL HAIR IS SO PRETTY
Thank you for the close ups! It can be difficult to see how to start braiding in tutorials. You did a really great job! Thank you so much. I like that color too. They should call it purple smoke. ^^
this was the best video I found on box braiding, so clear and clean. love it
OMG, I ACTUALLY DID IT. THANK YOU SO MUCH, TOOK ME OVER 14 HRS TO DO IT, BUT IT WAS WORTH IT. YOU ARE AMAZING

I love the technique you used & also I’m in love with the color beautiful 😍😍😍💯💯💯

Omg I live for that ombré color I need to do this 😂
Just came from ReacThing’s video and I wanted to say your speed with those braids are amazing! You look absolutely stunning!
Loved this tutorial helped me so much to do my few box braids for my cosplay ❤❤❤ thank you
oh my god, they are really beautiful, you have a super special talent for this: 3
This is absolutely amazing. Your a good teacher. thanks
You saved my life with this tutorial. THANK YOU!!!
Dang girl you did soo good , I’ll be trying this method on my back to school hairstyle! Thank you ❤️
I love it!! My daughter loves when I braid her up and we just picked up some ombré purple and pink so we about to try this technique tmw thanks for posting!!
I'm going to keep practicing until I can do this on myself and have it look as good as yours. thank you so much for uploading.
You are an angel I have been struggling with sizing my braids omg!!
I would definitely recommend you doing that to my hair!!!Love box braids!!!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️them.Wish I had them!
Watching this makes me feel like I can do it 🤣🤣🤣.. this is the best explanation I've seen... instant replay was awesome... if you can just out some slow mo, that would help me too.. lol... but seriously though... awesome job
Wow I really love your natural hair they are beautiful 😄💗
GIIIIIRL! This is a piece of cake the way you explain it! THANK YOU! I'm running to the beauty supply to buy me some hair ♥️♥️♥️‼️
This video is the reason I started doing my own hair a while back. Funny to run into it again years later!
Best tutorial I've found, thank you for this amazing post!
That instant replay is what I needed in my life! #OnRepeat
These braids turned out soo beautiful!! 😍😍 I'm def giving these a try!!
I've loved box braids since I was a squirt, but I don't have strong hair to pull it off. Wigs would help for sure, but I ordered some hair for weaving instead of the wigs and once they come in I intend to try this anyway. I won't let my hair hold me back from this adorable and beautiful style.
You are KILLING IT with the tutorials! Thank you. :-)
Thank you! I'm just give you all what y'all want! ☺️
We appreciate it for sure! I've been obsessed with invisible cornrows since your tutorial. Don't know why I never tried to learn the technique before... it is so easy!
Lord!! I didn't get that technique!! Beautiful though!!
