Right it's the best method ever. And you know it's good too to put in your hair cucumber water from Garnier. It's a leave-in conditioner treatment. That's what I use and just continue doing the same routine. My hair grew it's at 10 in right now I want to get to 12 and I'm good👍🏽
YES!!!!! I wore block braids for 6 months straight in 2023. Took down 1 random braid once a month to monitor hair/scalp health. I washed every week. Deep conditioned. I will say take down process took a month. I went slow and took my time...6 months of matted hair. I gained 5.5 inches!! Doing it again in June.
@@nondumisogasser7155 yep. I put my hair in medium-small twists. I coat the ends with my favorite edge control. That keeps my ends in tact. I wash them, concentrating on my scalp, and condition them, concentrating on my hair. I make a braid spray of aloe vera juice, Infusium 23, and vegetable glycerin to keep them moisturized. I redo a section of them every couple of weeks. And I take them down one twist at a time, clean up the parts, and retwist them. I think maintaining the original parts is important because it dramatically reduces breakage. Hope this helps.
Did this with individual two strand twists after having done the plaits and it achieved the same results, less time during the take down. Both methods work great though. 🎉❤❤❤
Corn row and plats, I just feel like the plats are easier to care for them the corn rows, I feel like the scalp gets cleaner and the moisture gets into the shafts better !
I started mine a year ago & I definitely seen growth too. But I need to create the shirt too 😭 & the ones saying "why do you wash your braids" the REAL question is WHY DON'T YOU?! Looking good queen 😩🥰
THANKS GUH!!!!!!! .... also, when I was first asked why I wash my braids, I was confusedddddddddddd but I realize that many of use were taught not to do it. Or never thought to do it cause "dirty hair grows" lol the things we've been feed growing up is crazy, but I'm glad we're learning
I’ve had large plats in my hair for 8 years now and it’s at waist length! They truly work and I’ve always washed my braids! It just takes longer bcse you have to ensure you get the shampoo through the braids to remove dirt and oil..
@@SharatiaBanks thank you! And i meant to compliment you on your dedication also! My plats are big though (bcse I’m lazy 😂😂😂) it went from 12 to now 8. You got this, just keep up with your dedication and regimen! ❤️❤️
Yes!!! I’m with you girl! 👏👏 Plaits are doing wonders for my hair and I don’t care what anybody thinks about them. I’m like holla back when my hair is down my back! 😅 You’re doing great Sis! 🌸💕
Yes!! I keep telling people plats and mini twist are great for length retention, and easy to moisturize. I buzzed my hair 1 year ago after having a platinum fade for awhile. My hair has grown soooooo much once it got to a length where I could twist it.
Just finished redoing mine last night and they’re bout the same size as yours! I’m excited. I wanted better parts so I took the whole thing down and blew it out to have neater parts since you can see my scalp easier and omg… I got so much new grown in just those three weeks of having my previous set in! I’m like a half inch away from waist length in the back and past my armpit in the front!!! I’ve have been at a plateau for a year now. IM SOO HAPPYYYY❤❤❤❤
Thank you love!!! It’s exciting! Thank you for sharing your routine to help me. Honestly would’ve never tried mini braids before wayching your videos 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾💕
I have fine 2c hair and I agree that braids really are the best protective style, i now put my hair in two braids after wash days and it has significantly reduced the split ends and damage I had, it's also so much easier to detangle
Sooo here i am again! Fist pumping for you washing your braids!!! I maintained my length because of this and it makes it great to get to your scalp! I did the same years ago when i had extensions! I’m from the other video you posted previously and i see the growth!!! ❤❤❤❤
Using the Revair on cool after deep conditioning with the Shea moisture Amla masque?? GAME CHANGER for my hair, so glad I found your page, everything you’ve suggested has been so helpful!!
I remember 20 something years ago keeping my double strand twisted locks small and pulled back under my military fatigue hat best growth ever this is why I just started box braids again
I love love your routine🥰. I too see super growth when my hair is in single braids. Going to start deep conditioning my hair every week too to help thicken my hair, due to neglect during postpartum with twins, sucked the thickness out of my strands 😩but getting there. Thanks for your video’s , they are so helpful 🤗
That's cute. I've thought of doing that a little bit. I'm 8 days shy of my 2 year hair growth journey. Currently rocking these 2 braids for what will be 8 weeks when I take them out on my anniversary. When I get to 3 years and have some decent male hangtime ima try your style for a year and see what it gives.
Yes happy dance!!! How affirming!! Currently doing this with twists! I even twist the ends up the twist to keep them off my shoulders because my hair is so long 😅 Its been great for moisture and length retention ✨
I do my daughter hair like this and her hair is almost to tail length.. I do crochet braids to switch up her style plus she’s tender headed to those styles give her the best growth and length retention ♥️ you have beautiful hair ❤
Beautiful! I love it for you 😍. I have triiiied but my hair is like 🚫 when I try and wash my hair in braids. "Matte City Chick" 😂 it'll get soo matted even upon thorough detangling and a recent rebraid. However I gotta figure something out bc your results, and many others following this protocol are too good, lovely 😍
@@SharatiaBanks heyy yes loose twists are less prone to matting for me when I wash in them. I can be on the safe side when I cleanse w/ something like a cleansing cowash.
