Mini Braids + Crochet! Viral Crochet Hair Hack w/ Synthetic Hair + One Week Update

I did something different with my hair this week and I was pleasantly surprised how easy this style was to accomplish and how well it held up throughout the week. I got the crochet hair from my local beauty supply (anything with water wave or curly hair should do) - I only used 1.5 packs of hair. It took me (from wash to styling) 6 hours but this paid off because I get to not do my hair for two weeks. This hairstyle is perfect for fall/winter too!

Wash day + Styling products:
Amika The Kure Strengthening Kit
The DOUX C.R.E.A.M
Cecred Hair and Scalp Balm

Timestamps:

Intro/Wash day recap 0:00-4:09
Styling (mini braids + crochet) 4:09-12:41
Night prep + preservation 12:41-21:35
Week in my/Outro 21:35-29:00

Thank you so much for showing us what this looks like on short 4c hair and with synthetic hair because not everyone wants humans hair. This is my exact hair length and texture. Good job! How long did it last you?

Thank you! I've been looking for a video with synthetic hair

Use Got to Be Glued Gel on the synthetic hair. It will help keep it from getting tangled

Ugh this was the perfect video! I’ve been doing my hair since 11pm. It’s not 5am and this is the 2nd video I’ve found with real SHORT hair like mine! Thank you soooo much

My hair is like yours and I have been looking to see this done exactly how you did it. I want to use 10” Afro feathered crochet hair on my hair that’s twins with yours. I think I would try to see how it looks with and without braiding the ends and add a piece in the middle and none at the roots. Recently , I’d thought about doing it like that, but hadn’t seen anyone not putting three pieces onto their braids. I don’t like that because my head is small and that would seem too full. Thanks very much for sharing. That cream looks to be very moisturizing. I’ve seen people using a “curl smoothie”, to make very moisturized broads with one product.

Hi I saw where you got a few negative comments leaving your ends out, I want to commend you for showing us how to use the synthetic hair.

Abundant Blessings Beautiful Young Lady♥️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Did any few pieces come out using the knot technique you used?
