Hey Beauty!

VIDEO SUMMARY 

This video was made to give you my honest opinion on doing your own box braids. Just wanted to share with you ladies my experience. I've never had box braids before and if I could, I would go back and change a few things but right now I don't have another 7-9 hours to work on these braids. 

DIY projects are fun but not always easy and I just want you ladies to be informed on my pros and cons in order for you to determine if you just want to go to a professional. 

My Tips:

- Don't purchase hair that is too straight or too kinky.
- Don't purchase hair that is too long.
- Either do small sections or big sections.
- If you do big sections use a lot of hair to make jumbo braids.
- If you do small sections, use a medium amount of hair. (Not to small of an amount)
- Be prepared to braid for hours and have a day planned to do nothing but braid.
- If you have short hair, use gel to seal the hair sprouting out of your braids.
- Boil your hair in boiling hot water (Only the ends)

Hope these tips helped!
