  • Hey guys! In this video I detail how I get perfect box braids every time. My clients know this style as "3 row box braids". I try to focus more on the parting than I do the actual technique of attatching the hair. If you'd like a video on that let me know!
    Check out my new video below!

    Hi! My name is Alexa and I make youtube videos to share my knowledge of hair I've acquired over the past few years. I am currently in cosmetology school and will be getting my licence in may (fingers crossed)! I also am an alumna of Spelman College and braid many of my spelmans sisters hair. I hope you can learn a little from my channel :)

    Looks good! But how many rows did you have in the back of the head?

      Sakita Brown there are two in the back. If that section is sort of big/long you can fit 3 back there and have them still be the same size as the rest. It just takes a few extra minutes to squeeze an extra row

    Do you have a video that shows you put in the extensions at a better angle ?
