So I tried this exact crochet braid using your tutorial and it turned out so pretty, full yet not too heavy. However, I found that towards the middle of week 2, the hair was pretty matted. I had to cut/trim the hair practically every day to keep it looking sane and even then, I found I could only wear it one style to remain cute. It’s a shame because I try to keep my crochet hair in for 3-4 weeks. For those reading, if you want this hair to last longer, I suggest not splitting the hair into two pieces - just keep it whole. You might need more packs but the hair will probably last two weeks longer.

@user-yn7lm9on6e 2 жыл бұрын

So true!! I have a love hate relationship with Lulutress Water Wave because it's natural looking, inexpensive but it's behaves so badly over time, especially when you split it😩

@RAJOHN-ke7mc Жыл бұрын

I agree right now I'm wearing multiple curl patterns. I have lulutress in the bac about 3 rows anD its my least favorite pattern. I split all the patterns snd the waterwave is the most tangled. Next time I'll use a different pattern along the nape and I won't split the watereave along the back of my head to prevent tangle. I like how it feels however the tangles are not the move.

Using two different wave patterns really creates an interesting look. Teasing the knots is a clever way to hide them. I like your natural brushed edges too. It’s a pretty way to give the delicate edges of your hair a break from the gels, waxes or other holding products. With or without make up, you look as pretty as Solonge Knowles🤗! I’ll be trying your technique at home. Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾
