Youtube we are back at it again, and so today we are going to be doing this up too, but the food tres African braids three times a hundred percent chemical on here by shaking go. This hair is free memories, resistant, it's great for water, heating setting and it's tangle free. So, to start off this, I'm up to what we're gon na do is we're gon na want a section on hair into three sections, so you're gon na want to make a section in the front from Temple to Temple and then one in the very back and Your middle piece is going to be your smallest section, so, as you see, the bigger section is in the back and in the front, but that metal piece in the middle you're just gon na split it down the middle. So it's almost like we're breaking our hair into four sections: okay, once you tuck that side away, you're going to make a feed-in braid on both sides, and now I get that this part of the of the updo may not be also beginner-friendly, but we can definitely Modify this you can either choose to take this feed and braid section out or if you're not able to do a feeding braid by yourself. You can always just do a regular braid with your natural hair or do a flat twist or you can get somebody to assist you with doing the feed and braids. I did to the feet on break here at these two sides, because I just felt like it gave the style a little bit more dimension. So I'm just gon na go ahead and start by braiding, my natural hair and then I'm just gon na add little pieces as I go along to create the feed in braids I'll, also insert up in the top right hand corner of the video a link to My Fulani braid tutorial, where I kind of show you how I do feed in braids there as well, so once the two braids are done. They'Re gon na meet both at the center and then we're just gon na go ahead and slick. The back and the front portion so we're just going to detangle the back. Of course we're gon na go in with our base, which is our handy, dandy, Cantu, edge control and then we're gon na. Follow that up with the got to be yellow the got to be black and some gorillas, not one thing. I definitely want to let you guys know about this African braid hair by free trust. This here is I'm gon na be honest: it's not a hundred percent tangle free, but it definitely does not snag as much as expressions braids do. One pack gets the job done. In fact, half of the one pack will get the whole job done. I used one pushing or the middle or the center same thing of your head when you're, slicking and you're securing it with your scrunchie, because we are gon na have the little tiara detailing in the front or crown detailing in the front. You want to make sure that there's not a lot of commotion too close to that again we're just gon na twist our natural hair and tuck it away with everything and making a little bun. So this is basically how it should look in the beginning phase. We'Re gon na go ahead and slick our hair down and I'll be ready to create our up too so you're gon na take one pack and you're gon na secure to the back bun and they're gon na do a braid again when it comes to doing braids. For your up juice, you don't want to braid the braid too tight. You always want the braid to be loose. You want to be very light handed when it comes to doing the braid, because that's what's gon na make it the hair move more and it's gon na make that look not look too rigid. So what we're gon na do is we're gon na wrap. It once wrap it around twice and then, as you see, I'm kind of mapping out how I'm gon na wrap it and I'm just gon na. Let that little piece hang so before adding the second pack of braid to the front part. You just want to wrap the back braid around twice each bundle - I guess I should say of braid - is 82 inches long, so it can be a lot of hair, but it just it works and my head is small and it didn't see it wasn't too much On my head now that you've added the second braid we're gon na go ahead and do like a figure, eight wrap that end tail around the top bun tuck it behind the braid and pin so that this way nobody sees our secrets, and for this look you Always want to use the long, prong pins and not bobby pins for the front now we're going to separate a small section and that section you're gon na see what we do with it next, but this bigger section here we're just gon na go ahead and do A loose braid secured at the end and then we're gon na go ahead and always pre map out how you want your bun to be wrapped before pinning so the sweets not like you're wrapping and pinning it and it gets annoyances. You want to pull it up. So for me, I'm gon na pull it back just to cover that little elastic and then we're gon na go ahead and just wrap it around and instead of wrapping it back once more under I'm gon na tuck, the braid and the tail of that braid. From behind again always using the long prong pins, I'm just gon na pin everything into place and the reason why I say to you. The prong pins instead of the bobby pins, is because the bobby pins are very tight and it may be a little bit too hard to get the bobby pins through such thick hair and it may be uncomfortable for you. Now. We'Re gon na create the little tiara. Look so all I'm gon na do is I'm going to braid this part again loosely you don't want anything to be too tight and you see how long that is guys. 82 inches. Okay, that was the little rubber band at the end and you're just gon na pull it over to one side of your head, because you want it to drape in the front like a very royal crown and I'm just looking in the mirror to see how low Down, I would I want it in my face for this part you can use bobby pins or you can continue to use the pumpkin look, but the braids being so small. You can use a bobby pin and so I'm just gon na drape it across once. Pin it and then loop it back around and drape it again and there you have it guys once you drape it and you pin it, you can leave it like this and just tuck underneath that little tail end under the top bun. You can go ahead and leave it as is, or you can add little jewels to it, as I did in the end and there you have it and up to fit for a royal queen. Hopefully you guys enjoyed this.
