    Tip: when you're done styling, would you provide a still shot or a slow mo edit of how it looks up close. The fast movements doesnt really show your work. Thank you!

  • @Cencen_cancan
    @Cencen_cancan 6 років тому +3

    Tried this out and turned out nicely! Doing it too tight at the top was not a very good idea, but got complements for months with people thinking they were real box braids!

    • @Osunshine87
      @Osunshine87 6 років тому

      Hello Cindy, I did this pattern and style last night and I also braided my cornrows too tight. Did you do anything special to get some relief or did you just wait it out?

    • @Cencen_cancan
      @Cencen_cancan 5 років тому

      Osunshine87 I pulled out a few of the crochet hair and tugged on my real hair carefully for some slack. Then I put them back in and put the hair up into a comfortable position, and added grease if needed. A part of it was the hair was heavy and creating some serious tension

    • @Osunshine87
      @Osunshine87 5 років тому

      I removed some of the braids in different spots all over and rubbed my scalp with grease and peppermint oil, and the cooling sensation helped a lot too. I was just about ready to take the whole style down 😂. Thanks a bunch for the tips!😊

    @ceceyamyre5514 5 років тому

    Love the tutorial, I been wanting to do the crochet box braids for awhile. I have very fine hair so doing singles would put to much strain on my hair and cause it to be sore and break off. So this was perfect so I can have them look as natural as possible. I did mine and love it, and have gotten so many compliments. Some people cant believe their not singles until I show them the middle of my head 😅

    • @karladburns
      @karladburns 7 років тому

      Lisa Phillips-McCarley Thank you for replying. Check out this pattern, I don't like the corn rolls going straight back. I found this while look for a different way. ua-cam.com/video/EdAX7BGMPPQ/v-deo.html
      I will be doing my mother's and then my locs with these patterns. 😁😊

    • @lisaphillips4040
      @lisaphillips4040 7 років тому

      Karla Burns i agree thats was my only problem my daughter has very long hair so after time the braids would come loose in the back even though I had them connected the pattern is key depends on your head shape and the hair length we used like three different ones before we found one that works...
