My Favorite Essential Products To Use When Braiding Hair | Everything You Need For Box Braids

Hey y'all welcome back today's video is about my favorite products that I like to use for box breaks. Also a slight tutorial on how I do my box break. So to start off, I am be tangling, her hair. I started shampooing and then tried to detangle. Then I had to let her sit up with the conditioner own sake: detangle, some more her hair, just taking down some box braids that I did maybe three months ago. So she came in with what looked like a braid out and her hair was not detangled. So now I'm gon na show you everything that I use. Yes, that's a fingernail clipper, because sometimes i braid in here and kind of mix with my cuticles and my nails. So you see my Murray's edge wedge, which I've sold out. That is my go to product. The razor the blow-dry with the comb attachment leave-in, conditioner, hair spray, sheers clips, and I list everything else in the description box. This is my stand to hold my braiding hair and easy edges edge control that I've been using lately, my counsel to balsley hot water to dip the braids, and I will be using queen bee here in 30 inch today. So, as usual I like to put in leave-in conditioner to comb through the hair brush through detangle and blow-dry y'all, and this kiss dry. It is so amazing it's affordable and it gets the job done and not just absolutely love it. So y'all ready using this thing. Since 2017, I love it, it holds the hair in place, it mean it just allows me to be able to break and go break grab and go refill. I like to put the edge control on the back of my hand. That way, I don't have to constantly keep you know reaching over and dipping and putting it back, and it just works to be right. There close, to my other hand, and just that fast she would sleep, see what happened was her phone died and I saw her girl. You can put that phone on the charger because you're gon na let it get some good juice because you're not about to begin up and down out of this chair, putting this phone on the charger when it die so you're gon na keep it over there. For a good 45 minutes, while I'm doing your hair and that's what happen in yeah, she fell asleep, which was fine by the way I've been doing her here since 2016-2020, such a loyal client, I honestly didn't realize the view of this recording until now. So if you're having a problem trying to understand what I'm doing, but you would like to learn this technique, just message me coming below. Let me know - and I would actually just do this on a mannequin that way I can see better and I can get closer and you all can really see what's happening. Oh yes, iced over here is 6:15 p.m. so around this time. It'S probably like 11 big Tina, SH p.m. yeah. It didn't take that long. I mean I did stop a few times plus I was recording plus she was sleep um. I was snacking here and there, so I probably could have got done and maybe in four hours, but it's cool. I also like to trim the flyaways and go over lightly with a lighter, but I'm careful to not, you know, actually burn the clients hair plus. You know when you burn it, because it's gon na smell awful, so y'all now I am curling her hair with braiding hair and if you would like to see a separate video on how to do this, just let me know - and I can be sure to show You got my handy dandy killer right there, waiting for me, okay, so back to repping for yourself right here, and it has to be done in, like small party means, because if you do too many breaks and it's just not gon na scrunch up and it's just Not gon na form the curl in the hair or string it's gon na break, so my water is hot enough now I can proceed with defense, so this is what you want to be very, like very careful with your client. Your client really needs to be aware. What'S going on um and be alert, but it's um, they just don't care like do. I have hot water behind you on Saturday and you're, not even paying attention to what I'm doing, but I know some people they don't. So I just try to do the best. I can with bringing their hair or a head where I need it to be, so that the water does not drip on them and on myself, but a lot of times. I burn myself but for some reason I feel like I'm immune to it, and I like using this kettle to dip the braids, because it's such a large item and that I don't have to fill it up. And if there were. You know like going to be a mistake, we're close to being a mistake and water getting no neon. I mean it's not that coming because I don't feel it up remember when you're not supposed to filling up anyway and it's just so deep. So it's kind of like, if you end up hurting somebody with this burger. Somebody named you just careless, a you blind and you should not be. You know, handling hot water like that on assault. It only takes a couple of well I'm gon na say it takes less than five minutes for the water to