Synthetic hair is basically plastic strips so its best not to use actual human hair scissors as it will destroy the blue very quickly. I use a pair of titanium blade craft scissors for synthetic hair exclusively because it will stay sharp for longer and the blade wont get destroyed. You can also use safety razors to great effect. Also, low heat hairs like jumbo braid or expression kanekalon hairs heat style very nicely at around 270 degrees F without burning, so use flat irons and curling irons that can go down to that temperature and you can make the hair look like whatever you want. Steaming and boiled water are easier for setting it in rollers to mimic natural waves, curls and coils. The style looks great and so undetectable!
Beautiful! I used to do this all the time, a razor comb and thinning shears makes the ends look even more natural!!! also cutting while the ends are still in a slight kinky state will help to give a less blunt finish when you do fully blow it out.
Thank you! Yes i think I will do that next time 🙂
I remember you did this look using color #2 and I tried it and got so many compliments! Then I curled it and it looked divine! This is my all time favorite go to look when I want inches! Thank you for showing us what the ombré looks like because it’s fun to have variety! Also thank you for recommending that revlon brush dryer! It’s the only thing I use on my crochet now! You’re awesome☺️
I'm so happy I could help! 🥰🙂 The revlon brush is the truth! Lol
How long does the style last?
Yes, that was my question. How long does it last?
I think it would look amazing with a little bump to the ends!
I rarely subscribe to someone so quickly!! Gurllll!!
gurl, you did THAT...beautiful cut
Thank you! ❤
Love this!! This hair would be cute if cute in a bob because that look calls for that blunt cut. Going to try this on my daughter…thanks!
Very humble...... I like this look on you .... work it Sis!
Omg I loved this! The color was beautiful, Gained a new subbie 😁.
Thank you! Yes I really loved this color 🥰
i think this is the best video yet for this type of crochet. can you do one using the freetress yaky bounce. i would love to see how this would look using your technique.
Great video, I’ve been waiting for it! I once saw someone cut this hair with a razor comb so that you don’t get any blunt ends
Thank you! I'm never sure how to use those correctly lol
Girl you did that, I will definitely be trying 😊
I had quite a few questions plz:
1) does wearing this hair hurt your actual hair in the long run? As in does it make you have loss of hair or baldspots?
2) how difficult is it to take the crochet's off and how long does it take?
3) where in the US are you, and do you do other people's hair?
And finally, and definitely not least, this was Very Beautiful! Very well done! 💗
Thank you! No it don't believe so. The style is very low tension and not tight at all. Its very easy to take out. You just cut the length of the hair and then just pull the knots out. I'm in NY but i dont do other people's hair 😕. Hope this helps!
@@KearraNicole Thankyou. I appreciate it.
Thank you so much! LOOKS SO NATURAL ❤
You just gained a new subscriber!
❤❤
Absolutely amazing!!!
You are literally a genius I CANNOT wait till I take my hair out so I can try this style!!! How was the hair tho? Did it tangle easy and if so what do you do if it tangles?? Thank you!
So yes it does tangle some. You just brush it out. Watch my nighttime routine video. The curly styles pretty much stay in place
Love your channel😍. I just came across this and I will be doing this style in a few days 😊 Love the natural look ..like how my natural hair looked before I had it cut. Love this. Thanks so much for creating this amazing channel 🥰😍
Can't wait to try!
Great cut!! 💗💗 styling next 🥺🙏🏽
Thanks!! I really didn't know what i was doing just hoping for the best 🤣 Styling video coming 🙂
@@KearraNicole flexi rods or hot rollers would be great! :)
@@KearraNicole also check out the Elon Blu Crochet method on TH-cam!
@@Niyaaaac yes I fimed hot rollers already. Will try flexi rods too! And yess I saw her videos. Beautiful work! 😍
Can you do a side part tutorial! I did this style it was cute, just a lot of work. Human just don't stay in.
