- It's the best time for protective styles! Watch me as I install my mini braids on my type 4 natural hair. This style took me about 6 hours to complete, but it's worth it because I'm planning on keeping this style for quite some time. It's super cute and there's so many styles you can do! All the products I used are listed in the video. If you have any questions, leave them down below!

PSA: Guys, I'm aware that the takedown process is going to be lengthy. If I didn't wanna take them out, I would've never installed them. There's no regrets here, just happy that I chose a protective style that will keep my hands out of my hair for a while and at the same time promote growth.
Great job Keke!!! You're very detailed & I know you will take them down like the soilder you are lol
@@lameshahale2990 thank you so much! ❤
I don't believe the take down will be that bad due to it being your Natural hair.
Fake hair gets knotted in our hair,you don't have to worry about cutting hair out. So you good👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I love mini braids. The takedown is just part of the process 🤷🏽♀️
Beautiful
All I’m seeing in the comments is “good luck with the take down”.... some of us don’t mind styling our hair... especially when it’s worth it 😌
FACTS SIS!!!!!!
FAX! Not to mention, if she wanted, she could have someone else do it. Keeping your hair healthy and protected is worth it
i keep thinkin, "man imagine the braid out on that!" gorg
If your above the age of 21 you probably already know the struggle back from the zillions days hahaha
All those comments make me want to do my hair like this because I KNOW I will be unique. Everybody else are too afraid of the take down to do it.
Nobody gonna talk about her looking like keke palmer???...
I was just getting ready to comment on that!!😊
And max from living single
She almost sound like her too
Gabby gabbi gabbie THANK YOU😩❤️how we got the keke who look like keke!!
Right!
can we talk about how beautiful you are 😭❤
Thank you so much! 😊
She is very stunning
Super gorgeous!
I was thinking the same thing. Her makeup was on point, but when I saw her without I was omigod, look at that chocolate girl magic!
I live in mini braids. They're great for length retention. I'm edging on bra strap and my hair has never ever been that long. And my hair is healthy and thick.
How long do they take
Keti Meng Awesome. I just reached end bra strap length. It’s crazy how this 6 month ‘no comb challenge’ really worked for me.
Keti Meng how do you wrap it up at night
abrea guerrero if you still don’t know you wrap them like you would a silkpress
Keti Meng Im next
To me this is a good style for someone like me who does not want to lock their hair but kind of wants that natural look. Thank you for the tutorial .
That's exactly what I was thinking. I kinda want locs but kinda don't lol, so this might be a happy compromise
Girllll. How do you get your parts that straight by yourself? 😩😩😩
Thats what i need to know. No way would my hair look that good if i did it myself.
Angles, front and back mirrors help
Girl when my hair was longer I would only worry about the front the back I didn’t care about and it still looked nice
It's the part of doing my hair that I just can't seem to master. Same with twisting/braiding the back. I don't know how to braid my hair from an upside down angle with my hands. The strands always get lost and confused. I know they say just practice, but how can I practice something that I don't even know the proper technique for? -_-
Kurly Kayla
That’s so true, I was trying to braid my hair in the back and I think I did a three strand twist and I don’t even know how to do a three strand twist.
Confession: I rewatch this video EVERY TIME I need motivation to do my mini braids.
I've started putting my both of my daughter's hair in mini braids and they love it. Weekly washing, deep conditon every two weeks and taken down every 6 weeks. Takedown takes 1 day per head and they are retaining length and their hair is thick and healthy!
I did this style for the first time last week. I started at midnight thinking that it would only take me 1 hour. I almost cried as I didn't finish until 4:30 or 5am.
Sis you played yourself 😂😂
1 hour though😂
Whoever is reading this Jesus Christ loves you💛
HE LOVES YOU TOO SIS!! 💛✨
Keep spreading the Gospel truth, God sees your heart 🙏🏼😍
I promise I had to take a second look
Amen. He loves you too love 🙏🏾❤️
You too bestie💚
He loves you too friend!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Maxine Shaw!!!??? You did a wonderful job and your hair looks good. Tfs 💜💜💜
Yes!! #livingsingle
That's who she reminds me of, too.
Lol thank you so much! ❤
Maxine Shaw Attorney at Law. Ride the maverick!
