You can pretty much use any kanekalon braiding hair you want, but I found the RastAfi to be very soft and manageable. Here;s where to find it if your local beauty supply doesn't carry it.:http://www.amazon.com/beauty/dp/B008L8...
Here's the Black & Gold hair: http://www.amazon.com/Kanekalon-Jumbo-...
Okay, so this is the braid pattern that I use for my crochet braids I just basically, I wanted it to kind of go to the side in the front, so I did some smaller ones up here and I did one right here, so we can have like A part, and then these three right here I kind of went down to the side and then in the back. I just did I'm really big and fat, and just going you know straight across and back and forth in the back. Nothing need his braids in the world, but no patent, my CDs ready, so it doesn't really matter as long as you get the pattern that you want. The way that you want your hair to fall, I'm going to come of the hair. This is what I'm going to use. This is the rest of free off real brand hair, and the color is 27 30 33. So it's all mixed together, see the colors in there. That'S right touches that and then I got one pack of the black in bold number. 27, just a solid twenty-seven, okay hi! So here we are four hours later I got most of the hair installed. I pretty much used the whole course okay, so I want to show you guys the technique that I use. I did this all throughout the whole head. Okay, so here's my brain right here and I'm taking my hook and I'm placing it underneath the braid pull it through. Okay, so you see your little hook right there you're going to get your piece of hair. Put it inside the hook, you're going to close your little flap closed, pull it back underneath the braid, so you can have a loop on one side: the side of the hook. Okay, here's your loop you're going to pull the other side through the loop twist. The loop around pull it through the loop again twist the loop around again, pull it through again: okay and then you're going to push your not all the way down to the base of the braid. Okay and that'll, give you a nice secure, hold okay! So that's what I did all throughout the hair about a million times to get it fuller, hair, okay and there's your knot and what I'm going to do to try to kind of cover this um. These knots up is I'm going to take some tiny pieces of hair and I'm going to just go along this line here and just fill it in so you're going to take your hook and go underneath right here right next to it, you're going to grab that Tiny bit of hair and you're going to stick your hair in the hook, okay and then you're still going to tie the knot. The same way that you were doing it before kind of just covers up that that line a little bit you're still going to see. Little tiny knots, but it doesn't look as obvious. It'S like that big huge. You know braid with the knots over to over the top of it. Okay. So now we need to cut the hair. This is a lot of hair huge long, so we're gon na cut it and layer it now cutting into the end kind of point cutting them, so they won't be so blunt, I'm gon na go over, and within these years also, I just don't have them with Me right now, but I'm gon na want to get back to work. I'M gon na go for the end so with the thinning shears that take out all those lines. Those really choppy ends that you see so for this hair. It is synthetic um, you can blow-dry it to get it smooth, but I'm gon na go ahead and use a flat iron. As long as you have it on a low setting, then it should be fine and not melt the hair, and you don't want to leave it on the hair very long. You just want to make really clean, quick motions. Okay, so I'm using my my Nana Jill bare Flatiron, I have it on the lowest setting that it goes, which is 300 okay, so I'm just going to take it and just very quickly run it through just to smooth it out a little bit. Okay, that's it! You can see how smooth I got. You definitely want to make one clean motion. You don't want to start and stop, because that makes creases in the hair that are very hard to get out. Okay, you can give it curve a little bit it's what you can do if you want to give it a little curve, is curve your flatter in a little bit and then, after you do it kind of hold it just for a few seconds until it cools A little bit and then release it and you'll have a little bit of a curve. Okay, you try to curve it on his own a lot of times with synthetic hair. It won't you kind of have to mold it while it's still hot, hey guys. So I went to work and I got my thinning shears and I just took - and I just been the heck out of this hair because I used so much hair. I use four packs and it was just too bulky for me and it was too heavy. So I just went in with the thinning shears and just chopped where the layers are and just pull like goblet hair out, and I really liked it a lot better. It lays a lot nicer. I blew dry it a little bit more, so I really love the texture of it, though, like it really is really close to you know if you're here, which is blown out, you know which I really like, and it has a little bit of shine to it, But it's not super shiny to wear. It just looks like you know, plastic, synthetic hair and I love the color combination. It just it mix it so well and blends it's just. I love it and I just threw a little a little twist on the side cuz when I was working and shampooing it just kept falling for it. So that was the best thing to do. I didn't leave any hair out. I just left the knots the way they are and I'm fine with it. Actually, I'm not really trying to. I don't really thinking about it believes this is my hair, so I'm gon na try to front. I think if you see the knots okay cuz it looks. I don't want to leave any hair out cuz. I didn't want to deal with any hair. You know I'm using this as like a protective style, and I don't want to keep putting heat to my hair to blend it with this hair, because the little bit of leave out that I would leave out is gon na revert immediately. You know as soon as I sweat, so I was just like forget that I'm just gon na I'm just gon na put it all in there and I like it, I like it a lot so yeah, I'm probably gon na wear it straight for a little while And then I'll curl it or I'll set it with rods or something like that. But I'll show you guys whatever and I'm doing. Okay.
