girl, you're so gorgeous! I'm not even from ghana but I was super interested in your tips anyway lol the natural hair salon did a great job on your beautiful fro 🥹

Thank you so much for this video, it made me realise that I'm not weird for not wanting to trim my braids, cause a lot of braiders over here don't know how to tuck, so when hair peeps out, they just trim it away, I would prefer to use gel or just let it be. Thanks again for this video, it really helped with my anxiety concerning braid salons. Lots of love from nigeria❤❤🇳🇬

This video was really informative! You dropped some gems. Omg, the state of the braids after a week 😭 The fact that some of the braids were already holding on for dear life is a shame.

[@MelaninMichie]

😂😂😂 for the plot xx

[@dibeabdul-rahaman572]

You guys must not be going to good braiding shops cuz this has never been a problem for me and I have lived here my whole life. Then again, I live in the north so the braiders here might be different form those down south

[@nubuke]

Your hair is so so beautiful! My goodness!

[@moumiawudu8882]

This whole video is such a gem !! Thank you for all the recommendations and tips ❤️

[@Brwniee95]

Just got back from gh.. and truthfully I only let my cousin and auntie do my braids lol, top tier experience, my auntie went to cosmetology school and has had her own shop for years, she’s based in Kumasi 🥰

[@nhyira.xo18]

love the afro😍

[@nhyira.xo18]

I've given up on Ghanaian braiders, tbh😩

[@MelaninMichie]

thank youuu! i know good ones exist 🥹 but i think being super clear with how you want your hair treated is the way forward ❤️‍🩹

[@shererdjessa]

I loved that you found a natural hair salon, sad for the poor quality of the braids. Hopefully next year we’ll see a full successful braids video hahaha

[@MelaninMichie]

😂😂😂 thanks babe! third time lucky? 💖

[@VanessaKanbi]

Absolutely love this. The edit is A1. The info is sublime. Thank youuuuuu for this video because I’m taking my braids out as I speak and my hairline isn’t looking how it did before 😂

[@MelaninMichie]

hahah ahhh thank you Vanessa!! I’m determined to find my staple braider for the two of us 🤭

[@maame176]

[@christinea.a.a]

My complaints about my braiding experience in ghana was just that it took WAY too long for it to get to my turn even thi there were like 15 girls at the place🙃. But they got my hair looking real cute tho can't complain about that

[@e_u_n_i_c_e]

Hi do you have your own place in Ghana or do you airbnb/hotel? I'm thinking of going by myself for the first time and I want to visit family but not be around them 24/7 😂😂 lmao. Do you have any tips?