@Ell ... Lmaoooo
Everybody think I got all a lot of thick natural hair but when I do this to my head, I'm all scalp 🤣😂
Keke J, actually a trick for take-down hold several braids together and comb through from ends going up, GENTLY. I promise you it works and is not damaging just try is with like four braids at a time. We do this style in the Caribbean regularly.
Wow I’m from Jamaica and never seen or heard of that. Thanks for the tip
Yh a lot of african hairstylists do this too cos they're always in a rush
@D, thanks for the tip I just did mini braids on my head and was wondering the best way for take down.
I do this and if you are gentle it doesn't hurt the hair at all and is quite speedy
Francès Sgfrom ♥️♥️♥️
Absolutely gorgeous! This is the kind of protective styling I love seeing naturals do. Using our own hair to create gorgeous styles. 💖🌸
yes, I agree, naturals need to start embracing these styles more.
Thank you so much! ☺
I agree
10000% facts
When you said “it’s not perfect” I almost died. This is beautiful!!
Girl you are stunning!
Super cute as always! I wish ppl would stfu talking about the takedown sheesh, anybody who has ever had braids are aware.
Right! lol and thank you so much!
I'm not sure why everyone is commenting on the takedown like it doesn't take a minute to take down smaller box braids or individual crochet braids...anyways SUPES cute hair!! I need to do something to my hair....hmmm
Loryn periodttttt
yea my parts wont look crisp like that lol
Danie Baby lolllll SAME
Okay y’all it’s just like getting box braids which we all have had (most of us) this is nothing it’s cute easy and promotes growth which is what we want soooo yes I would do these
I've worn my hair like this when I was a teenager and several times as an adult (56 now). Absolutely love it. I've had to do them a little larger now because the takedown....yeah. To freshen the look and keep them in longer, I would redo the braids around the edges after three weeks.
This is my go to hairstyle whenever I don’t have any ideas for my hair. Since I was thinking about twists I realized that the twists don’t always last on my 4b hair but the mini braids never fail!!! Very cute 🥰
Thank you so much! ☺
These are beautiful!!! Please please don't forget the takedown video!!! Thinking about trying this!!
Thank you! ☺ I will be making a video on that!
My hair is not spongy and curly can you please tell me what type of hair do I have
That braid out is going to be bomb
loving your skin and accent and voice😍😍😍. adds to how gorgeous you already are🌋🌋
I’m so amazed by how clean these parts are 😍 wow this is super cute!
Thank you! ❤
Just tried these on my hair....they DID NOT come out as cute as yours but I love the style and will be doing it again as a go-to protective style.
I Love how this video is still relevant 3 years later ♥️ Beautiful work sis!
I clicked because I thought you were Maxine Shaw. And while you are not her, I was not disappointed
She do look like Erika Alexander
Woow !! I never thought about this!! Thank you so much for sharing this! I will definitely try this. With this protective style, you can deep conditioner, wash it and it can even last for a month to two! This is a great protective
Thank you! 😊
LOVE 💖 this! So inspirational to see 4c styling that does not require fake hair and I can wear to work. And it lasts a long time. Beautiful
I usually do mini twists but I’m thinking that I should try to be brave and do the braids lol
You don't need no ring light cause your smile lights up the room! Your patience has inspired me to do twists again!
Very cute!! Your hair is super thick!
Also u remind me of Keke Palmer so it was funny u said ur name is keke lol okay bye
Lol thank you ☺
I have mini braids in right now. I'm doing my own challenge of 12months of mini braids (maybe twists here and there). I actually twist the ends, so I kinda have both at the same time. I plan to just keep it that way because I get more stretch with the majority of it braided from the roots. I'm trying to retain as close to 6 inches this year if possible and thicken my edges. Wigs and braids with added hair pull out my edges, so I just want a low manipulation and low tension hairstyle. I plan to keep each set in at least 2 weeks at a time minimum, 1 month max.
Me too shld we compare notes.
I definitely think that you'll reach your goal! I would love to hear your results!
You have a wonderful challenge going on for yourself.... I love it
I plan on doing the same. Just finished half my head will do the rest tomorrow.
Lol wow a year in a style ? Y’all do a lot for growth but hey it’s not me
I wanted to come back and say thank you⚘ I have been natural since middle school and went through a mini twist phase but that has not seemed to work on my changing hair now. I did this style last night and I feel so relieved and encouraged. I have a style that is cute and fits my busy lifestlye.
