Did she really just braid her hair in a turtle neck and leather pants!!?? Hoooowww. My hair brading attire consists of an old t shirt, no bra, and raggedy sweats.
mscmcollins85 😂😂😂I can relate
😂😂😂
I can relate an it takes me way longer
LMAOOOO! Girl I feel you
Mine too😂😂
I am embarrassed to admit this but I am a 40 yr old white woman that didn’t know what box braids were. I read an article today that mentioned them so I wanted to know more. I now have soooooo much respect for the amount of time/work that goes into the hair on women of color. This was such a well done video, I watched the whole thing enthralled. You are absolutely gorgeous, and even tho I might not be your target market I am so glad I took the time to learn more about other women in the world! 💪🏽💃🏽🥰
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😌
😁😍😍
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This comment made my heart happy :)
You know, I'm getting real tired of coming on here n seeing you and other youtubers making stuff look so easy, giving me a large boost of confidence to try stuff only to have me looking crazy in these streets! 😂😂😂 Your final look was magical by the way❤❤❤
Say it again girl
😂😂😂😂😂😂 ikr!!?
😂😂 🙌🏽. It’s happened to me many a time 😭 . Now I just watch to watch lol.
@@deey132 That's exactly what I do 😂😂😂 just watching for the sake of watching.
You are right, is not as easy as it looks
Im just here cause i like the way Black women look with braids😄♥️
💕
😂 🤦🏽♀️🥰
😂😂😂
Who’s rocking these braids for quarantine?😅
Definitely... But I'm gonna have to do it by myself which I've never done before
I'm doing mine early this morning ing. Got the exact same hair and my runnerbands and hair grease. Please pray for me lol
I just did blue ombre ones 🙂
Trying to this morning 😂
Idk...I wanna be cute but this seems like a lot of work for just being at home. Plus, we have a Stay at home order in Michigan. Everything is shut down.
All licensed braiders that complain about natural hair clients hair needing to be straightened before braiding, need to watch this video. If you can't work with both natural and relaxed hair you need to practice, practice, practice honey. This beautiful by the way.
When did braiders start needing licenses???
@@trulyprettylady if you have a business you need to have a license if your just doing it out if your house I don't think you need one
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾....braiders PERIOD. The girl who does my braids. I just was my hair the night b4 make sure its NOT tangled and we havent had NO problems. She works with it and shes good. It always surpises me when i hear ppl say they gotta have their hair straightened b4 getting their hair braided🤷🏾♀️
I was about to comment the same thing. I couldn't even believe there were people agreeing with her about it. Like I can see what she was saying, but her delivery made it worst on her end. I am lpvong how Kim did her hair. I always struggle with doinb my own hair. And I am so going to try follow this video step by step (different grease and moisturizer).
Demetris Gray her hair is extremely stretched though. This is the equivalent of blowing out natural hair.
Kim you be making me mad with your straight parts. My scalp move to much my parts be crooked lol
kita T try arch parting instead (looks like U or C shaped) they don’t have to be as perfect bc the braids fall in between each other
@@khadejahgray thanks for the tip!!!
Your scalp move too much?! 😭😭😭 that’s some funny lmao
🤣🤣 scalp be on a move
020ctmarie i hollered because I knew exactly what she meant. 😭😭😭😭😭
"To make sure the parts looked pretty decent "...🤔 they are not just decent, they are perfectly straight. My hands could never.
I’ve been doing my own hair since I was a little girl and I’ve mastered straight parts
I tried this today on my hair, I've NEVER been a braider, like ever!!! I've always went to someone else to do my hair, so when she says beginner friendly, she is NOT lying. I love the way my hair turned out!!!!!!!!!!!! I've done 2 other styles from this channel to! She is def in my top 3 favorite youtubers now!! Love her whole vibe and everything she represents!!
Yay I'm encouraged! So you cut the hair extention the same length all through? I normally see people cut the extention for the back hair a little shorter so the end result is even. Could you please let me know how you cut yours?
And the elastic bands didn't cause any damage? That's what I'm most afraid of.
how many packs did you use?
@@arianna7642 I WANNA KNOW THAT TOOO
@@raconte-moialice9509 Wait I am mommy,kmfzv
I did my daughter hair and she liked it. Her exact words. “I use to be jealous Aaliyah had a mom that could do hair, now my momma can “ Thanks to this video.
There's not one NOT ONE hairstyle you've done that I didn't like💯💕👌
Saamme
FACTSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NOT ONE 💯💯💯💯🙌🙌🙌🙌
Facts💯
Ree Smit same here
When you have your makeup slayed, do your own hair then do the editing and upload this video..... Plus you are a mommy ! "Bay-beh", you can't tell me women aren't awesome! ❤
The rubber band method has changed the game for me.
