$24 Lazy Girl Versatile Crochet Braid Pattern - Sensationnel Lulutress 2X Kinky 4B & 2X Coily 3C

Hey you guys, thanks for coming to check out another tutorial, so today's tutorial is a crochet um. This is going to be a lazy girl version. You guys um with some tried and true hair, that i absolutely love and have been using for years um. This braid pattern is my typical, invisible crochet braid pattern, um for when i do loose curly hair crochet, i use a different, invisible, braid powder for when i'm using like locks or passion twists. This one is for curly loose hair crochet, so i always keep a little bit of leave out for my own natural hair and then i braid six cornrows going straight back with a middle part. This allows you to have three different um parting options. Once you finish your crochet um, actually you can have even more than that with this braid pattern, so you're gon na section off your hair um in the middle and then you're gon na braid, three cornrows going straight back and then you're gon na braid, one cornrow Going straight up and i sort of braid it going straight up and then i turn it so that it is going to the back. So by the end of one half of your head, you're going to have your leave out section in the front, your three cornrows at the top and then your cornrow that's going straight up and to the back and then you're going to repeat that. On the other side, once you're done with that you're going to braid two cornrows going across the back of your head across the nape of your neck and then you're going to start braiding braids just going straight down um these two braids going across just help to Take the tension off the nape of your neck, okay, and it also allows you not to overly fill the back of your head and i'll show you why, once i start um putting in the curly hair now it's time to start the cornrows in the back. That are going straight back. You want to make sure that you make the cornrow um sort of like in the middle of your middle part, because you don't want that part. That'S in the middle to just continue all the way to the nape of your neck. You want to kind of break where that middle part is and create a new cornrow section, because it just creates a more seamless transition to the back of your head. If that you know that cornrow, i don't know how to say if that part isn't going all the way to the nape of your neck. I hope that makes sense um. I don't know if it does i'm terrible at explaining braid patterns, but i hope that makes sense, and then you want to just incorporate those other braids into cornrows going straight down. Those can be as big or as small as you want them to be. The hair that i'm using today is the lulu tress in two different, two different curl patterns: it's the kinky 4b and the coily 3c. These are both two times and they're, both in the color number four, which is my absolute favorite um color to crochet into my hair um. It'S my favorite color for wigs too, and these are pre-separated and pre-looped they're super easy to work with i've been working with this hair. Like i said for years, i used to use this hair when i was making wigs back in the day um. So i just wanted to show you here. You definitely want to leave a lot of space and you don't want to crochet into that second cornrow, okay, so leave that second cornrow open and just create a lot of space in between where you're placing the cornrows. You also want to pull down that area. That'S threaded together! You don't necessarily need to take that threaded area out, but you do want to pull it down enough to get your finger into that loop so that you can more easily crochet the hair in continue to crochet the hair in very, very spaced out, because this hair Is super full and voluminous? It doesn't take a lot of pieces to give you a lot of fullness okay, so you can see how spacey and gappy i am installing this hair, but i promise you in the end it comes together perfectly fine. Now i know everyone's going to ask me: well: where did you install the kinky 4b and where did you do the coily3c? There was absolutely no rhyme or reason to where i did them. I just made sure that i installed the same amount of each one. So the back of my hair is two full packs, one of the curly 3c and one of the kinky 4b. So you guys, i got super busy, and this is literally two days later i literally was running around dc with half of my hair crocheted. Yes, my whole entire braid pattern was like showing, but i had so much to do you guys. I didn't have time to crochet my hair, so what i did for the front was to just loose those pre-separated sections. I cut that loop and excuse me not the loop. I cut that thread that was holding it together and just separated the pieces, as you can see they separate so nicely and so easily into super super small pieces. It just makes it so easy to work with. In the end, so i just wanted to show you guys how the hair is blending and mixing together. I love these two curl patterns together. They look so so good and so natural. If you've been watching my channel for any length of time. You probably know that i love to blend two different textures and curl patterns together. I absolutely adore the way that it turns out. It just gives the hair so much more texture, so much more of a natural look and a natural flair. So if you ever see two different curl patterns that you feel will go together, um definitely try it out and, like i said, i've been using these two together for years and they look great so i started um applying the installing the hair in the front. I totally forgot you guys to start using the invisible knot technique in the front, so i literally was just using the regular one knot technique in the front, and i was super happy with the way it turned out anyway. You guys it's not like a super invisible, because i didn't use the invisible knot, technique, um, because i just spaced out and forgot. I had so much on my mind, but i actually liked the way the hair came out. So i still wanted to show you guys this tutorial, so at the top i just started using really small pieces. I think i was using two of the pieces, the pre-separated pieces together and, like i said i wasn't even doing the invisible knot technique, but it still come out, came out, looking really really nice and really natural um. I kind of teased the hair a little bit just with my fingers. I didn't use um anything else to tease the hair out, because this hair is really fluffy and bouncy and big. So it's just not necessary. I didn't feel like, and i just this is a lazy girl crochet. I just didn't feel like you know doing all that. Sometimes you just don't have the time or energy, and if you want a style that looks great, when you don't have the time or energy, then you might want to look into this hair assist because it's pretty fire. Oh, so you guys, this is the finished. Look. Finally done and these front pieces always drive me nuts, on a curly crochet, you have got to trim those front pieces, otherwise you will be out here looking like shaggy the dog um. So if nothing else just trim it into face framing layers around your face - and you know if you can't see the back or figure out what to do with the bag, just at least trim those long pieces in the front that is like my pet peeve. When i see crochet long in the front like that, so just give yourself a good trim, a bomb haircut. I know you guys always ask me for a crochet hair cutting tutorial in depth. That is coming you guys. I'M definitely going to do that, for you all um just bear with me, so you guys i did the other side off camera. I threw some makeup on i'm going to go ahead and take out my leave out just brush it lightly to blend it in or just comb it lightly to blend it in, and that's literally all i did so at the end of the tutorial. I am going to show you what it looks like with um your baby hairs gel down, but i know that everyone doesn't like their baby hairs, gel they just like their natural hair. So i'm definitely showing you both options with just your natural hair pop in and with your baby hairs laid okay. So again, you've got so many options in terms of styling. This hair, you can part it in three different places. You can wear it half up half down, you can wear it with two ponytails. You can wear it all up. It'S just super versatile and that's why i love this braid pattern, even when you feel like being lazy and not putting a whole lot of time. If you use this braid pattern, you will still have a super, versatile and super natural looking crochet with not a lot of effort and time. You guys so definitely get into this braid pattern, because it's definitely fire. So i know everyone's gon na ask me what type of edge control did. I use i'm not at liberty to say yet um soon enough, i will be able to let you know which edge control i'm using. So this is the final result. You guys. I'M super duper happy with this um outcome. I feel like this hair looks super cute and so wearable i've been wearing it for several days now and i'm super happy with it. Let me know what you guys think of this curly hair. I absolutely love it.
