I’m a dude. Quarantine day 18. Enjoyed the video. And I learned something about parting my hair
I’ve literally told my husband so many times that I’m going to get yelled at in BMT for my hair because I could never get it flat or tame down the fly always. I watched the video last night while he was on base, he came home and the first thing I said was “omg! So you know that girl in the Air Force that makes RUclips videos that I always tell you about?! She just answered my prayers! I have to use a boar’s hair bristle brush!!!” And he was super excited because all he has to do for his hair it get it buzzed, so he had no clue how he was going to help me with that aspect 🤣
Look up how make flaxseed gel too
Me: Only bobby pins?! Won't it most likely fall out? *Tries it as a girl who's hair hurts like hell in any bun method* Finally found a method to do a bun comfortably. 😄
Great video! I’m so tired of watching sock and donut buns tutorials. I still haven’t been able to use a donut or one of those slap bracelets wrapping bun tools successfully. And they never looked any better and actually hurt my head more than just regular elastics. Your video had me trying just pins and I was really surprised by how much less my head hurt. I bought “spin pins” recently and found them to be even use, keep the hold better and uses less pins so that’s my new go-to method.
Your biceps 😍
I've never thought to use a magnetic sewing pin holder for Bobby pins. Blew my freaking mind.
omg! i leave for basic in 10 months and i have naturally curly hair and 'ive tried like every method and this is the only way that works for my hair! thank you! your vids are SOOOOO helpful!!!
I have 3c hair type and I look like a tasered lion king in the mornings
you are beautiful! I'm in the Navy and it's really nice to see positive comments about a fellow sister-in-arms
Thank you for ur service 💕✊🏽🇺🇸
I thought I was gross for not washing my hair everyday lol I love you so much more for that fun fact about yourself !😂
Yeah I'm not the only one! I only wash it every 7 days
Everyday washing BAD. You strip your hair of essential oils. At the height of my days as a live performing metal circuit club guitarist, I only water-washed and used glops of conditioner to detangle. We actually played near several USAF installations and the scene in "This is Spın̈al Tap" is real. Radio transmissions between various personnel bled through wireless guitar-to-amplifier systems.
Thank you! I'm in the RAF cadets in England and my hair has always been too messy or too many flyaways but your video has helped me so much!
I’ve been trying to think about who you look like and I realized like you look like Catherine from the ace family ! but thank you for all this 💙
how dare you disrespect Elora like that....she looks NOTHING like that fake bich from the ace family.
Jordanxz um you’re the one being disrespectful.
BrieBrie girl... fuck the ace family lmaooo, fake ass people. 💅🏽💅🏽💅🏽💅🏽💅🏽💅🏽💅🏽
Thanks for the great video Elora. All your videos are very informative and helpful about the Airforce. I have friend joining soon and your vids are a great resource. Thank you for service.
I'm so glad to hear that! Thank you for the support, I wish your friend the best of luck.
@@EloraJean hello from palm springs California 💫🌴🌻 could you please tell me the name of the brush and the oil for your hair!🙏
My hair is super thick! In my case, if I ever joined, the sock bun would likely work best for me.
Stay safe Elora and thank you for your service to America 🇺🇸. Great to know there are such amazing young ladies in service.
When I had hair and had to do this, I loved those spiral pin things to keep it extra secure through the middle. Or you could go all GI Jane like I did and chop it all off
I use both hair ties and Bobby pins because I have thick long hair and I never mind slight pull either because I know it’s tight and won’t fall out
❤ from a young Air Force brat!
Great tutorial!
Your videos are helping me so much.Im looking to join soon.
Sneaky I’m so happy to hear that! You’re gonna do great 😊
Spot on! I was watching on awe, lol. I'm definitely going to be growing my layers out for uniformity. Thank you for sharing your tips!!
Thank you for your service
Oh my god how do people get their buns looking so good? Mine just sticks out and it's like "why are you like this?"
Exactly!
This is so different from the marines, but you're so pretty💕thank you for your service
Much needed tutorial. Can you do makeup next please???? I CANT WAIT FOR THAT! SUPER EPIC SUPER
Are you provided with hair items or do you bring them?
