How to Sew Down Long Hair for crochet braids
How to sew up long hair for crochet braids
I'm new to crochet braids and they are officially my new thing and I can't wait to try out new styles. With trying new crochet styles, you can use different braid patterns. I have long, thick hair, so every braid pattern won't work for me as it will get bulky, fast. This is my first time braiding my own hair, but never again, lol.

On your initial insertion of the needle… put it through the loop. That way you don’t have to worry about not pulling it too much and it sliding out! You can pull it as tight as you need to. Thank you for watching!
Just braided my sister’s hair down. This video was a life saver. Thank you!

Yessss! I’m so glad it helped!! Thank you for watching and commenting! Note for future: if you noticed how I was trying not to pull it too tight until I had put the needle through 2-3 times so it didn’t come out… you don’t have to do that. On your initial insertion of the needle... put it through the loop. That way you don't have to worry about not pulling it too much and it sliding out! You can pull it as tight as you need to from the start.
Praise him. A video for people with long hair like us.

@@HeyChrishinda Ahhh...that makes sense. My hair keeps growing because I keep doing crochet styles. So, it's a catch 22 because it gets harder to braid down. Lol. Got my solution now. 😊
Also, could definitely use a video attaching the braids to themselves. It sounds self explanatory, but would love to see it being done. thanks!

Lol, have a some faith in your ability! (I also had a camera and computer as my monitor so I could see what I was doing.) You’ll just have to feel around, but you can do it. Maybe set up 2 mirrors, so you can see the back.

You’re not really late... lol. But I will keep this in mind. You just feel for the string, raise it up, slide your scissors under, cut, then pull the string out. You’ll have to cut in multiple places.

Hi - thanks for the vid. But how does it look at the end? How does it not look chunky in the back? I have long hair and have been struggling with having my crochet braids/twists look good all over. The front always looks okay because the cornrows are thinner up front, but I still end up with long, thick braids in the back that I sew down, but it doesn't look so good when I crochet the hair on :(
@HeyChrishinda
3 жыл бұрын
It doesn’t look chunky unless you have the braids sewn more towards the top of your head, which I’ve done with a different braid pattern and wouldn’t suggest. Since my hair is so thick and long, I tried the braid pattern where you braid the sides and nape upwards and and it was so bulky in the back middle that the twists looked bulky too. Your hair will cover it just fine. Here is a video with the finished product... I did end up cutting it, which will be my next upload kzread.info/dash/bejne/fISK3Nmcp6WWdbw.html

I suggest straight backs with or without the anchor braid... & if you want to put it up in a ponytail, just find a cute headband. Thank you for watching!
Are you going under the cornrow or through it when you're sewing?
@HeyChrishinda
Жыл бұрын
Through. Once you’re ready to take it out and cut the thread… it’s very easy to remove and if you miss any pieces, once you take the braids out, you’ll get the rest.

I did this but my hair has long layers and is a bit longer than yours and it is sooooo bulky in the back now 🙃 😅 I did my whole head in locs but now idk what to do! Top and sides are fine but the back is bare looking and the bottom is so chunky.

The only thing I can think of is making sure to pull the two braids really snug, so it lays flatter and pull the thread nice and tight so it flattens it... not tight enough to cause a headache though
How would you remove the thread?
@HeyChrishinda
11 ай бұрын
You would just feel for the thread, put your hands underneath, and then cut. If there are any pieces left, when you unbraid your hair, those last pieces will come out