Dre Day definitely a game changer
It’s been around my mother would do my hair like her and use rubber bands This was in 95 96
On my side,even with the rubber band method my grip game is weak
I somehow pull the rubber band off.
Just a tip:
If you can’t find small elastic bands or have trouble covering the elastic bands, there’s a safe way to use rubber bands.
Coat the rubber bands in oil or hair grease. Coat it completely.
This allows the rubber to not snag onto your hair and break it off.
Thank you for telling us it was helpful
Will blue magic hair grease work ?
That makes mine slip prematurely . I dont like that. I have seen people kinda like use the rubber bands then slip a little weave thru to help cover them. When u get ready to take them down just pull the weave a tiny but and cut the rubber band. It didnt snatch my hair out like it usually would
thanks for that info! ❤️
@CorieStyle...I'm gonna try that... Thanks
3 hours? Geez that’s how long it takes me to part half of my hair 😂😂😂
This usually take me the whole day and my lines r only clean in front 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Imma start doing this for two days.. Day one to section and day two to braid hopefully it will be clean 😂😂😂
How many packs did you use?
Edit: in case anyone else was wondering she used 6 1/2 packs. She has 26 braids. She pack got her 4 braids! :)
Also great job! :)
Thanks
THANK YOU I was trying my hardest to count the braids lol
Mvp
Thank u! 💕
Lol thank you because that was my #1 question
Your hands are blessed cuz mine would not come out like that
wen Wan with nails mind you. Chile 😩
Mine either. Especially with this big az water head I got 😭
With nails!!!
I successfully tried this on my 9 year old and it turned out so pretty. She is so happy. I have NEVER braided in hair on my girls. Your video made me want to try. So I went crazy and did all three of my daughters hair in different styles watching your videos. Thank you!
I have never braided my hair before but I watched this video and I did my entire head flawlessly! This tutorial was amazing. I got so many compliments on my hair. People were saying it looked like my braids were done professionally. Thank you so much !!!!
Hi how long did it take you to do them? 💕
We use to call these Dukie braids. Beautiful!
Yes ma'am.
I didn't like that name.....🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes ma'am Dookie braids are back and the hair accessories 🤣👍🏾👏🏾
Omg yes!! You took me back!!🤣👌🏾💯
I call them poetic justice braids
* runs to the beauty supply store to buy supplies *
Lovely look, Kim! Another day, another slay! 😍💁🏾
First of all honeyyyyy, anybody who can start their parts with one square on the CORNER of their head is a BOSS! But we knew that about you already! 🤗
It's 03:45am and I'm thinking of doing it. Got my extension ready. Pray for me 🙏🏾
How did it go? I'm scared 😂
Watching this with my 2 year old and he said, “that’s a pretty girl.” 🤯 like you are gorgeous but I’m shoooook!!! Hahahah ♥️
Men should understand how much money she saved to do her own hair
Love this! You’re braids look so pretty and professionally done. Got me thinking I can braid mine...
You always make any style look so easy. You are inspiring and awesome!
Right!!!! But I would probably quit just parting my hair. I need to try something a little easier than this as a beginner. Then work my way up. My arms get tired within 2 minutes!!!!
These are beautiful😍!!! Great job boo!!!👏🏽👌🏽 I’m 34 weeks pregnant and these are perfect for someone like me who needs a protective style that’s beautiful, lasts long, and easy to maintain👌🏽Happy new year and May God continue to bless you and yours as well as anyone reading this😇🙏🏽❤️
The AWOL Family. Yes, she is too cute! . She always do a bomb job!God Bless you and yours too🙏🏽. I really needed to hear that today! THANKS! Praying for a safe delivery for you and your baby!🍼🙏🏽
TheAWOLFamily my exact thoughts, I’m 36 weeks!

This is literally the first out of about 36 youtube hair tutorials that actually worked and I’m proud to wear outside. THANK YOU!
Lovely I like it
You are beautiful !
Am i the only one who think that she looks like Niki Minaj ?
I thought so too.
I see more naturals are going back to grease! I love it! Grease is life lol
Girl you’re a “Jane of all trades”, you’re so bomb at everything you do!
OMG OMG OMG, TYSM I KNOW HOW TO DO BRAIDS WITH WEAVE AT 12 YRS OLD!!!! TYSM! YOU GOT A NEW SUBSCRIBER!!
Did it work out for you? I’m 13 thinking about doing it myself
Yeah I’m 12 3/4 I did mine a little differently and it worked 😃
This is about to be my quarantine hairstyle. Jus gorg 😍
Samee
Bre Campbell how did your braids come out?? I'm taking my weave down and about to try this style today 😅😅
Me too one I take out my cornrows
Gurl I needed to see this for my current natural hair journey this is a $150 style I can do at home for free#YAYY👍🏽
I've watched this three times. I'm heading to my local beauty supply today and will post and tag when I'm done. Thanks for the Inspiration!