How do you keep you bun stable with bobby pins? I can't even keep it tight with a hair tie
Wish I had my long hair back. Bobby pins and hair ties barely hold for my hair cause it's super thick
I love your videos they are so helpful! Have you ever tried using cork screw bobby pins? (I think that’s what they are called) I have really long and thick hair as well and those are so amazing! I only have to use a couple and they hold your hair superrrr well!
Jade Cross Duuuude I’ve seen those before but never tried them! I’ll definitely try them out, thanks 😊
Your hair color is gorgeous, do you dye it or is it naturally like that?
I dye it! Thank you :)
I wore a silk liner inside my cover in military school. Much better for your scalp than oil. But anyway, you are beautiful.
How much time do they give you to do your hair in basic
OMG thank you for this! I'm aiming to join AF Reserves closer to the end of 2021 and my hair is longer as well and I've been trying to figure out how to do this. My mom lives with my husband and me and she's retired Army and she chopped hers when she served. LOL So I figure if I can start trying to get my hair in check and trained. Plus I work in a restaurant so this is appropriate, also!
Um like this would for sure be the one i would follow because most others put all that gel noooo anyway if u want a good healthy gel that stimulates hair growth and cheap but holds really well look up how to make flaxseed gel from seeds also what i do instead once my hair starts to get stiff and b4 gets all way dry i brush it and hair becomes frizz free and soft witch is crazy for me coz i have really curly hair and my curl pattern became beautiful its a miracle by way ur way too pretty 😍
This is how I do my buns but the middle part always flops down and my bun will stick straight out after a few hours
Is that work while doing PT? I have hair almost length of your hair?
I am sitting here and I was like I need to learn how to do my hair for the military in 2 years. The sad thing is I don’t even know how to put my hair in a ponytail! I know how to braid my hair though.
If I wash my hair everyday it won't lay flat. When I go to bmt I'll probably wash my hair 1 or 2 times because my hair can not.
what did you do with your hair every day for pt? can you braid it instead of put it in a bun?
Some people told me after training in the Air Force (2 or 4 months), people who are not citizens will get a citizenship and their parents also will get it. Is it true? Thank you
I've heard of people gaining their citizenship through joining the Air Force, but I haven't heard their parents also got citizenship. That's something I would absolutely talk to a recruiter about and clarify with your own research.
What happens if your bun falls down during pt ?
You are allowed to wear your hair in a ponytail or braid(s) for PT, so you shouldn't have that problem :)
Elora Jean Does that also go for PT during BMT? Like wearing it in a pony tail??
VLEO 1900 in BMT you wear ponytails for PT. You can do bun, but most just do pony since you’re rushing out the door
Meg Dougherty thx for the info!
So when is what hairstyle appropriate? I'm going general enlistment after I graduate next year and I thought you had to have it in a bun 24/7 except for leisure time. Any help?
While in BMT does your hair fall if you don't use hair ties? I know you run and workout a lot so I was just worried about that part. I don't wanna get yelled at for my hair falling lol
Can you wear makeup while in uniform?
Do you have to have it parted on the side? My part is in the middle, but my buns don't normally have a part at all
you are so pretty & your hair is beautiful
Your pretty. Thanks for your service!
I would like you to do my hair every Wednesday. I have JROTC and Wednesdays are dress out days
Yeah so here’s the thing😂 my hair doesn’t do that front part thing
What would happen if your hair fell out of the bun
When I was in the AF it was AFR 35-10 and we knew all the loopholes. Our class As were much better than the same uniform of today. Why not adopt the new Army's Pinks and Greens in an AF blue shade.
Thanks for the tutorial boss :D
But in basic training how can you slick it back if you’re not allowed products or will they allow product?
You are allowed to have hair gel and other hair products.
Thanks for all your great videos! By chance do you know if it is mandatory to have a part in your hair during basic training?
It is not mandatory :)
Hey Elora, im in DEP for the airforce
& i have a natural fro w shaved sides. Ive been growing it out bc i supposed that can b considered "faddish" but 1. my hair isnt long enough for a ponytail or a bun & 2. The bulk exceeds 3inches.
