Simple Yarn Braid Hairstyles

Back again with more yarn braid hairstyles. I have at least 3 for you guys and I am currently working on doing a video on how I do the styles for them (Some people have asked). As soon as it is finished I will post it here.

Protective Style

Here is my protective style for last week. It's my usual style that I wear but it took me 2 hours to achieve. Why? Because I was doing all sorta other things as well (lmao).



Please pay no attention to my face. I had just woken up and I had not put anything on my face so please ignore any "yampe" in my eye.


Yarn Braids- Fishtail Variation

Hiya!

So here is my variation on the regular fishtail. I decided to give it a little swoop and my crochet flower.

Pay no attention to placid looking face

My side "swoosh"



Every now and then try sprucing up one of your regular styles and see what happens. You just might like it.

Yarn Braids- Fishtail

Hi
Here are pics of my fishtail yarn braid style. It is very simple because you use sections and criss cross them as you go to create this.

Yarn Braids- Braided bun

So, I was coming down to the last days of having these braids in my hair so I thought that I should try and at least post 1 more style for these braids.

I put 2 braids on either side of my head, joined them in the back with a scrunchie and tucked in as many strays as I could (obviously not enough).

Yarn Braid Style



So this consists of my normal fishtail hair style with a little swooped bang. Not much to say about this style but it's quick and versatile for either day or night.

Weekly Hairstyle- Finger coils

Well Hello all

This weeks style is finger coils with some flat twist thrown in to break it up some

Front view... Still a little wet with the gel

Flat twists on the side... Please ignore the bad parting

My coils in the back
What did I use?
I used Alikay  Naturals Aloe Berry Styling gel for the curls and the flat twists as well as a sample of Pooka's Shea and Olive curl butter that I received in my curl kit. To start my hair was sectioned off. Then I dampened my hair with water (Please do not soak the hair until it is dripping) and used Pooka as my moisturizer and finger combed it through. Please not this style did not require a comb aside from the flat twist section. I then used a dab of the gel on each coil section.

What are finger coils?

It's kind of hard to explain by typing so look at the following videos for a reference:







Hope this helps. I will check back in the show how my coils look by Wednesday. So far I do not require much is the way of coil refreshing besides I slight spray from my spray bottle since my hair is so tightly coiled.
