Crochet Braids | Kima Braid Ripple Deep | Tamara Michelle

Hi guys it's tamara michelle welcome back to my channel in today's video. I am going to do a crochet with me using the keema braid ripple deep in 20 inches, because i didn't want to have a whole lot of braids. I'Ve just braided, i think, maybe 10 braids to the front to the back one two, three four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, yes and then maybe five in the back. It turned out pretty thick, but it was still okay for what i needed it to be. This is the oil that i use if you're using um or if you are doing a protective scalp style on your hair, don't forget to use oil before and also during, while you're wearing that protective style. This is your standard crochet needle, i'm sure everyone is familiar with it. If not, this is what it looks like. This is the hair out of the pack. You guys, like i said it's 20 inches. The ripple deep is really soft and flowy. You guys, but i'm not going to keep it 20 inches. I always cut mine in half, so that's basically 10 inches and it hits really well like right at the shoulder. So i'm just going to cut it in half, so you just pull your little section off. Of course, this is too big to crochet. So pull you your desired thickness um and be sure that you're careful with the proportions, because sometimes you can be back heavy. I'Ve done that before and it's not a good look. So if you've never crocheted before this is basically what you do. You wrap the hair around the hook. Pull the latch pull the hair through in the loop through the loop. You will pull the hair through twist. It and pull it through the other side. I failed to pin up my braids prior to crocheting, so that's, basically what i'm taking a standard bobby pin and i am going to pin up all the tail ends of my braids good to go so now, i'm just going to start the crochet process. You guys. I usually start from the back and work my way to the sides um. I can kind of see the proportion that way. So that's what i'm going to do so so, basically, this is what i was talking about just going across each braid working the back first. So this is what that looks like so far now i've moved to the side. So this is what it looks like you can kind of see and get a good feel of what it's going to look like and to me, when i start on the sides, i feel like i've made a lot of progress now that i'm done installing all of The crochet hair - it is cutting time, but first i wanted to let you guys see that i did the invisible knot method, so it kind of looks like the hair is growing out of my scalp. All i have to do is lay down my edges. When i get done - and you won't be able to tell so this is what it looks like forehead, the back is longer. This is a pretty nice cut or length, as is, but i've already started, cutting the sides. So basically, i'm just going to cut the sides and frame my face. Try to keep it shoulder, length, um and that's kind of my base, and then i can move around to the back and the top and etcetera. So i will say it can take some time to do the cutting process depending on how you want to wear your hair or the length, but i will say take your time on this part, because one cook can mess up the whole. Look you guys my son, he's nine! God bless his heart. He has so many questions for me at that moment i just told him to come on in and say hi y'all hi to y'all, so he's going to peek his little head in in a minute. That was a process, but i think i've gotten it just where i want it and then, of course you have to remember that over time this hair can shrink up some, so it may be. You know wise to just keep it just a little longer. I didn't, however um you know. I wanted it this length when i first started so she's going to cut it just a little bit more and i think i've got it looks so cute you guys it's nice and flowy nice natural. Looking bob.
