If you are interested in watching on how to turn my knotless braids into locks, make sure you keep on watching. Hey y'all: hey y'all, okay, so you first want to start up with your braids your twist or whatever you have in so i have seven packs of freetress hair. I end up having six, but i need an extra pack, so i got seven. Then you'll need some edge control scissors, nail glue, uh edge, brush and um crochet. Needle now y'all know the drill. Y'All got ta, stick the crochet needle through the braid or your twist or whatever it is. Then what you want to do is separate the hair. You know from the last locks video separate the hair, get it more frizzy. Now i'm sticking the crochet knee in now, i'm just pulling through the hair from through the braid, so i'm attaching the freetress hair on the crochet needle and just pulling it through making sure both ends of both strands are on each side. Now you want to wrap the row by like three four times and then wrap all the way down, make sure that your um hair is like flat when you're wrapping, not all like bunched up and wrapped like make sure it's flat and spread it out when you're Wrapping cover the whole braid, your girl was definitely struggling because it was tangled, but it's okay, you it get. You get used to it. Okay, now it's just speeding up and i'm just wrapping it all the way down. Um. If you haven't seen my last blocks video, you pretty much know the gist of this step. Now, i'm about to add another strand in and then keep wrapping, because my locs are, i mean my knot. Lips are long, so i have to add, like more hair. In so what i'm doing right here, i just took so i split one piece of freetress hair in half and i only use one half of it, because i literally only had a little bit left to go for wrapping. So i didn't eat the whole thing and waste the whole thing we're not wasting nothing here. We now waste no hair. So i just use half of that strand to finish wrapping the ends now. Y'All know you got to put the nail glue in to seal it and palm roll your locks with your hands, and now what i'm doing is just cutting a little excess hair off um at the end, i'm gon na do it all over again, but i'm just Doing it and this how she'll look at the end, so now i'm just showing y'all again in the front um. So with the front, you want to make sure you retouch up the front. So all i'm doing is adding some edge control and then i'm going to twist the roost on the opposite direction of where my hair is at yeah. I'M gon na show y'all, though so i'm just putting some edge control on brushing it in, and i'm gon na show you the way that you should twist your edges and what this is doing is just making it kind of like refreshed and making it still kind Of tight, so it won't be like looking frizzy at the ends. I mean at the roots. Now i'm just going back and add another freetress strand onto the crochet needle and pulling it through and just repeating the steps. So with your edges, when you want to redo your edges, just make sure you add edge, control, um twist it the upper direction of your face and it's going to look fresh and new in the front and you show them should do it in the front. So so this is half of my hair done, half lock, half not list. Is it giving or no who still says or not, but anyways super cute y'all? I just love a lock like i just love a lock. You can never go on locks like not gon na lie. I was throwing myself a bit, don't be hating so now everything's about to be just sped up, because if y'all need to rewind it or slow it down, y'all can but yeah everything's about to get sped up just retouching on my edges and about to get to Wrapping so yeah just watch this video throughout and i'll come back after we're done all right, y'all, so we're done wrapping and, as you can see, the ends look a mess. Okay. So now i'm just going to take each strand and snip the ends off because it's literally frizzy and like tangled up so we want to get them all, separated and not like to stuck together. Like you see all that frizz and everything we cut all that off. You got ta make it looking. Neat can't have nappy ends so now we're going to take some flexi rods. Um i'd use the orange ones, but um it shouldn't really matter which ones you use, but your ends are still covered the same way. So this is just giving my end some curl, so i won't be straight um. This gives it more of a natural, more organic. Look to your locs makes it all flow and blend together, because if you just leave it like that, it's not giving how much it's gon na give when it's curled at the end. So y'all gon na see it's cute. So i use about like five four five. So yeah five! So now i'm just dipping them in some hot water, because so it can set and curl up quick and make sure y'all do it over a sink and also put a towel down because it gets wet. I burn myself as you can see. Now. I'M taking a towel and just squeezing that excess water off the lots, because it's gon na be dripping when we take it down. I'M not gon na lie, but we're trying to soak up most of the water as we can now. I'M unraveling the ends and, as y'all can see it's about to give off a really cute curl, nothing too perfect, and that's what you want with lots. You don't want nothing too perfect, which i see it is giving flexi rod set. I just really love how i did my ends. Like i mean i love that i have the brown ends. I just feel like they give us a nice little touch very cute and natural. Looking like it looks like it all flows like i just dyed. My tips brown, it's super cute and excuse that one extra long lock, i was gon na cut it, but i'm like i'm gon na leave that one looking unique so i'm gon na just keep it but yeah. I have one extra like long lot, but i'm gon na keep it though, but that is really it for this uh tutorial at this point, i'm just playing with my hair, showing your different styles, showing you how to back up it. It'S gon na give y'all it's giving super cute all right. That'S the end of this video. Thank you guys so much for watching. I hope you enjoyed the video yes comment down below what you guys.
