So I finally tried it- Human hair crochet packs from the beauty supply store. Yay or Nay?
Hair link- pre looped type: amzn.to/2K2N0Hj
standard type: amzn.to/3ceIeT7
Original crochet tutorial-
• VERY DETAILED Straight...
In this video I show how to use human hair crochet and how to work with the elastic bands to create an invisible part with the crochet hair that can be worn in multiple parts- a middle part or a side part or both. This is a great protective style for black women with or without natural hair.

I've used the Saga human hair crochet same hair 5 times. I absolutely love it!!!!
Sherry Philson How many packs did it take for you?? :)
It didn't last for me.
What length did she use here we've all been asking
She used 5 packs so the cheapest I found was 39.99 a pack soooo 200.00. I'll do a lace front.
Boo Bie how you no she used 5 packs she didn't say
I FOUND IT FOR 34.99,ON AMAZON BUT ITS THE OTHER BRAND,&IM DEFINITELY USING A LACE FRONT LOL..
It's definitely a good guess. I've watched a few human hair crochet vids and they all said they used 5 packs🤷🏾♀️
Money not the issue the problem is i dont want anything sewn or glued to my head no shit nor shade to anybody who does just not for me
Lmaooooooo
Thanks for the video. I'm going to try this hair. I wanted to put in weave hair but that's too much for me. I love crochet because I can treat my scalp. This would be perfect for me.
Glad this helped(:
Love the hair! I have the curly hair and colored it. Can wet it and it bounce back in a kinky curl. No complaints here!
Natasha Pruitt how many packs did u use and how is the hair now?
I used to think this hair was a severe waste of money because it was so expensive for crocheting and a sew in would cost essentially the same. Then I realized that this could be reused and for someone with scalp issues, this hair can see the water without going to pieces. So, I equate it to doing microbraids with human hair. If you’re willing to pay the price you’ll have more style versatility and your care routine would more closely mirror how you’d care for your own hair. You wouldn’t be wasting products on synthetic fiber. That said, I still like my inexpensive synthetic hair.
A updated video on the hair would be nice
Susan McKay Agreed
I know that tangled badly
I would have loved an install to see pieces saved. Or a reinstall. How does it look now
You would think one would heat test before all the work installing the hair 🤷🏽♀️
Damn 60$ for that, but sale price 35.. Issa no from me lol. But it is beautiful hair love the loop idea
Ik y’all aren’t sitting here complaining that 30 dollar HUMAN hair is expensive... I- 💀
well I mean yeah generically it isn't expensive but you still don't know peoples budget lol believe it or not $30 may not be expensive to you but it could be to someone else
that’s just for one pack ..
@@blazefl4me it’s human hair is you can’t afford it it’s not a big deal there are nice synthetic brands
@@sarenity324 I’m sorry but no not at all it’s human hair. Unless you want shit quality 30 probably around the cheaper side
@@sarenity324 it’s almost as if you missed the part where it says human hair
Genuine question: what’s the point of this? I know for myself the real thrill of crochet is the price. Usually $5 per pack, for 5 packs puts me at $25. But with this, doing some quick math 5 packs at $30 is $150, might as well get a sew in for that. I suppose someone who has allergic reactions to synthetic hair might benefit, but again, why not a sew in? Like I said not trying to be nasty, just curious. Hell, I might jump on the bandwagon myself if there’s an actual good reason.
Kayla Elaine I hear you, maybe it's just how simple it is and the fact you can get to your scalp better than a sew in
I still believe its cost effective because the hair for a sew in on top of the cost of installation could be over $300. (Unless you're doing it yourself) I can crochet hair in myself , so I would save $.
Kayla Elaine less annoying than needle and thread and wont prick
I'd probably crochet a u part wig with the hair & just do my leave out when I wanna wear it
Kayla Elaine human hair is better quality and you can reuse it.. synthetic or fiber hair tangles
I was so glad I found out that there is human hair for crochet. I think I'll just get a pack for making a ponytail band. Thanks for the heads up!
Oh my goodness. This could be a real winner for me because I get allergic reactions to synthetic hair. Thanks so much for exploring this option and sharing!
Any time!
