Check out my insta / frokyo to see photos of complete looks featuring this hairstyle.
Here I show you how to do the style everyone always wants to know about: yarn braids! This is technique for creating box braids using yarn in place of hair extensions. The only real prior knowledge you need is how to create a basic, three strand braid.
People often tell me they struggle with braiding their own hair. I always do my box braids completely by myself and have been doing so since high school, so here are some tips I've picked up along the way!

Seeing the style in pictures, I never would have guessed it was done with yarn; I always braid with synthetic hair so I assumed that’s what it was. Creative and cute style :D

@PPPixie620 2 года назад

I personally prefer the woollen braids myself, because i find synthetic hair is very heavy on my head and kinda restricting. Yarn is also way cheaper where I live (New Zealand) due to shipping costs, as well as the variety of colors that yarn offers! Loved this video!

@PPPixie620 2 года назад

I also find cutting the yarn ahead of time is quicker than cutting them while I'm braiding

Wool thread matts and bonds with our hair... Should never be used.

Forgo the comb and use a spiky pet brush, like the ones for brushing a cat. It works much better.

I actually love the tip of pre twisted out hair for sectioning!!! And I'm gonna try out wet vs dry installation.

Thank you for doing this tutorial. Im considering doing box braids in my daughter's (7) hair, as she hates brushing it everyday and im constantly struggling with knots and breakage, and am hoping the braids will help with the struggle (since the style lasts for weeks) but also will help with her hair breakage due to the knots. ❤

Thank you, I don’t remember how many I used for these braids but in general I use 5-6 strands per braid

@aquamom14 4 года назад

@1LiveInUrWalls. Месяц назад

Would this still work with different sized braida and different hair textures because im quite and have that "sleek like" hair and would love these braids, but im unsure ifnit will work of not

@terribeaulieu2982 Год назад

Also what length of hair can be used for these. Mine is about shoulder length

@lisasmith5979 9 месяцев назад

How do you keep them in. Like do they fall out?

@tiffanyrose6947 Год назад

So, I have straight soft hair. How do I stop it from sticking out all over the place at the end of the hair?

@terribeaulieu2982 Год назад

How long these last

@laurenarnold813 2 года назад

I've wanted to have colorful hair for awhile, but I'm not allowed to dye it, I might use the yarn technique for an accent braid or something, can someone tell me if that's wrong?

@corvidcreationsshop Год назад

It's not wrong; it's your hair, do what you want with it

@carwynsmum Год назад

The repurposing at the end was the highlight 😅😅

@huntingtonparkway 3 года назад

@rojannedelacruz1707 4 года назад

Is it okay for the asians like us to try those box braids/african braids? P.s. i really wanna try those🥺🥺 its cute tho🥰

@hanifahbm9749 3 года назад

No it’s not okay xx

@maupow3739 3 года назад

Yes its okay, so long as you are not being disrespectful. You can look into the history of it, and find out how people would braid their hair. For example, in certain African countries in the past, it was used for identifying different people by their age or status within a community. Just be respectful and research more about this hairstyle and how it would be with your hair type.

@Layla___channel24 2 года назад

Go ahead! Braiding is really awesome and it's good when others want to do it.

@prettypinkprince 2 года назад

No it's not okay

@kyramonday9141 Год назад

I don’t mean to be rude at all asking this so anyone can answer my question honestly! Can anyone wear this hairstyle or is there a cultural significance linked to black people? Similar to how dreads are commonly associated with the black community and it is a huge debate on if white people can wear dreads!

@pippaari7663 15 дней назад

I love box braids, and I've found that the general option is truly split. Some of the African heritage feel that it's okay as long as you realize your privilege, as professional women are often stigmatized for wearing braids in the working environment. CC Mink talks a lot about how braids and bonnets are about hair care, not race, which I love. But I do agree that, as a white woman, I do need to realize the struggles my colored sisters have when they wear the same hair styles and are stigmatized for it.
