    I recommend the Ez hair to someone who has a sensitive scalp, that’s prone to itching and I like the hair, because it doesn’t have any bacteria within the strands and you won’t have a issue with dipping it in hot water.

    You are absolutely a great teacher at this here KZread University 👏🏾 You literally answered every question I had regarding what hair to use. I stopped braiding hair after college because we had that first pack of hair and I am thee prissy girl and I just refused to tear up my hands. After learning about knotless braids I was skeptical about starting back again but just you talking about the different hair and what it does to your hands really helped me to go ahead and get started back again. I have definitely subscribed. Thank you Professor! 💎

    After you cut it, on the blunt side you need to feather it out. You can pull each strand or a couple at a time, just a little bit. Do that for all the strands and comb or brush that end lightly as well. That way you have a feathered /Pre stretched look

    UPDATE: I tried the 30” Ruwa hair for thigh length knotless braids. The texture goes perfect with my blowdried hair, doesn’t tangle much if you properly detangle while braiding and it didn’t burn my fingers like other brands. I don’t like how thin the ends are so I had to add more hair but it has a lot of movement once I dipped them. I would definitely buy this hair again in a longer length so that I don’t have to add as much hair to the braids.

My question is when braiding I always end up with a blunt tip with this hair or maybe its my technique... how do you prevent ending up with the blunt tip? Also if I do end up with the blunt tip is there a way to thin it after you braided it already? ❤Can you make a video on this 😊 Also do you have a video on best method curling the ends of braids?