Hey dear...am so glad I can see this...I learnt about you from your Mum in midland Texas...you’re doing a good job honey...keep it up
GraceWorld beauty hey just found your channel hopefully you can subscribe back
Aw☺️ thank you so much
Love this! I recently learned how to crochet on my own, so I'm definitely gonna have to try human hair. Ive never had sew ins and i will never get them because whatever style I do, I need to be able to access my scalp and hair whenever I want, period. Not tryna have my hair hid away for months without being able to reach my scalp and end up with molded hair 😂. Thanks for the video! ❤️
lol, glad you enjoyed it!!
Hi Seun. Thanks for sharing. Quick question, how many packs of natural hair did you use for that style and which length?
Thanks
I would love to see how this style holds up after a few weeks...
How do you take it down and still be able to keep this human hair for additional crochets?
It's very easy to take down without messing up the hair. You just unloop the elastic part
Seun I would love to see a reinstall/update thanks for making great videos 👍✅
Thank You! I wondered if the tree method- pulling one section through the loop instead of both- would work to camouflage the anchor braids. (5:05 - 5:06) Thank you, you have saved me time, money and frustration.
Nice video Seun. Finally human hair crochets. I would really like to try them.
I really like how the texture looks!! I think I would try that hair!! Loving your video's so creative, an helpful!!
Thank you!❤️
Can you please do an update on this video about how it lasted plzz❤️
Crochet hairstyle is meant to be a fast an inexpensive way to still slay without hurting your pockets n sitting for 5+ hours I say no matter of fact hell no I'll continue slay my cheap 3.99 a pack crochet hair..but it looks good on you
Hey, what brands do you suggest. First time for me..
Alexya Propes and the style will last longer because it won’t matte up like the synthetic hair
It’s is definitely cost efficient it looks better it’s more versatile and the hairstyle will last twice maybe even 3 times longer
This is a one time purchase tho, if you wanna do crochet all the time you're spending more money in the long run. You can reuse these and they dont tangle like crazy like the cheat synthetic ones and they're real hair
@@AnnaMontanaa Freetress!
This was quite informative! Thx for the upload. I'm one of those people who 1) doesn't wear weaves but 2) works out a lot [yoga, hiking, swimming, Krav maga, rowing etc.] so this is a happy medium for me *especially* when travelling abroad. It did make me wonder how the hair would've looked on you had you given the whole thing some really nice loose curls but just the one you did was promising and once it reverted on camera I was curious. It is human so I expected it to cost more than typical synthetic packs so that's fine by me. I look forward to enjoying the versatility!! ☺
The saga hair comes in yaki straight texture too. So that might be an option for versatility.
Okay so i remembered why i never do crechet any more! i tried the "braidless method.. and when i was taking it out i cut out a chunk of my hair in the front! yikes. I had the sense to use a net for the back part and it was easier! PROTIP *use a weaving or netted cap to crochet the hair.. like a crochet wig, then sew THAT onto your braids* So much easier to take off and you wont cut your hair trying to get tiny crochet strands out of the front.
Kalifornia Soul Do you have a video where someone us demonstrating how they do that? Trying to envision it. Wouldn't there be a band in the front and you couldn't part it?
you can't see the band, its basically making a crochet wig with a part.. the same way you'd do it on your head but on the net. For the part you just make it in the cap. Mark a part, crochet the hair on either side and then cut it, then you can make a part in your own hair and sew either side of the wig.. i'm not sure i'm explaining it well, but its a method i prefer.
There are lots of videos showing the crochet wig technique, then i just sew it to my head at a few anchor points
czcams.com/video/Em2hJw_MuCU/video.html
I’ve never cut my own hair doing a takedown of my crochet braids. I cut the hair about 4-5 inches away from my scalp then patiently remove the knots with my hands. It’s worth it to me to remove it slowly like that. Using a cap for me won’t work because o have to get at that scalp to cleanse it. But those caps are great for making a crochet wig.
I did the same thing :-( Thanks for the tip!
My other issue with this is that SCALP OIL WILL BREAKDOWN THE ELASTIC OVER TIME, so i'm afraid of 'strands' falling out without my knowledge.