Sooo, i was thinking of shaving the back to match the sides (but leaving @ least the req. 1/4in) thus leaving the top & backish for the most part. Ik u just got in but is that acceptable? Bc rn im @ a lose, lose ( bulk & no bun) My recruiter isnt shit so ive been diving thru info on my own. Sorry for the rambling thanks in advance!
Elora, can you please help me? If I have joined, could I still keep my hairstyle? It's a shaggy haircut. I know I would have to keep my bangs cut
I have curly hair and it’s thick and highlighted😭 I leave for basic in the middle of the year and I’m so nervous
I have really really thick hair so i can't really twist it into a bun, and the sock method doesn't work for me, again because I have very thick hair. Do you have any suggestions for that?
I have a really dumb question...can you take a small hair dryer to BMT? I have very curly hair that take last a long time to air dry and is difficult to smooth down in to a bun. If I can at least halfway straighten it, it will cooperate better. Any suggestions for curly hair in BMT will help!
Soooo you're sorta out of luck, girl! You can't use any hair products like dryers, flat irons, etc. You wouldn't even have time! You sorta just have to work with what ya got :)
I have my first day of cadets tomorrow......
Help me I’m scared 😬😑😭😢😞
I going to join the Air Force I’m a bit nervous but that’s not for a while.
Same, im thinking about joining next year and im so nervous 😅 :)
your videos are so, so helpful! I’m looking to enlist and also become a photojournalist and I’m so happy I found your channel! Thank you!
Thank you so much! I wish you luck!
I was reading somewhere that the navy or the marines was now allowing females to wear ponytails, do you think that the air force will do this too? Because I cannot do a nice bun to save my life and i am really worried about it
Oooh man I have no idea, I personally don't see that happening any time soon because it just sorta looks unprofessional, but who knows.
"can you see that? YAS" me too sis, me too lol
How much time do they allow you to do your hair?
in my navy class we have to use donuts for our bun
@@2IzzyReelz they did give me a choice to fo without or with, but my hair is hard to do with out the donut and im in a class, not in actually navy:)
I currently have a side cut, like the right side of my head is shaved to about 1/2 inch length and since my hair is dark it’s not very noticeable and it can be easily covered by the rest of my hair. Will I be able to keep my hair like this or will they make me grow it out before I can join?
Soooo if it can be covered it's probably not a huge deal, if anything they would make you even it out so it's all one length.
Great job! Thank you for your service
are those bobbie pins Military Grade ??
My bf left for the air force since October 30. When will I get a letter from him? *cries* I've written him four letters so far through the sandboxx app. Do you know how the letter writing works in the air force?
Hey there, so you'll definitely have to write him physical letters because he won't be able to use his phone for things like that. He can write you letters if he has time but idk how good guys are about writing lol.
Thank you Elora!
I used to use a hairnet bobbypinned just over the bun to keep it together. Is this allowed in the airforce?
Oh yeah! You can still do that as long as the net is the same color as your hair.
Elora Jean awesome! Thank you so mucch
What if your hair is in layers and all those little hairs sticking out? Should i use like a type of gel to keep it in place or just use a ton of bobby-pins? Thank you!😁
Uhh I feel like that's kindof up to you, you know what works best with your hair and what you prefer!
Elora Jean thank you again!😁
Can you use both hair ties and Bobby pins?
I need a tutorial of that eye makeup 🙏
for the bun, does the hair HAVE to be parted to the side or can it be brushed straight back?
I'm also curious
I think it can be brushed back too
has anyone's hair ever fell out during pt? do they get in trouble?? I'm scared mine will fall out
While you are PTing your hair is allowed to be "free-flowing" which includes ponytail and braid(s).
Hi, I was just wondering what piercings you cannot have when in the air Force? I have an industrial and when I talked to a recruiter they didn't say anything about it but I'm still not too sure? Thank you
Hey, you're allowed to have piercings you just can't have the jewelry in while in uniform.
Ok thank you so much.
Any suggestions for growing out bangs at boot camp?
When would you do your hair at night or in the morning?
I typically wash my hair at night, and put it up in the morning.
Am I allowed to just cut my hair super short before BMT so I don't have to deal with it at all while there?
