If you want to see exactly how i achieved this new style that i tried i'll call the invisible locks, i think they are super cute, so without further ado, let's jump right into this tutorial. This is the hair that i will be using in today's video. Go ahead and take a screenshot, i can't tell you guys too much about the hair right now, because this is my first time ever using it. I will tell you guys at the end how i feel about the hair. I went ahead and separated each strand because they come in pretty big like strands. I separated each one into threes, so you definitely get a lot of bang for your buck and this is how the hair looks all laid out on my rack that i got from amazon. Y'All know i love shine and jam. It helps me smooth my roots and blend my hair with the extensions, and it allows me to have crisp parts, i'm going back to the style factor edge booster to let my hair today. I'Ve never tried this scent, but it says that it's maximum hold. I love spraying my braids with this man and tail shine on. I should have got some more. I didn't realize, i'm basically out just use whatever oil is your favorite. This is mine. I make it it's a the perfect blend of a lot of different oils that are really good for your hair, so those are all of the products that i will be using, of course, in terms of tools, you're, definitely going to need a crochet needle or this Style, it's not going to end up looking like you crocheted your hair, though so don't worry you under the edge brush you're, going to need a detangling brush, um and you're, going to need a rat tail comb. I, like the ones with the middle ends, love her and then, of course, you're gon na need some clips or whatnot to section your hair off and all that good stuff. So that is everything so i went ahead and did one whole side of my head. Um and i'm really feeling them okay, so first off it was easiest for me to section my hair in four sections, one two and three four in the back, so starting off with this side, and i'm also breaking out right here guys. So please just disregard um, but i did four sections so i'm gon na go ahead and um section out my first one and i'm basically following exactly what i did on this side. So in fact the same thing over here all right. So once you have your section, this is going to be one twist but you're going to have to split this into two sections as well boom. So once you split them, you want to get some shine and jam and coat the roots of your hair and then crazy, as it sounds you're going to clip one away and then you're going to section your one section into two be prepared to do a lot Of like just be prepared to do a long process when it comes to this style, because it's a lot of small pieces intertwined basically and i'm gon na go ahead and get me even more gel and i'm gon na split it into three and put a tiny Little braid in my hair, so luckily for the style you do not have to braid all the way down like that would literally be my worst nightmare. You just need to braid down a little bit. Something like that. I don't even know if you can see just so it doesn't unravel and then you're going to go ahead and take your piece of hair and your crochet needle and you're going to crochet that through and if you're new to crocheting. All you do is open the latch put it through your head, attach the hair close the latch, that's the most important part and then pull it right through and you're good to go, go ahead and find the other piece of hair that belongs to that section and Pull it over and then just add, more shine and jam, so everything is nicely secured and then you're going to do the same thing to the other section. If you have tiny hairs in the front like me, this is going to be the the hardest part for you, but it's okay just take your time, and i realized that the back of your head, no one's gon na see that part. So i didn't do this part in the back of my head, like i didn't, split the hair and then braid it. I just braided the whole section, because as long as the front and like the middle looks good, you should have nothing to worry about. So i'm gon na go ahead and put my little braid in. Let me get my other piece of hair and crochet it through remind you. This piece of hair is one of three from the actual section that they give you in the package, because that section was too big. I would have had like jumbo twists and that's not what we're going for some people crochet their hair halfway through and then pull it just pull it all. The way through makes it 10 times easier and, like i said earlier, retrieve your other part of the portion and get you some shine and jam so now it's time to actually turn this into something that looks like locks and then twist them together. It'S basically what this whole invisible locks style is supposed to portray it's supposed to look like you have real locks that have been twisted together in a you know, two-strand twist style and then wrapped at the bottom, to create a bob effect. Basically, what you want to do is twist your hair at the top really really well and really tightly in one direction and then in order to twist them together, you're going to twist them in another direction. So let me just be glad to show you twisting i'm adding shine and jam, because i don't want that little braid to show some of my braids are showing so i'm gon na have to redo them. But basically, as you can see, i'm twisting away from my face, while still holding this section, i'm gon na get my shiny jam. As you can see, i use a lot of shiny jam um. Sometimes, in order to help you cover your plait, you have to comb your hair through, so i just did that and now, like i said, i'm twisting again away from my face. So, let's just twist at my jam, instead of twisting away from my face, i'm going to twist towards my face and i like to leave a little bit of space in between them because trust me they're going to get tighter as you twist and then i twist Regularly, i'm kind of still twisting the twist, as i twist like i'm doing that arrest motion, but for the most part you can just twist as normal, because um you want them to kind of get chunkier as you go down like i can see where my hair Is sticking out at i just put a little bit on my hair and then you keep twisting y'all see how, like the root, got really tight, even though i didn't like twist it tight at first once you come to the bottom of the twist, you see how Long, it is um, i'm gon na go ahead and find my other piece to see where i had that one end all right. So once you have your twist you're going to flip the hair up at the length that you want it to kind of sit at and then you're going to fold it once fold, it again take this piece and wrap it around this hair fyi is not long Enough to give me the look that i really want it at the ends. I'M gon na put a picture of how my hands are supposed to look um. So if you want your hair to look like that, i would suggest getting longer inches but girl. This is all my beauty supply had to offer, so we had to make work with what we had so once you're finished, twisting it you're just going to put it through the bottom loop i'll show you guys again and then you're going to pull this part down To lock it in place, there goes your little twice and it looks like i have two little locks twisted together. I just think it's so cute. I don't know this is the perfect style. If you ever thought of having locks - and you didn't know how he was gon na look, this is this is the look. This is what it is same thing as last time get your section and you're gon na split it into two and you're gon na coat. Your roots with shine and jam and then you're gon na split this section into two as well, but the first time we split it. We split it uh vertically and now we're gon na. Do it horizontally? Put that section away and you're gon na put a tiny braid in your hair and, like i said, don't go too far down you just need a little bit to where it won't unravel and then you're going to get your third of a section i like to Put my fingers like this, make sure you open the latch of your crochet needle put it through your braid. Take your middle and index finger and attach the hair close the latch pull it all the way through. That piece was nappy, so it kind of got stuck and then you're going to pull that other part of the section down get some shine and jam, and you can just put that away as you do the same exact thing to this side twisting away from my Face with the first section add a more jam jam is really your best friend. Whenever you do protective styles, i'm gon na pull down the other part. The same thing said: it's that it's very like repetitive, okay, i mean most styles are once you have them both going away from your face now, you're going to twist them together, going towards your face and remember to leave space at the top, because it's going to Get tighter as you go and then just twist as normal once you get to where your hair ends, you see how my hair is sticking out right now. Add you some more shine and jam once you come to the end of your twist you're just going to fold it where you want the hair to end and you're going to not necessarily fold it again, but now you have some extra hair you're going to take This i've been wrapping away from my face just in case, if you wanted, if you were wondering and you're just going to wrap it back downwards, and once you have the end of it right here, you're going to stick this through this little loop that you have Right here, stick it through and then go back to the top where you started: wrapping down and you're going to pull at it to secure the end, and it will not unravel if you twist tightly at the top of your hair. And if you pull firmly and really tuck it and secure at the end, none of your twists should unravel i'm gon na continue doing that all over my head and i'm gon na play some music for y'all to listen to. If this tutorial has been easy for you to follow, please give me a like, because it takes a lot of time, energy effort and coin okay moolah to put into these videos. So i would really appreciate it if you show us something: love. Okay, let's continue with the tutorial is foreign? Yes, yes, baby, just fast this okay, you guys, so i ended up finishing my hair way quicker than i thought, and i absolutely love it. Okay, i have to be honest with you guys. I ended up realizing when i did this out of my head that the smaller the braid the better the outcome. So i have some chunky braids over here, like when i actually braided my real hair that i'm going to redo but baby. I got somewhere to go today. So that's not going to happen today. So we're just going to put these over to the side honey, because this is my favorite side um. But right here is my favorite twist for some reason - and i want that to show - i don't know - i'm just real particular y'all know me. If you've been watching me for a while, you know tara is really particular to her hair. So i don't know i want to wear my hair like this today. I think it's so cute. The the twists are also like really lightweight and soft, like i can squish this. You know like i'm not going to have no problems going to sleep whatsoever. The top of my hair is tight because i want these to last long, but i really like them. I think they are such a cute length um. If you don't like the length of it, you can pull it a little bit to adjust the length and make sure it's how you want it. It'S easy to do, and it's probably gon na last me a long time make sure you go to sleep with your satin, silk scarf and bonnet okay and make sure you know you just keep your hair well, moisturized and stuff like that. So i'm going to go ahead and use the edge booster to line my edges, so this look can come together, she's brand new, so i had to take the thing off. This don't smell as good as the yellow one. But it's sorry, you know i'm too worried about that. I didn't leave too many edges out because um i really want this style to last long. So i just left what naturally is left out. I didn't like go and section any out and just gon na brush them into place, so this style took me no time to do guys. Like i swear, i was, i don't know if it was just because i was moving and i was determined, but i woke up around seven today and i probably got started around 7 45 and right now is 12 16 um. So i was moving on. This is probably one of the easiest styles i've done recently and one of the quickest styles as well, and it's also one of the cheapest styles. So basically i used, i ended up using one pack of hair and let's talk about the hair in general, because i definitely want to give you guys a review like i said i would earlier, but i used one whole pack of hair and then i used oops. Then i used one of the sections from the three piece pack. You know only use, not even all of it, because i still have all this hair left over so i would say, get two packs of hair. I ended up getting four, so hopefully they like you know they do exchanges or something or returns, and my beast pencil because i doubt i'm gon na like do this style again. I just wanted to try it out, because i thought it was cute i'll show you moisturize your scalp, so yeah review in terms of the hair. I love it um. It'S not rough feeling like a lot of twist hair is like i hate cumin swiss hair. For example, it's real tough to me. It hurts my fingers when i'm doing that when i do my hair with cumin twist hair, i like it um. I wanted to try it with marley twist hair and i think if i did a molly twist hair, they would have looked like real locks even more, and that was the bag i was going for, but, like i said, this was the best option that my beauty Supply had because, if you don't know, i shop at a black owned beauty, supply and um, it's a small store. So of course, they're not going to have everything that i want every single time. But that's fine because i'll rather keep the um money in the community versus going to somebody else. So it is but yeah it's 10 out of 10 recommended hair, but it just don't look like locks like it looked like chunky twists until you look at the top. It looks like locks at the top, but the bottoms look like chunky twists. I wanted them to look like locks all over, but it's totally fine. Let me stand up and give you guys a 360.. I don't know what the back of my head look like to be honest, because i take my time doing the parts like i said i have somewhere to go and i have another video to film after this so sh we gon na make do what we got. Let me see what the back of the head look like before. I show y'all all right. If i don't look too crazy, but my parts aren't the cutest like, oh, not so much down. I switched to the parts because i didn't do my hair in front and behind a mirror like i normally do. I was like really just thugging off the front of the mirror.