How did it turn out?
Did you try it?
Seriously, what can't you do?🤨🤔
A 1.99 for a pack????
Dudeee ..if i had that supply store i will buy it even for breakfast🤣🤣🤣
And obviously u slayyyy like usualll😫😫😍
I’ve never done this before but you made it look so easy! I’m going to try it. This looks beautiful on you 😍
00
how’d it go?
She literally makes anything she does look so easy
Same here . trying now.
You’re so talented, WOW!!! I’ll be tired from just parting my hair..
Yisel VonGin same 🤣😭
Probably would have to come back and finish the next day 😂.
You do it with such ease, lol. I’ll take about 3 hrs alone on the parting🤣
Now it's clear to see she did a good job on her hair and she pretty all them thumbs down wow she must have a lot of haters damn that's so insane but thumbs up girl I love luv❤❤❤❤❤❤
This tutorial was so helpful, I was able to do my braids by myself for the first time.
How long did it take?
Exactly
Yess my 1st time not taking days to do small-medium box braids because the rubber bands made it so I didnt go crossed eyed looking in a mirror to see if my parts stayed straight 😂
She's dopeee
This is the method from the early 90s & braids stayed intact a lot longer! These are beautiful
Can you give me an idea how many time does braids stay with good looking?
Well my hair is curled (3A) and probably would not last for so long. But I would like to have an idea...
This is a sign for me to braid my hair 😩
I bought the hair in July and STILL have not committed to making the time to do my hair 😂
Too cute 😍! I do my own as well n they be cute n comfortable just like this n not snatching my edges off!!
I know this video is 2 years old but I just watched it to do my own hair and I did it exactly how you said and my hair came out beautiful. I never thought I could do my own box braid. Never paying any one hundreds of dollars ever for this style that I can now do myself .
How many packs of braiding hair did you buy? How many parts did you do?
Tried this yesterday and after many hrs(it was wash day too) I am happy to report my first attempt turned out well. This is a great video. I made a few minor tweaks as I went along but I am confident my next attempt will turn out even better. Thanks again! This is great tutorial!!!
No matter what style you do it just comes out so darn beautiful
just gone with the wind fabulous. lol as Kenia will say....
Ugh. No. Not Kenya lol
Omg love this look on you. I had my hair like this for my bday in September everyone loved it on me. Nice job and the best part about it is that the style was free cause you did it yourself. So you saved yourself $100
Stunning!!! I'm here to CLAP this beautiful Black Woman Up!!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 #ShineOnHoney 💛💛💛💛💛
this quarantine got me thinking I can do this lol I need my hair done so bad
Me too girl me too might be my weekend project today
I was looking for a good braiding hairstyle so I can grow my hair out and I find this 😍😍 definitely doing this
This amazing family took me in when I was couch surfing. I live in their home as the “white auntie” of the house! Everyone here has ethnic hair except me! I’m doing my nieces hair and looking for ideas and watching tutorials so that they can go to school with confident and age appropriate styles!
Looking forward to trying this one!
I love this journey of learning about 4a 4b snd 4c hair and how to make
Protective styles!
I wish I could do that on my own as well. You make it look so effortless. You look good and I love the jumbo braids 😍
💯💯💯
My 15yr old daughter will be doing this to my head this weekend! Thanks for sharing! Your directions were clear and you took your time explaining each step without rushing. Thank you!
Seen ppl asking so
9:36
She has 26 braids in total
She used 6.5 packs of hair
You really are the parting queen. Dang!!!
I know! So satisfying ...
Frfr
The kind of hairstyle that finishes my edges 😅😢
A tko😂😂😂😂
Same af
That's y she seperated her edges sis
@@11nace Right. She left the edges out. Your edges can be maintained daily, don't try to force it into a braid or ponytail if it places tension on your hairline.
@Atomoli she still has her edges though and she's been doing such styles for long
Is it hard to sleep in these braids being the jumbo size at the roots ?
I’ve been confused on how to do these for AWHILE but this tutorial was super easy to follow. I’m about to try doing this now! Thank you💖💖💖
How did it turn out?