This may likely require weekly washing (usual washing regimen) to prevent oil buildup, but oiling scalp as usual will be a problem.
The strands are in knots they cant come a loose unless you take them apart
I hear this hair sheds A LOT. Could you include an update vid. so we can see how well the hair does over time?? ✌🏽❤️
I already took the hair out unfortunately, it did shed, but i didnt think it was a crazy amount of shedding
Human hair also burns differently- you could also do a strand burn test
True. I'm already convinced it's human hair though!
Your only mistake is going under the braid instead of through the braid.. gives a much smoother and polished finished
Belinda McDaniel What do you mean by through the braid?
Belinda McDaniel Is there a video where that is demonstrated?
Chin926 instead of putting the crochet needle under the braid..on the scalp, put the needle through the top of the braid. No lumps and brings the hair closer together
This would be a great alternative for goddess braids since they always tangle.
Great video and thanks for sharing! I see a lot of comments on the price, but just like any other style, it's your choice. I think it's worth it, especially when you can straighten AND curl it! 😉
I wonder if you can reuse it!🤔
Thanks!❤️ Yes, you can reuse it!!
Would you do a video on taking out your weave? I just took. Mine out myself. Of course more to be desired than my day today lol uggg I had it in. 11.5 months...and I had a huge matt ..but oh well cost less.
I have a video on that already!
LOVE IT! but it's too expensive I'm good might as well just do a sew in or a wig
Do you think this hair be installed and braided or twisted?
You're sooooooo!!!!! Good at this, WOW 🥺😳😳😳😳 I can watch you all day, and you're very pleasant to watch. Thank you for all your teachings baby girl. God bless you
Great job showing the hair can get curled , pressed out and still go back to the original shape 😄 thanks for the demo of the invisible part with elastic bands, good to know before making the $$$ investment into human hair. How many packs should I get? Is it less or more than I . normally get with senthetic type.
Thank you!I woulds say the same!
Excellent video, I just started doing crochet braids for myself, could you please let me know what type of Saga hair you used for this video? Thank you.
I was typically to do the bodywave crochet hair last night to my friend head but the hair was to soft and it did not have the rubber on it so I took the hair out because I dnt like like how it looked
This girl is a magician to be able to do all alone a most complicated and tiresome job......👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you for the tutorial; very informative and you did a great job on your style. It looks great. What texture hair did you use? I noticed the brand was Saga by Milky Way but I don't see the human hair pre-loop or elastic crochet braids in your Sam's Beauty inventory above. Please tell me the texture you used in your video. Thank you again!
Looks very nice on you 👌🏽....if possible could you a 2 week review on it..
you saved my life i go to the bahamas on friday and need too put something in today!!!
Im so glad you did a review on this, saga/ shake n go is pretty good hair usually.. it's not hair that's going to last for thousands of years at a time but it does the job, 35 a pack is good.
Glad you liked the video
Love your full on test with heat curl n revert bac👍🏽😁
Thank you!
That hair is my favorite!!
Can you use this to attach directly to the hair the same way you would doing Brasilian knot method?
I prefer Brasilian knot method because the finish is better and access to scalp is key for me. And I usually use bundles and not weave
Also, do you cut out the elastic when removing?
Seun... You are soooooooo loved!!!
Aww! Thank you so much😭❤️❤️
Do you think this style can be done on a caucasion person ? Do you think it will show ? Thanks xxx
I'm not sure how it would turn out
Can you dye it?
Can you show when you uninstall the hair? How many packs did you use?
Does it shed?? That's my question. A BIG pet peeve for me!!
I was waiting for this, I don’t like sew in bcz I can’t keep it longer than a week. it makes me itch so bad, want to wash my hair like I never washed it before. I think this is a better solution that I can do it myself frequently & I can take it off & wash my itchy scalp as I wish.
I feel you!
Would've made a crochet lace part wig
I wanna try this on myself! Looks good!

@@laurenlocd3180 Duh?💡Oh, okay! Yes, that makes it perfectly okay! 😒😒😒 I see why Asian markets continue to rob Blk communities 🙄🙄🙄
@@graciousgrace7509 No one reuses crochet hair!Let me restate, I don’t reuse crochet hair! That’s the point of it being a crochet-quick and cheap! But do you!

