    So Glamfam, as a cosmetology instructor, I see areas where people tend to struggle on a regular. One of those areas is braiding, especially french braiding. I find that often people want to jump right into french braiding, without first learning the basics. That is why I made this in depth tutorial for beginners to help them learn how to french braid, better! As always, please feel free to leave your thoughts and requests in the comment section down below.
    Until next time Glambassadors,
    take care, God bless, and stay Glam! You know I love you boo!

      That was my only complaint about the video. He did such a great job taking his time and showing/talking us through his hair braiding tutorial but then at the end he doesn't show us how to end the braid. I just put a small hair rubber band around it a bunch of times. But would have been nice to see a professional do it and share any tips they might have in how to finish it at the end.

    I’m a mom now and have no choice but to learn how to do a French braid and after trying and watching several videos and feeling like a failure, I don’t think I need to see another video after this. Very patient and easy to understand method & explanation. Thank you for the help sir, I’m going to practice, practice, practice 😀. Love & blessings to you ❤️

    I would like to say THANK YOU so much for posting this video! For the longest time I have had challenges with the French braid. Your clear instructions with helpful tips helped me make my first successful French braid. The speed at which you taught also helped me to adjust and repeat as necessary. Also your calm teaching voice also helped ease my anxiety. Thank you for sharing your gift of teaching and style!

    This is excellent. A big sign of the professionalism shown here, is how the stylist gets right down to the business at hand, without a look of chatter beforehand. He also anticipates potential problems showing how to avoid them as he goes. Kudos!

    I can regular braid no problem. Learned that in Boy Scouts many many moons ago. Doing it with hair is the same as doing it with rope. But I’ve never known how to French braid and finally UA-camd it. This is the first video listed and sir, you’re a great teacher. Now I can’t wait to try it on my 3 year old. Thank you, sir.

    @GetGlamFam I have been braiding my kids' and my husband's hair for years. 21 years, actually, and your tutorials are the best I have seen in the years of searching for braiding tutorials to improve myself. My braiding has literally improved immediately because of your explanations throughout your videos.
    Before, I was "Okay" with the outcome of the looks, but now I am extremely happy. I even feel more confident when braiding someone other than my kids' and husband's hair. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us 💙

    You’re a great teacher. I tend to want to start over when I mess up.
    I teach drums and in music you can’t fix mistakes because something else is coming next. You can only focus on what’s next. You make fewer mistakes the more you practice.
    So there you have it: braiding hair is like music- keep going if you make a mistake or miss a strand