I’m watching this because I’m trying to draw box braids xd
You’re so beautiful, talented, & inspirational...Thanx 4 taking the time... It motivates so many of us that struggle with our day 2 day looks..Whether it’s hair, makeup, healthy eating choices, or all of the above...Thank you!💞😇💞 Peace & Blessings💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💞💞💞💞😇😇😇😇💕
💙 Well said 💙
Yassss these braids are so epically done. I did something similar with crochets a while back. I've gotta try these giant ones. 😍
Ugh I can’t wait to do these for summertime 😍😍
Girl do it know!!! Don’t wait lol 💕💕
Rubber band method is an easy way for everyone to learn and it has seriously made me start doing my own braids
It’s an elastic band
Yayyy thank you so much for the in-depth tutorial! I just finished putting in box braids and braiding my hair for the first time!!!!
I literally just purchased this same exact hair to do my box braids this weekend. I’m going to make mine a little smaller this time. I didn’t have as much versatility last time I made mine that big.
This may have been the most easiest tutorial I’ve ever seen 😩 protective styling here I come 🙌🏾
I just watched a video where you mentioned you used press on nails.could you do a video of that of how you apply?I thought that was really great.
Doing this on my foster daughters hair. I'm hoping jumbo braids will make the first time easier/simpler for my first go at them. Your video was so helpful. Wish me luck!
Thank you! You helped me braid my hair myself for the first time ever! And it actually turn out really good 😌❤
How many bags of hair did you use for this style?
I love the top you’re wearing! 👌🏾
Why wasn't i this blessed? 😢😢😢😢😢 with braiding hair.
I swear everything you do is just perfect!!!!
Pretty jumbo braids and you keep your hair healthy !!
I did mine doing this! It took me 8 hours because it was my first time ever 😂 when I was trying to grip my hair to the weave it kept sliding so you could see the rubber band and I would keep having to redo it! Lol! I also didn’t do mine as small and it still took me 8hrs 😩 but I’m happy with the outcome :) and overtime hope I get faster 😂 (saved some $ though) ❤️🙏🏽
I did my parts, banded my pony tales, and just put it up on day one. The next day I did the braids. This helped me with not getting tired out. But they are soooo hard to sleep on. I hope it gets better...lol
It took me about 10 hours..my first try but I was happy with the outcome. I've had them a week now. I plan to re-do them soon and take some pictures I think my 2nd try will be much cleaner!
I envy that you can braid with nails. I wouldn’t even dare lol.
You make it look so easy. I swear you and @msvaughntv are hands down the best on here with styling your own hair. You guys should do a collab. Been asking for that since 2013 I think.
You always part so neatly! It's so admirable! Side note : I love your nails!💕🤗
Love how she did her hair with long nails on wooow!
Why people are adding dislike this looks good.
I just did my box braids this morning at midnight it took me 2 hours for the first time 😆 I'm so excited it came out pretty I wish I seen this video first tho bc I actually was going for this size mines came out a little smaller than expected but practice makes perfect 😆 I'm going to try again in 2 weeks. Thanks for the video. Many blessings to you 😘
how many packs did you use?
@@sonyareed7909 ....two packs of the Bobbi boss pre stretch braiding hair. My hair is not that thick plus I have a tiny head🤭 I usually buy the freetress pre stretch hair on my 8 year old but I like the Bobbi boss hair bc it has a yaky texture and it was easy to grip my own hair so for now own I will be purchasing that hair.
@@sonyareed7909 if I know how to insert a picture I would share how I did it 🤷
I’ve been wanting to do my own braids again and you just motivated me!
How long do you keep these in for? Last time, I only lasted 7 days 😂
This Gurlllll🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 ,,, i feel totally untalented now😂😂😂😂
How many packs did you use? Looks great!
I got to the end lol I know how many packs. I was so impatient 😂
As a beginner in braiding, it was so hard for me to get a good grip on the hair but then i came across this tutorial and lets just say i am very happy now that i can go to places knowing rhat my box braids are secure. Love ya Kim
Tfs the amount of time and the amount of braids you had. Cute!
Yes little details like that matter. Lol.👍🏼
MsAlIisVanity They really do tho😂
She said it took her 3 hours and she has 26 braids
Shine & Jam doesnt work for me 😭 my hair is literrally not sleek anymore the next day.
Annie C right. It melts.
Gorgeous.....but I love all your styles🥰
Love the elastic bands idea... I've never braided my own hair and I went natural last year and so much growth. I'm going to try this method .
This was such a well thought out video.The instructions was simple, informative, and very clear. And I thank you for that.👍🏾You're a gorgeous girl, and your hair is simply beautiful. 🙂❤
I love this way of doing it. I do this on my daughter and it works. 💚
That is totally amazing.. Perfect..and with a lot of patience..You make it look so easy. You are beautiful.
Girl I be forgetting you have this skill amongst all the other ones...yess hunty I wish I could do my own hair smh 🤦🏾♀️... This looks really simple though
Me encantó...y además se maquilla muy bien.que bueno un totorial
I followed your directions and got great results, thanks you for the video