@seun how many packs did you use?
Looks good.Might give it a try
You should! Thanks!
Very pretty. How many packs did you use? And could you do updates on it.
Thanks! 5
ladynefertitibk hey just found your channel hopefully you can subscribe back
I would like to try this hair
Wow great job you did
Can you use this hair for individual micro braids
Hello, your video is awesome!! Do you know of any online retailers that sell this type of hair?
I'd do weave over my whole head a nd do the invisible part crochet for a more natural look without leave out...good video 🙌
Thanks! Yes, that's a great combo!
michalovesanime i just did this with the model model wet and wavy bulk hair for my vacay.. i think this would have been waaaaay better because i am dealing with slippage
Is there any after care routine for the curly hair? I’m gonna try half of my head with curls just similar to these and I wanna make sure I don’t miss any steps to keep them fresh for as long as possible
I didnt keep mine in for too long, but since it is human hair it should be the same process for human hair wigs or weave!
Beautiful, I'm so happy to see human hair crochets!! Finally! How many packs did you use?
Thanks! Me too! 5(:
5?
At 34 each?
Cheetah Rose Yup the shit is way too expensive for my liking!
I was excited until that price tag was revealed that's a negative...defeats one of the reasons so many people get crotchet... It's supposed to be affordable 😒
Thanks so much! You have such a sweet smile. God bless you.
You are so kind
Excellent video u covered all the bases I needed. Thank You!
Very nice and good technique.
How many bags of the human hair crochets it takes for a head
Great video! Was the curl a little looser when the hair dried?
No, it was just less crimpy
@Seun Okimi - how many packs did you use for your head?
How many packs did you use ?
what inch is this ? & in the video is that the whole 5 bags or you installed the rest afterwards?
I love your attitude!! You are so sweet
Lovely as usual..could you reuse the hair though
Yes!
The idea is great. i wish i could be the model for one of these places so someone would do m hair for FREE! and I just walk around as a human billboard for them lol. Any takers? But this is like many said too expensive for my taste. Just make my crochet look natural and last and I'm down!
How many packs did you use in this video?
@seun. Great vid. Comprehensive and timed perfectly. Yeah!!!!!!!
Thank you!!!
do u think its everywhere juss in us can u do prom crothet hairstyles please im lookin for some
You can buy it online and see if they ship globally!
Did you get all of the hair in one length? Or did you get different ones for layers
They were all the same length I believe!
Que máximo amei e como fãs esta mecha este cabelo e humano? Parabéns amei o vídeo minha linda sucesso
I want to see you braid ur hair in box braids and a hair style side way braids trying to learn how to do my hair and figure out how
Ok, I might do that if the future!
Please what length is this i have looked through the entire comments
how many packs did you use?
5
How many packs did she use
I'm looking for that human hair look, good on my skin, but the price is to much for me, don't get me wrong it's beautiful, on you, but i think i better stick with a wig. Thanks for the video.
So it can be washed & reused
WestWard Pomona Gyrl Yes!!! And the curls bounce back.
I don’t want elastic rubbing on my natural hair, im afraid of breakage.
What song is that in the outro?

CT R tekno yawa
Good job girl
Does it dye? I want to use it to make permanent locks and others charge way too much for the same look
I haven’t tried it, but I believe it should
I would be worried about having this elastic on my roots. Elastic dries my hair out and I am in a dry climate. Nice results though.
How many bags did you use ?
Can you color the hair?
Yes!
Seun! I tried this half-way with synthetic but I just couldn't get the part line to blend well with part.. Wish you are in NY, my parting needs help! Are you based in Lagos?
Aw, hope you were able to find a solution! No, I'm in Texas at the moment
@@SeunOkimi Going to try again sometime soon... oh my! Couple of states away, would be awesome to make your acquaintance in person 💥🤗, will definitely be messaging you if i find myself in your area and please if you come to NY, say s(th). 😍
It's funny how she squinting her eyes and grinding her teeth like she actually combing her hair lolol cute
Is it bleachable ???
Yassss this was much needed
Glad to help!

How many packs did your use for your entire head?

Why do you go under your braids instead of the top?
That's what works best for me!
