- Welcome to the basics series! This series is for the folks that have long hair for the first time, or simply are at a loss as to how to go about fixing it. I hope to add skills to your repertoire with this series and have you feeling confident when it comes to doing your own hair.

perhaps you could do a more detailed tutorial on how to properly insert hairpins & bobby pins, & hairstilcks & the like? I know I had trouble with them for the longest time. Heck, I still have trouble, but I think that's more due to my hair texture than anything else. They still like to slide out ^_^
defenitly your texture, i have always known how to use them and they just don't want to co operate with my hair i cannot make a long lasting updo if i don't do it on top of a dutch braid or i curl my hair first and even then bobby pins slide out after awhile (i might want to invest in stronger pins, my mom told me they made them way better way back when so we probably live in an era of widely available shittily made pins) pin curl pins work great on me so when i want to secure something on my head i use those (plus they kinda look like dutch oorijzers which is fun)
A refresher on French/Dutch braiding would be nice, particularly with regards to hand holds as I can never seem to work that out without getting all twisted up. Also tips on how to do them on the sides of your head and/or tips for those with more limited range of arm/shoulder movement.
I JUST learned how to dutch braid. WOO HOO!!!!!
Not the point of thr video, but your makeup looks GORGEOUS.
Your videos saved me from chopping all of my hair off before I reached waist length. Fan for life!
Want to thank you for being a long hair stalwart on socials all these years, so kind and generous. Sharing your life, not always perfect like some try to pretend, but always awesome. Rock on beautiful lady 😘
When I was first learning, I had a lot of trouble with different holdy-uppy things. The person who was teaching me had quite coarse, grippy hair, I have silky, slippery hair, so things she praised (bobby pins, u-pins) I could not get to work at all at all. Cue me thinking I was being an idjit when it really was mostly just my hair texture. So, you know, an introduction to different sorts of pins and sticks and forks and clippies and flexis and all that good stuff might be useful?
Love the flower background! And what is this ponytail wizardry?!? I'm a hand switcher. Must re-learn!
Me too! It's witchcraft! I just had to make a ponytail to work out what I do as it is so automatic. I shall endeavour to try this new way more often!
Just want to thank you for teaching me how to rope braid, as I was able to teach my son how to do it, which makes it easier on me :) . I have enjoyed your videos very much.
Liking the blue eyeliner.
Thanks for this basic instruction! For some reason I could never figure out how to make the braid consistent once I pulled it forward over my shoulder to braid in front of me. It never occurred to me I had to start braiding with an UNDERNEATH motion. It's possible I never would have figured it out without watching this video.
Love you,too. Live long and prosper.
Of course you explain things well! I've been coming back for years for a reason! I'm glad you did this tutorial because I had been told my sons knew how to braid (in high school a buddy of theirs had long hair). Then I broke my arm! And discovered that they knew the concept but not how to functionally do it. Holding the strands and keeping a certain tension is really part of the picture! This video will help a lot of people.
Wow, this is literally for me. (I'm honored to be one of your "ladies" by the way.)
Love how bendy your shoulders are, omgeee!! I'm 47 and don't have near that range. The 'how to get the braid from behind you to over your shoulder' explanation was awesome. I've been doing unbraided cinnabun for a while now, thanks to you. Otherwise this mop would be a lot shorter than it is already (done 3 quarantine hair trims now and I know I'm going off the rails LOL, but it's always in the cinnabun and I'm happy and that's what matters). Love you! So good to hear from ya :) From British Columbia
These styles are basically the only ones I know and have used with any regularity. Once I believe I watched either you or someone else do a fishtail braid and I put my hair half up and fishtailed the pony part. I love the look of that braid but my arms got sore after awhile lol. Thanks for showing how to get a smooth ponytail. I typically have problems with that especially the underside of the ponytail. I am a hand switcher with the hair tie. I have never liked the using the free hand thing because I have a ton of broken pieces on the sides of my hair (long embarrassing story) and I always think those pieces will fall out of the ponytail and the ponytail itself will be on the loose side no matter how many times I wrap the hair tie around. I also like a good English braid. Very easy and just gives a ponytail a little something extra. My hair has lost a lot of thickness due to the stress of the past year and I don’t feel like buns are going to be particularly noticeable on my hair. Maybe if I braid it first I can give the illusion of more thickness. Just a suggestion but since you have been on TH-cam for at least a decade maybe you can make an entire series for your new subscribers on all the basic techniques you use to make the more complicated styles. Next can be French braid vs Dutch braid vs lace braid.
Your bang trimming video encouraged me to trim more of mine, I love them. I made "curtian" bangs. You also taught me how to rope braid and hauser braid. I am trying to relearn the Dutch or French braid. A simple tutorial on that would be cool! I know you have one from years ago, yes?
I am here for all of it while I still have hair.
so glad to hear from you
I absolutely LOVE your makeup today! The blue eyeshadow is such a nice pop of color.
I finally have long enough hair to do fancy updos and whatnot, but first I need to learn the basics. I can't wait to build up my repertoire!
Also, where can I access your amazon list? I very inexperienced when it comes to what tools I should use for my hair.
I forgot. It's here: www.amazon.com/shop/torrinpaige
@@torrinpaige thank you!
I always struggled with keeping my dutch/french pigtails straight! One is usually pretty good, but the other goes an a walk about over half my head! Liking this eye make up!
Miss your videos so much.
I liked this :) my big problem is still french/Dutch braiding - I know you have several videos already about this but I really struggle with how to separate my hair as it is so long and floofy and prone to grabbing on to itself that I run out of arm. And I need a third one to hold and split it, if that makes sense?
I can, at least, just about manage a French braid now though thanks to you - and learning a nautilus bun from you was life changing!
Do you cut your hair at home? Any tips on the growing process? This is my first time at BSL ever! Problem is, my hair just seems very prone to split ends.
Love this.
Very good review.
I checked out your Amazon shop (the link in the description isn’t a live link btw) but I didn’t see the nylon hair ties you used. Maybe I’m blind, but I only saw the burly bands, extra wide betiteto bands, Wenobby ultra thick, and some shiny disco scrunchies 🕺🏻💃🏼
The betitetos. I'm not sure why the extra wide ones were linked instead of the normal size, but I fixed it.
@@torrinpaige thank you!
I have been awakened by my hair strangling me. Not my favourite experience. But I am a tosser when I sleep, so things get moved around.😕
I need height for an up do,,I'm short.....Thanks so much..please do a video with fulness on top & then a bun in the back.......
What did you do? You look younger. And I'm curly/wavy and still get bubbles.
Eyes look great, but what did you do to your lips?
As always, just playing with the shape with makeup. Lol. Trying out new techniques.
@@torrinpaige You go! LOL
I know you probably get sick of doing this, but maybe your hair routine again for this year? It’s been a while.
Absolutely nothing has changed. Lol. I am a creature of habit.
Make stuff up? Just kidding. It’s great to have you back!
Is it easier to braid with the ponytail made vs not beforehand?
I think it helps when learning to braid. Anytime I'm learning a new braid, I always start with a ponytail until I get it down pat.
@@torrinpaige Thank you!!
Hey friend. I hope all is well
I am missing you dear🌷
Torrin, do you still have a patroon?
Yup, it's still there. Lol.
Still struggling with the dutch.
Me too!!