Yeah definitely! If you prefer to wear your hair down instead, it must be short enough. It basically has to be like...chin-length lol because it can't go below the bottom of your collar.
That's what I did! I found it so helpful because I'm horrible at doing hair. You'll still be expected to slick it back though
Other than the use of the Briogeo spray, do you think this is practical for BMT?
Nalani Indigo I would say you either need A TON of bobby pins or just a hair tie for BMT because you’re walking/running/going up&down stairs so much the bobby pins are definitely not gonna hold much. I used a combination of hair tie and bobby pins in BMT.
I’m thinking about going into the Air Force, but I have really short hair, like male haircut short, are there any regulations about girls who have that short of hair? Like does it have to be a certain length that’s longer or would I have to buzz it off? I’ve been worrying about this so an answer would be great if you have one. Thanks!
So, females are allowed to have super short hair! Just recently the AFI was updated where they could even buzz it if they want. You can find the exact details if you Google AFI 36-2903, in the grooming standards for female hair section
My ship date is July 3rd, so I'm getting prepared right now. I don't have any females at my recruiting office currently, so watching videos helps. I have a super weird question about underwear though (obviously can't ask my recruiter). Will they MAKE you wear underwear? I know, sounds like a strange question but I'm curious. Thanks for the video!
Lauren Avocado No I’m glad you ask 😂😂 I definitely went commando a few times, mostly because I didn’t want to wear dirty underwear when laundry was backed up. I will say you should probably be fine EXCEPT make sure it’s on a day where you’re not getting uniforms or getting sized for uniforms cuz you have to strip into bra&underwear for that stuff and it would be super awkward if you didn’t have any on 😂😂
Hahaha, thanks so much. It's difficult not having females to ask this stuff before I go. I was figured I'd have to strip down at some point, lol.
I ship out the same day!
What's your hai colour??
Can you please tell me what the names of the combs or brushes you used ? :)
The brands rubbed off so I'm not sure what it is! Check out Sally Beauty for brushes that look similar
And what video editor do you use?
Does your hair have to be parted a certain way
Nope!
I'm gonna practice this all day. I'm 12. Far away from 18 (Or the age youre allowed to join the military)
Most beautiful voice ever
How are you in the military you don’t look like a girl that does things like that but cool and do you have to do the nun your self or does the barber do it ??
The barbers do not cut the women's hair in BMT, or after. Females, like males, are responsible for maintaining a proper and professional appearance in uniform, however they go about it is their choice!
@@EloraJean i meant bun not nun lol sorry
This turned up in my feed so, what the hey, clicked for fun.
Yes, very lovely young woman.
Those arms though. . . . . . Gotta love a woman with muscle.
Enjoyed watching this Elora,you have pretty hair and are a beautiful young lady,I luved your makeup. Are you able to wear makeup everyday?
Women are allowed to wear cosmetics in uniform usually, I have a few videos on what sort of makeup looks are allowed if you wanna check those out :)
hey! love your videos btw, but do you have to have your hair parted a certain way?
Thank you so much! And no, your hair does not have to be parted a certain way in the Air Force. It doesn't even have to be a straight part lol, I've seen everything across the board.
Love your channel! Just subscribed 💕
Thank you!!
You didnt have time for all of that in Basic, hair spray, oils.
Some of the ladies I was in basic with , pony tail occasionally they twisted it into a bun. If your spending that much time on your hair every morning your in Permanent Part Assignment. Also your makeup is to heavy and to many rings for being on Duty. I am a USAF Vet
Thank you for your serving.
So what u mean is the other videos are not realistic??oh do a apple cider vinegar rinse for scalp
Thank you🙏🏽
Gotchu girl
U look so much like cathrine from the ACE family
I’m just here for JROTC 🤣
Come back hanbin me too lmao
Do you have to wash your hair everyday at bmt?
Nancy Lagos Not if you don’t want to! I don’t think I did every day.
You do have to shower every day though. Some girls get in trouble for trying not to shower
Thank you for your service!😿😸
How do you make your thumbnails?
Delaney Demarco I take a picture, edit it on VSCO, then use Picture Grid to put text on it lmao. All free apps! And I use Movie Maker to edit my videos cuz I can’t afford something better rn😅
