How To: Part Hair For Rubber Band Method Crochet Styles | Abby Jahaira

Hey guys, what's up welcome back to my channel, my name is Abbi. If you're new today, i'm going to be sharing my method on how i like to part my hair and prepare my hair for any passion twists or any rubber band, crochet method that you would like to use. So, let's get right into the actual parting of the hair, which to me is the most frustrating most difficult thing to do. This is the method that i use and it's full transparency on what i do so first, i take the bottom part of my hair and I divide it from the top part of my hair. This is what you see me doing here, just basically creating a section at the bottom and then once I do that I go ahead and take that bottom portion, and I divide it into a second half to create two rows. So once I feel like I have a decent subsection, I go ahead and divide that section into my pieces in this back section. What I'm gon na be doing is just dividing it into three sections. For my twist I take some of my styling gem and I apply it around the perimeter of that piece and then I take my rubber band and I tie it no more than four or five times. I want the rubber band to be able to hold a hair pretty tight, but I don't want to be in pain with the tightness of the rubber bands. If that makes sense here, I'm actually showing you guys the craziness that I go through to try to perfect the line, and this is just to say and to show that your lines do not have to be perfect as long as you're doing a decent line. A decent size for your boxes. I think that should work, because I tend to frustrate myself because I'm such a perfectionist when I'm parting, my hair, but really it doesn't matter because this is the back of your hair. First of all, it's not gon na really be seen, but also you're, doing your hair by yourself, like you can't expect this thing to be like OD, perfect. You feel me so just do the best you can, as I did here. I fast forwarded through this entire clip because I was huffing and puffing and getting so frustrated that my line was not coming out perfect. They ended up working at the end of the day, but just don't stress yourself. This, like it's gon na look good regardless. Just do the best that you can out for the rest of my hair. What I did was continue doing the you part around my head. So after this section I started doing it from the top of my ear, like from the front part of my hair. All the way around and you'll see me doing this throughout the entire video. I pretty much went ahead and did my box sizes at a decent size like the size that I thought was okay, my boxes were pretty much like medium large. I didn't want to go for anything too small and then I want to go for anything too large because I didn't want to spend the entire night parting, my hair in total. It took me about an hour or so to do my box parts for some people. It might be faster, but because I spent so much time trying to perfect my line, which don't waste your time again, don't waste your time doing so, but because I spent so much time trying to perfect my line. It took me about an entire hour to do at the front. What I did was divide that into two pieces, and then I took one side and divided it into two more pieces. So in total I had four rows in the front of my head and in each row I did four boxes using the same method. I took some of my styling jam, applied it around the perimeter of each box, and then I tied each section four or five times using my rubber band and of course, the most important piece that I always mentioned is the flicking of the baby hair. I just took some Jam and applied it on my baby hairs and then with my little edge brush. I just so whooped my baby hairs until they were where I needed them to be. Do not forget to all your scalp for my scalp, I'm using the lux mane Ayurvedic oil cocktail. It is my favorite oil cocktail right now. If you have me on Instagram, you would see that I am in love with this oil cocktail and I'll link it below. In the description box, so here you guys have my results.