No problem! I’m glad you’re encouraged! Our hair is beautiful, even when we think it’s not
@@KekeJ 🤗 amen!
I accidentally started doing mini braids lol and I love it. I wear them under my wig and it’s such a great protective style for me because I feel obligated to leave them in. When I do the usual cornrows I tend to take them out quickly, but because of the time it takes me to install and take down the mini braids, I end up leaving them in for 2-4 weeks, which makes it a great protective style for me.
I wear them them during the week for work and gym, then I throw my wig over them for the weekend. Best thing ever
You look like the actress Ericka Alexander aka Maxine Shaw from Living Single. Which is a great thing cuz she is beautiful. Oh and your hair is lovely. I wish parting my hair myself could be like yours. So neat and straight.
I thought I was the only one that thought she resembled her as well. Just beautiful.
I love that show 😍🧡😩
Soon as I take my mini twist down Im putting some in! Love em!
Thank you! 😊
This looks amazing. Going to try this style for the first time this evening. Praying it comes out great. With this heat and hair, I can't take it.
Thank You, you just made my nite! for my 4a/b fine hair! Probably made my whole year! I been wearing mini twists to and was going with that as a protective style for the whole winter. But my hair is very coily even when in twists, regardless of using gel, so if I want to spray it with water or dare wash it and try to leave them in, NOT it unravels. I clicked on your video and the first minutes in just took two down and braided them and everything you said about the benefits I recognized immediately. I can tell this wont unravel if I want to daily moisturize them or even wash them in the shower! And I bet it wont be so prone to all the fly-aways in between I suffer with. I also love how much longer and stretched they look, full sebum coverage is my goal so TY!
her parts are so flawless i could never
It sure looks perfect to me! I love it! This looks like something I can definitely try on my short natural hair. Thank you for the tutorial! 🙌😍
Girl you did the thing with these mini braids. Love it ❤️
thank you!!
Finally because my hair loves braids better than twists 😍
Omg I used to do my hair like this when I was a kid it was my favorite hair style.....
Its nice to see this style again
Fabulous job.👏🏿So neat moisturized and perfect great protective style for hair growth. The take down will take some time but so worth it. Thanks for sharing🤞 love the body and movement🤗 Slayed!!
Beautiful results ❤️
BEAUTIFUL😍 Yes I Love these on type 4 hair and you are so pretty😚🙌🙌🙌
Thank you so much!! ☺
I absolutely love this style. Looks so good on you! ❤
She's gorgeous. I love this 😍😍
I love this!!! I'm a fan of mini twists myself. When you do this often, the takedown isn't terrible at all guys....aaaaannnnnd you can always get someone to help 😊
Love this style on you! I usually do mini twists, instead of braids. I’ll give this a try when my hair gets longer!! 💗💗
Your skin is GORGEOUS sis!
You are so beautiful and patient with your hair. The end result is perfection ❤❤❤
I think these look so much better when they're not new. Beautiful job.
You're beautiful, your hair is healthy and beautiful... I can't wait to try this style!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Your parts are precise! It looks great. Just did mine yesterday. I love it!
Oooh these look so cute!!! Also your makeup looks bomb!!!!
Thank you so much!
I love it. I’ve been wearing mini twist for a while and I want to switch up. Thanks for sharing.😊
You are maaaad pretty! These braids are super cute ❤
I wanted to do mini braids in my hair without adding hair and when I googled videos on it, yours stuck out the most to me. I LOVE your hair 😍
In the winter/fall months, I switch between mini twist and mini braids, a bit smaller. I absolutely love it!
In love with your intro girly🥰❤️😌so unique and so great
It's beautiful and makes sense. It's a style you can keep in for a while and also style other ways. And it's your hair. 😍🤩
Thank you for giving raw video, letting us know that it does take time. Can't wait to do them on my girl's hair♥️
I love it! I am going to do this style on my hair tomorrow
You know what I'm thinking about putting this in my hair i just took out my box braids and need a new protective style so cant wait to try 😍😍😍
Wow this is beautiful! I've been doing mini twists time to time for a while, but i'm definitely trying mini braids next time. I think I would like the extra stretch from the braids.
Wow! Both you and your hair are beautiful! 😍
This is going to be so useful for when my hair grows longer again. This is beautiful
You look so much like Maxine from “living single” with these braids 😍
Did these last night with your help! Love them. My husband also loves them