Thanks I love the color nice work
Thank you! 😊
You did GREAT!!!
Thank you for sharing!! great video
Oooh nice can you wear this hair ponytail or bun is the hair light weight
are you able to do a pony tail with this style?
GIRL! New Subbie I'm about to do THISSS!❤ Thank in advance
🥰🥰
Nice look! If maintained properly, about how long do you think this style would last? How long do you plan on keeping the crochet braids in your hair before you take them out?
I took them put after 2 weeks. I've had them in for 3 weeks before. You could wear it for a month im sure. Easier to keep up with wearing the hair curly
Are you kidding me? Subscribed!!
😍😍🙂
Hey I don’t know if you’ve addressed this before, but how long does this hairstyle last ?
I usually leave it in for 2 weeks but it could last longer
GOD Loves you 🙏
Your hair looks fabulous. Is there a reason why you prefer Cuban Twist hair instead of Kanekalon hair?
I read your comments. I understand now. It's because of the install grip that it holds and it lays flatter when blow dried. Thanks.
@@dogparents2340 thankss 🥰 and yes that's why
I enjoy watching ya videos , can u try color 27 blown out
I love the hair but the shedding is awful. How did you keep it from shedding so much?
How long does this style last?
Use a razor comb but good job 👏
Thankss. I will try that next time ❤
is the hair rough to use? or to style after?
How long does the hair last?
Can I use Marley twist hair for this. I can’t find the Cuban twist hair.
It depends. I've only tried marley once before but it didnt come out the same
Did the hair tangle badly?
How long did it last
Will this poof up in humidity?
No 🙂
Can you do a tutorial on curling the hair.
Yes that video is coming next week 🙂
Question. Which u might not answer cause this video is not new😂. How long did it take to do this style?
I wanna say about 3 -4 hrs
Couldn’t you save time and get the same results with buying the hair already straighten?
Probably. I just bought some straight braiding hair to see if i can get a similar result. But from what i saw straight hair can be tricky sometimes and won't lay as flat
Are you able to wash your hair with these in
I've never done it but I'm sure you can
Why do you straighten Cuban Twist hair instead of using straight hair? Really curious about that.
I actually want to try straight hair for this style. I have some now that I'll do soon. My only concern is that straight hair will slip more than kinky hair during the install
@@KearraNicole I thought that had something to do with it, but wasn’t sure if the type of hair really makes that big of a difference if you use small pieces. I’ve got some straight hair too I was thinking about installing lol so I’ll definitely be looking out for that video!
@@BijinMCMXC yea it should be fine if I use small pieces. Also may have to do more than one knot
I know you didn’t ask me but from experience with both Cuban twist and straight hair, Cuban twist gives a more natural look close to our own natural texture plus it grips better! The straight hair looked unnatural when I tried it and it unraveled quickly! Hope this helps!
@@menlolotololo4901 oh no this makes me nervous to try the straight hair lol. But this is what I was worried about. When I saw ppl use straight hair it looked kinda bulky
Why the plastic hair look more like human hair than human hair? 😮😮😮
You are always using the one hair ..can't u use like xpression or another hair because Cuban twist might be cheaper there but in other countries it's very expensive while xpression is cheaper and I would love this look with xpression
So try it with xpression and see how it comes out. I tried it with another brand and it didn't come out the same
@@KearraNicole Okay I will try it with the xpression, hopefully it comes out good and I will send a video of it to you on Instagram if all goes well
@@santriesha881 yes please do! I have another hair I will try soon
@@santriesha881 let me know too! I've done both-- Cuban hair and spectra hair. Loved the Cuban but eventually it gets so dry as you go throughout your day. But when it is blown out it looks GREAT. However, the dryness gets annoying. The spectra hair didn't get thay dry feeling as much. My next step is to test out a softer type of braiding hair and see how THAT goes🤗

I had it in for 2 or 3 weeks. Styled in different ways. The few videos after this show how I wore it
