Hey darlings, so today we are going to shoot a video which is simply going to be the part 2 of `` How I Style My Box, Braids'' video.. I'Ve been wanting to make this video for so so so long and I've slacked. However, that video is a year old now and on top of that, it's about to reach 600 000 views., I'm so happy and so proud of it. That I just wanted to make sure that I give you guys more styles, and these are still going to be super quick and basic, but they're also going to be a little edgier.. So I'm going to show you guys a couple of hairstyles that I love doing for myself and the reason why these are going to be particularly edgy is because for those of you who don't know, I do have a shaved side, and that does make the looks. A little different. That doesn't stop you from doing the hairstyles that I'm doing. They look just as good on a full head of hair as they do on a shaved, side., So yeah, let's get started Alright, guys so hairstyle number 1. First, you have to separate your hair in the middle and grab a section at the front and it can be as big as you want it, but I try to make it not that big.. Then you start twisting it around itself, creating a mini bun.. I don't actually use pins, you guys can use pins. I just tend to tuck my hair in., So yeah do that on the other side as well.. Now, because I have a shaved side, I have to find a way to try to make it even.. It might take you guys, some time to get used to it, but do it and you will see it's pretty easy.. So it's as simple as that, my double bun hairstyle.. Now you can take this hairstyle a little further and create number 2.. This hairstyle isn't for everyone. You have to be a little crazy and not really care that people will look at you funny, so just go ahead and make a third bun at the back and that's it. I feel like an old school, Janet Jackson.. I don't know - and I look like Mickey Mouse from the back, so that was hairstyle number 2. Now we're going to move on to number 3., And this is basically going to be a half up half down but more, like the poetic justice. Look that everybody was rocking when the braids came back in fashion.. All you do is wrap a bit of hair around the section that you've made at the very top and you've got it. It'S that simple, Now number 4, all you got ta do is create a bun and again you need to master the art of twisting your braids. It just makes everything so easy., So you just wrap a bun by twisting your braids around and I just tuck it in. I don't use a pin. So now we're going to move on to hairstyle number 5. I put my hair to the side and start twisting. It., What you can do, if you don't have a shaved side, is put the rest of your hair to the side. The way that mine technically would be if it wasn't shaved.. What I do is I twist my hair yet again, and then I like to create a snail effect looking thing on top of my head., So this is the first time I use a pin. I just did it to secure it there.. So I have this little asymmetric hairstyle that I really like. - I don't know I love and it's super easy to do and it adds a little bit of funk. Now number six go ahead and create a bun by basically wrapping a section of your hair that you Chose around you hair., It's not a bun! Actually, my bad, but it's more like that old school high, ponytail. Yeah! I love it. I think it's fab. It'S always going to be trendy.. It'S old school Chanel., Okay, now hairstyle number 7.., basically moving on from what you just did, you're going to create what I like to call the double bun.. So you twist one section of the leftover hair and you pin it then you twist the second section of the hair and you pin it around it and you've got it Your double bun. I just think it looks cooler than a classic bun.. Now hairstyle number 8... Okay, it's kind of trickier to explain, but basically, if you don't have a shaved side, you would just be doing what I'm doing all over your head. Just creating.. twisting it. So it creates a texture at the top.. I like to call it the textured ponytail. If that makes any sense., So you're gon na keep doing that, twisting all your hair together and gathering it all together and create a ponytail by wrapping a bit of hair around the hair. You want to tie up. And there you have it, You can always pin it again. I don't pin, I just tend to tuck., It works for me and it lasts. And now for the last hairstyle you're going to grow from the previous one and wrap it into a bun.. You have more like an updo, that's a little classier for night time and what not., So there you have it guys, which one was your favourite. Let me know. Thumbs up. If you like this video and I'll, see you on my website.
