Love, Milabu #braids #shorthairstyles
Welcome back my lovelies to another video, I hope you have it a good day so far today, I want to talk all about faux braids, so the first faux braid is going to be a pull-through braid. I think this full braid is stunning and the overall result. I think it looks like really pretty hearts. The technique to the pull-through braid is actually very easy. You just create ponytails continuing it. Take the very first ponytail from the very front of your head, split it into two sections and take the ponytail right and behind it and bring it forward through the middle and then just take a clip and just clip that second ponytail away. So you don't touch it and then the two split sections from the first ponytail you're gon na bring it to the third ponytail and combine them into one and you're. Just gon na continue this process, and if you like, this faux braid method actually have 10 different. Hairstyles, using the pull through method I'll, have it linked or right below full braid number two is one of my favorites. This is the rope twist. This one is so stunning, and I love doing this - one for wet hair for greasy hair for second day hair. The technique to this is you take a section of hair and you split it into two, and this is where the rope effect comes in. You take that first section or the bottom section, and you twist it one way, usually toward my face one two and then the other section of here, I'm gon na twist it away from my face twice one: two: I'm gon na bring that bottom section that I Twisted toward my face over the back section - and this is how you create that rope twists and I'm gon na add hair into each section, so add hair to the top section twist. It away from my face twice and then add hair to the bottom section and twist the section towards my face, and always that bottom section is closest to my face - is going to go over in that bottom section. That'S closest to my face is going to go. Always over the section behind it, the next full braid method is obviously Toxie tails. I think this method is really great. If you want a very secure hairstyle, this one will go nowhere, just because you're creating a ponytail and then your and you're creating that Topsy tail, which just secures everything even more so the technique for the Topsy tail. I just mentioned you create a ponytail. You split the ponytail in half above the clear elastic and you bring that ponytail above and under clear elastic, and that creates the Topsy tail and then to continue that you take another section of hair, including the little ponytail that we just did. And then you take another clear elastic, tie it off into a ponytail and do the same thing, split it in half and bring that ponytail up and under through the little split section that you created and that creates your Topsy tails. I also have 10 different hairstyles that I do with tops details very different, looks so, if you're into that look I'll, have the video link down below for some more inspiration. So this next method for a full braid. I like to call the faux fishtail look. So basically, what it entails is two sections of hair they meet in the back in the middle of your head and you just tie it off into a little ponytails and the trick to this is you want to work with smaller sections of hair to get that Really beautiful fishtail look and make sure all those little sections they meet in the middle on the back of your head and that overall look creates that somewhat mimics a fishtail braid. This next one is a very non-traditional kind of full braid, and I like to call it my bubble. Ponytail, the best part is, it is ridiculously easy to accomplish. You take a section of hair I like to do bigger sections for this type of hairstyle and tie it off with a clear elastic. But before I move on, I like to take a little section, hair from underneath a clear elastic and just wrap it around. The clear elastic to hide it and then I'm gon na continue adding more sections of hair, more ponytails and I like to have at least 4 to 5 ponytails all throughout as much as I can just because it gives that beautiful bubble. Look and every single, clear elastic I like to cover it with a little section of hair. Once I'm done, I go back in and I pull apart those little bubbles just to give it that really bubble esque effect and that texture dimension that comes with it. Oh, it's so stunning. I love this look. This next method is called the 3d braid, but there is no breeding involved. This one you're going to utilize rope twists and I've actually never done a video on this before so I'm going to show you guys right now very quickly how to do it. So, with this 3d braid, I'm gon na create two rope twists and I'm basically going to combine them together, but the first rope twist is going to have the front section going over the back section. The second rope twist is going to have the back section going over the front section, so the first section over the back section. So this becomes the first section, one two towards my face and then over the back section, one two over the back one, two over the back one, two over the back. Let me see how it's creating that rope effect, so I'm just going to quickly finish it off. I'M going to tie it off with a clear elastic. So now, with the second rope twist, I'm going to take the back section away from the face one two, but it's gon na go over the front section, one tube over one tube over one two. So now the trick is you actually just take the sections together and you just twist them into one. So you take the front and you just twist it over the back and just continue twisting it, and then you get that beautiful, 3d braid. It looks so intricate, but it's actually very simple. Just look at that. It looks so intricate, but you're only doing twists. You just put them together, it's so cool, but I think this idea for a 3d braid is super stunning, very intricate, but really easy to do. Of course, there's so many other different beautiful renditions for full braids. These are just my top six. So for today's Christmas giveaway, you guys have been loving t3 hair styling tools, so I wanted to give away another one. This is their clip rotating barrel. It is their 1.25 inch. So if you don't like wands - but you do like clips this, one is for you, of course they had their single pass technology, which of course, is going to keep the temperature all consistent throughout the barrel. You'Re not gon na have any hot spots, and it's rotating. How cool is that the rules for this one are simple: it was still kind of different, since this is the season of giving and not receiving. I want you to name a friend that would love this rotating barrel or curling iron. I don't know it'd just be really nice. Surprise so obviously must be subscribe to this channel and then just honestly tag a friend either on Facebook or Instagram, and let them know that you want them to have this barrel. Thank you for watching this video spending time with me and I'll see you guys tomorrow. Bye

She pays for and takes me to my piano lessons, she takes me to school when it is too cold to walk to the bus stop, she takes me out to Chick fil A and does so much more! She lets me practice hairstyles on her and takes me to the mall and buys stuff for me even when I don’t have any money. I love her so much and she is my only grandma. Thanks so much Milana.❤️❤️❤️❤️

I'm honest, I never really tried out what I see (because I'm really untalented) but I love the styles.

So thank you!❤

Born in CA, mom always cut my hair short. Then said tubby girls look terrible in long hair and I stayed with it. Then hubby and son. Loaded us and we moved to KY, and the humidity gave me curly hair and a perspiration issue. So I grow it to wear it up to keep col. Ok, yeah.. . Mail me a bill for the therapy. Here’s my problem...I just turned 55, and I wonder if these braid hairdos are meant be for you young girls? . I can topsy tail my head off... but any others tried, my arms are dying within minutes. However I would love to do more braid styles but fear I may look childlike/ridiculous...lol. Please advise❤️ Your biggest fan, Tere
Taseen Bari: Hey Milana....what haircut do you have? Does it have layers? Love your videos btw! And do we have a fam name yet??

Spiffybean09: Can you please show how you cover your elastic with a section of hair? I can never figure out how to pin it properly. Thanks!
Kayte Gilchrist: Love the videos
Suné Blommie: I do the rope braid a lot but I only add from one side (the side closer to the back) I wear it to school a lot with a cute pony on the side of the braid.
Emily Greene: Love it I sadly don’t have friends really so I would just give it to my mom. She doesn’t social media
Eva Castillo: I love your ideas since I cut my hair your Chanel has been my lifesaver I’ll give this to my sister she is a hardworking mom
