  • Hey!!!
    I’m back with another protective style! This time I opted for mini braids. Now don’t get me wrong, I love my mini twists but I just wanted to try something different without adding hair.
    What do you prefer? Mini twists or mini braids?

    Somehow extensions damage my hair I’ll rather do natural braids.Since I stopped extensions my hair has grown much more,the hair loss was massive not anymore.

      It does the same to my daughter’s hair. She had some installed 3 times and never again. Yes, those hairstyles using hair extensions look cute, but it’s not worth it

      I recently threw away all my synthetic extensions after discovering they are made from toxic materials. You can search CZcams for the dangers of synthetic extensions to learn more. I will only use my own hair from now on.

      @Prophetess lol don't feel bad. Being slow is exactly why I won't do the mini ones on my hair. My hair is about her length and I just prefer doing them a little bigger. My daughter is always like " you can do them even if you have to stop and take breaks or take two days to do." I just don't have the patience so good luck to you!

    After cornrows, I have Mini braids. My problem I keep taking them out everyday. I put in a leave in conditioner. It seems to be habit. What can I do to keep my hands off my hair or is it okay.

    Do the braids shrink when they get wet. Do they last longer than twists.

    • @MsCatrin
      @MsCatrin  Před rokem +3

      Mine shrunk when I washed them. For me, they definitely last longer than twists. I keep my hair wrapped and try to keep my hands out of it.

    I am growing out of doing hairstyles using hair extensions. We do have hair too and can grow it like every other race. On top of that, it’s a billion dollars business, it’s not worth it. I am getting used to seeing myself with braids and twists, no extensions added. Bear in mind, I am on my third big chop and growing back my hair after a pixie-cut

    Is it best to do mini braids on blow dried hair?

    • @MsCatrin
      @MsCatrin  Před rokem +2

      For me it's best because I like to work on stretched hair. Plus I like to see my length before putting it in a protective style.