get hot. It'S an automatic timer is gon na start boiling and normally, if it boils over that mean you win past the max line. But everything gets everything is safe and it does what it's supposed to do. I don't have any problems, so my plan should know by now, once I walk over there get that color. I think I would some water that's when you know like we pretty much. Ninety. Ninety nine percent done with your hair, like if I, if you're getting a styling, you know I got a dip. Your hair and I hate anything, turn the water on yet like don't be calling your ride, selling your riders you're done because you're not done like once. I get those flyaways and do whatever else needs to be done. Then. That'S when I do that water, you know like you, will be done within like the next ten minutes. Okay. So now I'm about to use the got to be like I love using hairspray on braids, because it gives it a beautiful look once I go over with the dryer, not only that it will help um the longevity of her curls, because you know girls can fall And drop and do whatever anything to but adding the hairspray. It kind of sticks, the curls for a longer time, indi, and I go in with my mousse or setting lotion whatever I have at the time go through with the dryer to lock it in and boom y'all know. I had to bring Kat that design essentials suit and scaps honey, because it gives instant relief for attention. Styles, it soothes the scalp it make you feel, like you got a breath of fresh air on this scalp. It feels like somebody got a peppermint in a mouth and they just born it pressed on your scalp. It feels so amazing own styles. They got attention um. I also use it to massage people scouts, but like brave stars like you really feel it working, you really feel it and on to my favorite oil, this is the tropical root. Stimulating growth oil in it smells amazing. So in case you haven't noticed, I do a lot when it comes to my braids and like I'm, not ashamed to admit that, and my clients have realized that too, and they they actually love it, because they tell me they've, never hear someone who put that much Work into a set of braids by their cousin, some people just braiding their hair - will probably some grease some water and that'd. Be that, like no, my Styles lands, my bracelets a long time, because I do put so much into it to you - know, increase the longevity of their hairstyle. So the curls have had time to sit through all of this and now it's time to cut the braiding hair off to a rebel across a pretty much. When I do that. It'S a knot at the end. So when it's time for me to cut out the braiding hair, I just go through and cut that knot off at the end and then unravel and boom. You have a curl, so I forgot. Let me explain one to be ish to so. It'S pool at this braiding accessory for her hair. This gold string so give her a pop of something because she just got to be just got ta be extra basic is not for her look at her. She happy so when doing hair well, braids accessories like the string you don't want to over it do it. Some people will only put one in some. People may only want to I kind of like to do maybe four or five like two on the lips on the right and maybe one down a center or maybe two in the back on the lips on the right. I don't I don't like to overdo it. It'S just um, looking like a Christmas tree, no too many accessories are not a good look and just like that, her braids went from a hundred to a thousand. What upgrade what the glow like girl you spy like. You are a sign y'all. I had to get on her about this Lehane thing she doing right here with her fingers cuz I was like girl. What are you doing? I was a Penitentiary at Versailles. I asked her. Were you picking boogers? Like did my recording get you picking boogers and she was like no so okay, I see she wasn't picking boogers, okay, so nobody, ladies edgeloop. The easy interest is control: coconut oil, extra strong hold baby. I'M talking Mike Tyson, strong, baby, honest Washington, strong baby with a lady's baby hers and I'm sorry yeah. I don't kill me dude, but I don't. I don't, use an inch brush tooth brush little edge brush with a little mini comment in when I'm. When I do it, I just use a regular column, I mean: is it really necessary to use what appears to be a toothbrush on somebody's hair? I don't know, I think what I do with the car works just fine but like. Why do y'all just feel the need to use the little brush or the little mini comb? All you need is like a rat tail comb, something with some teeth close together in that's all. That'S all you need so since we're doing here close the performance now she's about to score anything silly like the cross eyes and then she's gon na put on a show and yeah. She knows she cute she's poppin, so let the fun begin thanks for watching y'all. I will be back with another video expeditiously, so I'll be on the look out: okay, bye,
