What'S up gives army-issue girl is a treats and I'm back at you again and today, I'm showing you guys how to get your hair into a really nice slick, meat bun, while still wearing your braids, and this will help you, if you're in the army - and you Are trying to get your hair in a bun for work? I'Ve got. You still haven't asked me to do this video, so I got you I'll show you how I get my hair to this really tight cute fun. I'M also gon na give you guys some tips on how to get your hair braided to ensure that your braids are within the regulation, so without further ado I'll get right on it to the video. Actually, first things first, is I lay my edges. You know I use edge control with my braids and then I just take a scarf and I wrap them for like five minutes and then I take them down or I take the scarf off and so for a second video. I did not do my edges, but do you have a big scrunchie like this and then another scratchy like this? So this is the thicker ones. You know I feel like I ought to use these with my braids and they've been pretty amazing, so I'm gon na continue to use those, so the first one I'm going to use is this one but know how you like it? You know you can do your hair in the middle part side part, but for this today, because I'm taking my dears I'm good today, I'm gon na do my hair in the side. Part: okay, so I'm gon na take my hair, put it in a low ponytail um. You don't have to pull really tight, you know, but for me I'm giddy and it's too alright next step is we're. Gon na take our ponytail we're going to split it into two. I depended on. You know which hand is the most dominant for you. But for me I take my left side and I go around clockwise. So something to do because my right hand is once doing on twisting and once we get everything all tight. So what I do is I'm gon na take this side right here and I'm you don't have to take all of it. I was taking and I'm going to twist it right twist it around and I'm just gon na make sure that all the braids are tight and as I go around then I add more hair to the twist right. Then I take that second half and I'm gon na start Peter 20. Once I get halfway there right halfway to the my blend, I'm just gon na take the whole thing my whole ponytail and I'm going to twist it really tight. I'M gon na keep twisting it around the bread. When I get halfway back to the bottle, I'm not twisting anymore, I'm just gon na. Take it go straight around. Do some chugging, I'm gon na take my big scratchy poop and no it's just secure it. I'M gon na tie it around there. You have it there. You have a nice feeling, my friend a loose braid. We achieve this in less than like five minutes, guys, okay, and so now that we have achieved our blend. I'M just gon na give you guys some tips on one like when you get your hair braids. So the goal is to make sure that your brains are at least a half an inch in diameter right. So, in order for me to get long like that one foot length braids Alice, I told my stylist, I said so. I recommend you do bigger parts and or triangular parts instead of square marks so that I can achieve that, and so she did bigger parts. But smaller brains and it's it look, it still looks full. You know still looks very full, so she did bigger part smaller braids and she did feedings. So with that being said, the ends of my brains aren't artistic, as the group raise. So everything isn't the same size. It'S so like. I said when you saw me at the end, I just like wrapped around and I was good to go. I just wrapped it around this end. I was good to go because there's thinner at the ends. Therefore, it's not as much hair to try to get into it, but so that is my recommendation for you. If you want braids braids like mighty, you want them longer than just like a flame it back, that's what you can do and that just mix it. So you don't have a lot of hair to try to get into one money. You don't have this big huge gigantic one, that's you're trying to achieve okay, so I hope this video helped you guys you guys asked for it. You asked a few showers, so um wish me luck on my DA photo. Today is my friend D phone as a cancer, and I'm still struggling it never fails. It never fails, but I hope you guys enjoyed this video if you want more of these natural, less and less talking on cell videos be sure to thumbs up and comment below. If this video helps you in any way. Okay, I love you guys and I'll see you guys on the next episode. Energy girl is latrines and we're missing always protect. You

momma Fitbit: I remember your video on taking your first DA photo and the busy morning you had getting ready, getting nails done, picking up jacket, talking about getting your fav sweet tea, but wound up with a coffee. Every time I go to a nail shop I remember- you got in and out on your time schedule. ❤ . Don't forget to show us the final picture. It is great you find nail and hair stylists to work with you and for you - they give you want you want and within regulations. Like the bun and the braids..not so much on the length, though...
