How To ➟ CROCHET BOX BRAIDS 🔥 (looks like the real thing! free-parting)

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Hey my lovelies! Today I'm here with a tutorial on how I did my crochet box braids. I used just under 7 packs of 24" small crochet box braid hair for this and it took me about 2.5 hours to do (not including cornrowing my hair). I left out my front edges and did single plaits there so that the style looks undetectable and the parting looks natural. Hope you like!

    you look stunning! you have so many options with your beautiful hair! you can wear wigs and it looks realistic, weaves, crochets, braid it, wear an Afro, straighten it...I am honestly about all the creative options you have with your hair!! I am quite limited with my thin caucasion hair when it comes to Styles. no weaves, no crochets, no today blond tomorrow black ... I am working with it and try to make wigs as realistic looking as possible but I really hope all of you fabulous Ladies embrace your fantastic hair!! have a blessed day!

    I'm 41 and I am so amazed at how far latch hook/crotchet braids has come. When they came out with these though, I said I would never again do individuals again! I've done latch hook on both my daughters hair this year; havanna twists, and jamaican bounce. Done in less than 2 hrs each time. Love it!

    For crocheting yes, but then there's also the method of just regular braids, or braiding natural hair into extensions, which looks about the same.

    What my mom did to my hair was, french braid upward from my edges and in the middle braid it into a circle (worked for me because i have A LOT of hair!!) to trick people to look like they're single braids, but they're not! its a lot easier than un-braiding the braids and braiding.. But everyone has their ways!

    I have been inspired to do a lot of different styles every now and then to get away from popular styles. Yesterday, January 28, 2023 I braided my hair up. I added tracks and crochet some hair all wet and wavy hair to upgrade my skills. It was very fun to use all three hairstyles in one hairstyle. I love how my hair looks. Tiny wet and wavy braids, with wet and wavy tracks, and wet and wavy crochet hair. My head feels light. Keep up the good work 👏🥳🎉👍

    your hair looks really great. But I'm so scared to install crochet braids for a second time after the huge damage I had the first time. The lady did my cornrows so tight but since I didn't had experience with crochet braids I thought it ought to be so, and the result was a deep wound on my hair scalp. so my advice don't let everyone touch your hair try to DIY as much as possible.
