    UA-cam Tutorial: How to do natural looking crochet braids using straight hair and the knotless invisible part on yourself with no leave out. Step by step, slow, detailed, and great for beginners. This great protective style allows you to have multiple parts including a middle part, side part, or deep side part. It’s all up to you! Because you can have multiple parts, there are many different hairstyles you can do with this straight crochet hair. You can also cut this hair into different styles such as a bob or something with bangs, or leave it long. It is easy, simple, and great for teens, kids, or adults. For this tutorial, I did not have any leave out. The straight hair comes with a pre loop, making it easier to crochet onto the braids. This is not human hair, its synthetic or kanekalon. The brand I use in this video can be found in the link bellow.

    For those keep asking why she is wearing fake hair. Well, some ppl like to wear protective styles to keep their hair thick and healthy from the breakage of combing and curling you're natural hair daily. Also some ppl like versatile looks that last for days so they don't have to bother with combing their hair, esp those with a busy work life. Lastly, she's doing a TUTORIAL to show others how to create styles, not necessarily meaning she would wear this style or wear weave all the time. Now stop asking. You sound rude and quite annoying. Btw, I thought the video was useful, as intended. Keep up the great work. 💗

      @joannabernadindavis3617 6 років тому +265

      +Javier Cooper that is the real reason. Natural curly hair tends to be fragile and break easily. Too much manipulation of natural hair can increase breakage. Hair growth is triggered more when you wear protective styles for some. And each black girl has a different texture. Some is kinky curly or even wavy. Not all textures are the same. Why comment on something you know nothing of? You don't have natural hair nor are you black. So it would not make sense logically for you to comment on this topic

      Javier Cooper Dude chill. We don't hate our "nappy" hair, it just takes a lot of work, and some people genuinely don't have time to care for it, but don't want their real hair to end up damaged so they wear protective styles. Also protective styles help grow and protect our hair while allowing us to explore different lengths textures colors etc. You sound very ignorant about this topic, hope you get more educated and realize everything isn't a self hate thing. There are women of EVERY race who wear weave, but no one ever comes for them😒

    why would anybody bring race in this comments section.... white women (and women of all color for that matter) change their hair: color, style, texture... you name it. Why would it be any different for black women?! EVERYBODY changes their look from time to time (including men). This lovely young woman took her time to share something that she thought you'd enjoy... if you don't, then move on. But you have to admit she looks fantastic...!!! What woman wouldn't want to do this if they could look as good as she does?! Jealous much?

    I am seriously binge watching your videos! I understand why you wear weaves(which has absolutely nothing to do with self hate), the proof of the wonders and benefits of wearing protective styles is clearly in your natural hair which you proudly flaunt on a regular basis! Your tutorials get through to me in such a way that no other UA-camr has. And for the first time in my history of wearing weaves I am able to actually entertain the idea of installing my own weaves(may God help me!). I took down my weave not too long ago and noticed a significant amount of growth that I would not have noticed if I was constantly styling and manipulating my natural hair.
    Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. You are truly beautiful inside as well as outside. To be as young as you are and to have such a keen knowledge about hair is truly a blessing. I wish you the very best in whichever direction you decide to go in life.

    @clementine4133 6 років тому

    Seun you are so skilled at doing hair, and your natural hair is beautiful and long (perfect care!). I understand that you retain length like that, I used to perm and braid, had a beautiful head full of hair that I could perm whenever I wanted or let curl for a while...enter some friends that want me permed for a wedding, I go to the hairdresser and see my hair disappear in the sink, my scalp and forehead were burnt. After a journey in natural hair, bald, locs for years, natural hair again, I realized that my hair is like yours, it grows, it is ok with the perm (actually better growth), and braids, weaves, crochet work well to fit my versatility and retain length and strength. This you, this is me and others... it is ok, every hair is different. Thank you for the inspiration and tips.

    Thank you so much! I tried this method to today, on loose crochet hair and it worked! The hair I used was really soft, but it began to loosen. So I split the bottom half of the strand and tied it in a knot. If that makes sense. However, this method works beautifully and I’m definitely using it in the future. ❤

    This is a TUTORIAL! She could've taken the hair out the following week for all we know, regardless that's not the point. This video was put up for people to take what they want from it. MEANING you can tweak it to fit how you would want it to look. The technique is beautiful and gives an alternative to sew-ins especially for people who can't afford the maintenance of a sew-in or live in an area where black hairstylists are scares.
