Hello, you guys I am coming to you today with a hairstyle. I changed my hair. I'Ve been wearing wigs for the past couple of months and I just wanted to try something a little new and something that I've never tried before. Since I am venturing off into the hair styling journey, I don't know what Scott, but anyway, this is called. Crochet, braids or tree braids is what they call it on YouTube: crochet braids tree braids. I don't know whatever they call it. It'S one of those two and it's not a weave. It'S not a wig. It'S basically, I'm crocheting loose hair into French braids. So you would French braid your hair down and you could leave somehow you leave some your hair out, like you would do a weave like I've done or you can just break everything down and wear it like that too. I chose to use this hair, which is the braiding hair like the normal braiding hair. You would do you would used to do French braids. You know the kind you did no sweetie different mineral water and gravel and have them all. You know crinkly. So this is basically that loose hair for $ 5.99. You nice thing it's always cheap and the texture is very natural, as you can see, and it kind of mimics black people here blow-dry it. I blow dried my hair right up here, so I left mine out blow-dried it even on the sides. You can get that this kind of hair, like you know, at corner stores. If you live in the hood or like me or you can get them from a hair store, but it's always cheap. It'S always like nothing almost so yeah. This whole thing cost me about hmm. So I got two for $ 5. So basically, ten dollars - and you can French braid your hair by yourself or have a friend the way, and I had my mom cut it and she's, not a professional. But she did a really really good job. And I love it and it's so easy. And it's just basically crocheted like see the little knots around the braid, so it's just and then you can just pull it and they come out like not like pull when you pull it down like you can brush it like it's. Your hair, like it's not going anywhere. Oh my gosh, you see - and this is the back my gosh, so I guess this is my new thing, because it's so easy. I did it by myself and I have my sister like the family was involved. I had my sister braiding my hair down and have my mom cut it and I did the crocheting part. So if you are interested in like a more detailed review or how to do it, I will be glad to take some out and then redoing, so that you'll know how to get this look, and you can do this like with any type of hair like curly, Hair look on YouTube crochet hook. It excuse me so just look on YouTube, crochet, braids and there's a lot of different people doing different kinds of hair like curly hair, this kind of hair, which is 100 % cackle on okay, that sounds expensive, but it's the braiding hair, the normal French braiding hair That comes in that big jumbo braid in a long pack. This is what this is from. You can get this texture to be more like a perm texture if you blow dry it, but I don't want that because my hair is not burned and it makes it more shiny - and this looks so natural to me that I'm scared to even do that. I was thinking about you know a different styles. I can do you can roll it dip it in water. You know how you dip it. You can braid it dip it in water. You know how you get the crinkly look, so I'm gon na be doing a lot of things with this hair, it's so inexpensive and it's great so yeah. So I hope you like and please comment if you like it also and yeah. Let me know how you feel about this new. Oh my gosh, you go. You

Elizabeth Rosette: thanks you! :)
Hannah H: It lasts however long you decide to maintain it, if you are good with taking care of your hair when you have in extensions it'll last without tangles. That means unnecessary yanking it with a comb/brush, wrapping it at night, and keeping it brushed with a plastic wide bristled brush. Also, you can flat iron it on low/medium heat, and also blow dry it if you do not prefer the poofy, "natural" look. It looks just like a sew in with straight hair remy hair when you blow dry it and flat iron it.
