PSA: Guys, I'm aware that the takedown process is going to be lengthy. If I didn't wanna take them out, I would've never installed them. There's no regrets here, just happy that I chose a protective style that will keep my hands out of my hair for a while and at the same time promote growth.

It's the part of doing my hair that I just can't seem to master. Same with twisting/braiding the back. I don't know how to braid my hair from an upside down angle with my hands. The strands always get lost and confused. I know they say just practice, but how can I practice something that I don't even know the proper technique for? -_-

@xoxarily

Kurly Kayla That’s so true, I was trying to braid my hair in the back and I think I did a three strand twist and I don’t even know how to do a three strand twist.

I've started putting my both of my daughter's hair in mini braids and they love it. Weekly washing, deep conditon every two weeks and taken down every 6 weeks. Takedown takes 1 day per head and they are retaining length and their hair is thick and healthy!

Confession: I rewatch this video EVERY TIME I need motivation to do my mini braids.

I have mini braids in right now. I'm doing my own challenge of 12months of mini braids (maybe twists here and there). I actually twist the ends, so I kinda have both at the same time. I plan to just keep it that way because I get more stretch with the majority of it braided from the roots. I'm trying to retain as close to 6 inches this year if possible and thicken my edges. Wigs and braids with added hair pull out my edges, so I just want a low manipulation and low tension hairstyle. I plan to keep each set in at least 2 weeks at a time minimum, 1 month max.

LOVE 💖 this! So inspirational to see 4c styling that does not require fake hair and I can wear to work. And it lasts a long time. Beautiful

Thank You, you just made my nite! for my 4a/b fine hair! Probably made my whole year! I been wearing mini twists to and was going with that as a protective style for the whole winter. But my hair is very coily even when in twists, regardless of using gel, so if I want to spray it with water or dare wash it and try to leave them in, NOT it unravels. I clicked on your video and the first minutes in just took two down and braided them and everything you said about the benefits I recognized immediately. I can tell this wont unravel if I want to daily moisturize them or even wash them in the shower! And I bet it wont be so prone to all the fly-aways in between I suffer with. I also love how much longer and stretched they look, full sebum coverage is my goal so TY!

I Love how this video is still relevant 3 years later ♥️ Beautiful work sis!

I accidentally started doing mini braids lol and I love it. I wear them under my wig and it’s such a great protective style for me because I feel obligated to leave them in. When I do the usual cornrows I tend to take them out quickly, but because of the time it takes me to install and take down the mini braids, I end up leaving them in for 2-4 weeks, which makes it a great protective style for me.

Wow this is beautiful! I've been doing mini twists time to time for a while, but i'm definitely trying mini braids next time. I think I would like the extra stretch from the braids.

So glad I saw this video. I could not decide on a size for locs. I'm going to do mini braids/twist and allow them to loc. Seems like the perfect size for my hair.
