Dillons and welcome and welcome back to my channel if we know here my name is Simone Alexa or you just comics to male and I'm gon na keep this short y'all. But this is just my bikini a lot of tutorial. I did this style on my sister's, so it's just gon na be me explaining exactly how I did it on her. I just wanted to pop into my face, but, like I said, we're not gon na talk too much right now, he's in trouble. She'S got a hot right to it. Watch the whole video y'all. A lot of your questions will be answered during the video and yeah. Let'S get right into it, and I really hope you guys enjoyed the video, don't forget to Like comment and subscribe. Okay. So since this is going to be a bob length, look her hair is obviously longer than a bob. So what I did was, I just took some rubber bands and I folded her hair at her desired length that she went the Bob - and I just did this basically all around her head. I did it in sections, though I didn't do it all at once, but that's just basically what I did and that's what you can do. If you want you know a shorter hair length, then your actual hair. This is the tip. This is the T y'all. That'S all you have to do. You can definitely get shorter hair if you have long hair. So the next step is to take the crochet needle and put it through the root of the braid, just as you would with like crochet hair. But this is just not crochet here, so I took the spring to his hair and I'm gon na lock it in to the needle and pull it through. So this is actually in real time, so I'm just gon na pull it through the root of the braid and I'm just gon na pull it half way. So basically, you're just gon na have one side of hair and another side. If that makes any sense, you can see it right here, so I'm just gon na take it and I'm gon na pull it as long as the braid I actually kind of found and you're gon na see later in the video. It actually works better. If you pull it longer than the braid, so it has something to like hold on to after you're done wrapping. So you just have no like real hair straggling pieces, ending I kind of had that problem, but that stopped. Basically, when I had the hair longer so then you just take it and you just wrap, wrap, wrap, wrap, wrap. Basically, she kind of wanted a more distressed look, which is why this is more of a bohemian longer than a soft lock, but I just wrap it and you could just do it as messy as possible, because that's the point of the look, you want a messy. You want it to stretch when it curly, you can leave curly pieces hanging out, but if you just keep watching the video, you can see different techniques that I use to get it distressed and really cute and really curly throughout the video. Also, I noticed, as I was doing this, the more tangled and the more like distressed the hair is when you're wrapping it the better. It looks, I'm telling y'all that's how it gets really curly and that's just how it looks so distressed and cute. So, as I was rapping, I just made sure the hair was really like detangled and brushed out and just look like really fluffy as I was wrapping and it just it completely changed the way that hair looked like. I promise y'all make sure that it's completely flipped out when wrapping once you get to the end of the log. I just rubbed it through the palms of my hands and this just seals it in make sure that it is stuck okay, it's not coming apart and I had some curly hair at the ends. You can leave this. If you want it, you can cut it off. I did a variation just depending on what my sister wanted, so this is just gon na be in fast motion until I get to the top of her head so keep watching the video y'all like just see the technique so yeah I'm doing it because each lock Is different like no lock is going to be the same, so I do advise you to just keep watching the video to see how I did it and once we get towards the top of the head, I'm gon na explain more of my technique that I did Frame her face, as you can see here, I'm pulling it up and making sure that it's tight and this is creates like a bunch in your face. So it's just a lot more distress. So this is another technique that I learned that I was doing throughout the air and just made it look ten times better in my opinion, so I had some of her blonde pieces showing a little bit just because, like this was my first time doing this. So I'm not an expert anything but basically to fix that. I just went over with some loose pieces of the spring to his hair and I just wrapped it right over the blonde pieces. You know like it is so simple. I just did it off-camera, like it wasn't in the video, but that's all you have to do to fix that if they do have colored hair, another tip is overlapping is definitely key. It creates a lot of the curl in the hair and creates it a really more distressed look. So I definitely recommend you overlapping pieces of the spring to his hair and obviously you have to overlap to cover up the braids, but I will overlap the spring trees. Hair like two or three times, and it will just make it thicker and just a lot better like it just - will look so much better once I started doing that as well. Another tip is when you're wrapping the hair make sure you're wrapping very tightly. This is to just ensure that the hair locks together perfectly and it just does not move. My tip is when you're wrapping you can just keep pushing up just ensure that it's definitely tight and locked in. That'S just what I kept doing, and it also just creates that really thick. But long look, I don't know y'all. This is just what I was learning as I was doing it and it just worked really well for me, so I'm just sharing y'all my experience just my first time, but definitely make sure the hair is tightly wrapped when you're doing this. So this is the end of my tutorial. I really hope you guys enjoyed it.