Omg same. My hair doesn’t not like being washed in braids like this. I’ve come to that realization when it took me hours to remove the plaits and how tangled my hair got (which always has happened). 😅 Gotta find another style
I've been wanting to do this! Just have to wait until my hair is actually long enough to braid (it's a twa) but it seems like the ideal hairstyle for health, growth and efficient care! I'mma take this as a sign from the universe
Yuppp!!! Well done sis! The way our mama’s did our hair was top tier!! Just the difference is that I know how to moisturize it well now, combine that witht the plaits and BANGGG
Beautiful, healthy hair & answered all of my questions. I have my hair in boho braids now. I grew my hair good without braids, but with braids, it helps massively w retention and growth✨
I go back and forth with two steand twists and crochet braids. While i dont wash them as often. I donuse a refresher spray. I'm going to incorporate a cleansing oil next but my hair has grown as well.
Your hair won’t loc even if you left them in for the year. It takes braids a VERY long time to loc, the longest time actually so if anyone reading this was thinking about starting the journey but was on the fence, starting with braids might be best for you cos if you change your mind you can take them out more easily.
Oh wow! I was telling my hubby yesterday that when I’m ready to loc I was gonna start them off as plaits 🤣 that’s amazing.. although I wonder about the roots then . Surely that’ll loc
@@jinx526 Yes my hair ! 2 weeks with a protective style and I have matted hair, big knots everywhere. And if I wet my hair with braids in, boom, instantly.
I have locs but i’m about to start doing this with my 2 year old daughter’s hair. I’ve been considering it for a while but haven’t yet because I wana try all the cute styles on her lol. Her hair is so long and thick but she hates getting it washed and styled. This would make wash day and my entire life so much easier🤣
The problem I have with washing braids is that they loc up on me, so I have to just do 2 strand twists and wash 1x a month. It’s been working for me, but I wish I could wash my hair more (lack of time, and a need to reduce manipulation)
Thank you for this video, right now I have an Afro that is slightly bigger than a TWA, should I start this process now or let it grow out by itself more first?
It would def be easier now since they would be shorter which means It’s faster to install and takedown. You can always try it and see if you need to wait a little bit longer
I have been doing mink twists for about two months now, and it encouraged all my siblings and my mom to get them too! But i gotta stop being lazy and wash them weekly, its judt it frizzes up everytime, and its a long process of retwisting.
I have been doing braids and redoing them every two weeks before now. I just started shampooing, conditioning and moisturizing weekly💃( your tips helped). I want to retain all my new growth just like you😅. My back hair is currently at my mid back length. My front hair is the shortest😂.Hopefully I get to waist length by December😌.
Off topic but now that your hair is getting longer do you feel like you’re getting length dysmorphia? My current length I know neck length me would have dreamed to have but it never feels long enough! 😫
That’s an interesting thought. I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s dysmorphia. While I’m enjoying my current length (even though she’s in plaits all the time lol) I do have a goal. Once I reach that goal I’ll either cut it or stay there. Any longer in my opinion is nasty 🤣🤣 respectfully lol it’s just too much hair (for me)
BEAUTIFUL ❤️ 😍 BEAUTIFUL ❤️ 😍 BEAUTIFUL ❤️ 😍 🤩 I love it I agree you were it well and take care of it PERIOD . #LONG HAIR #HEALTHLY HAIR ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ ALL DAY EVER DAY
Same, mine frizzez by day 4 and moisturizing which I love makes it worse. It will shrink and frizz. If I wash in the braids I will have to end up taking it out it will just look horrendous
I do bigger braids and only keep them in 1 week at a time. Take out to wash and rebraid. If I wash my hair in the braids it looks terrible. If I wash my hair in twists it gets matted.
I mean you should wash your braids. Others may not be able to. I have to remove mine bc if I wash my hair in braids or twist even just focusing on the scalp and being careful not to scrub too much I get horrible tangles. Remember yall what works for one may not work for all. But def try it out and see if it works for your hair
Started doing these last year my hair grew tremendously 😊 glad am not the only one🎉
Yessssssss what’s your next goal?
Dd u wash Yr hair weekly with them braids on? And how long dd it take for you to rebraid dem??
@@S7766 yup! wash them every week. 10 days, the latest. ruclips.net/user/shorts2P6k-KytGqE

Do you make the box braids with extensions or just your hair
How did u deal with frizz?
Thank you for sharing, I'm going to start this!💖
yayyyyyy
I keep seeing natural hair content pop up on my feed!! God is definitely telling me it’s time to take care of my natural hair!! 🎉😢

Glad I wasn't the only one He was talking too! 😊
😢l feel the same way
I do the same thing, only with twists. The length retention is real.
REAL
What I I braid them myself n they r kinda loose will my hair still grow..?? Like if I deep condish it...n oil it??
Everyone hair is different so it’s hard to say frfr but if your hair is kinky it shouldn’t unravel

Hope you like it!
i was wondering what i should do for my hair i am getting frustrated and i am about to do the braids!!
I’m about to start these. The mini twists were ADORABLE! But after my second month the matting at the root after wash day was intense.
I’ve seen someone plait/braid the roots first then twist it to prevent matting. But yes, these plaits are the truth for me 🙌🏾🙌🏾
I absolutely hate taking out box braids but that was before I started conditioning, so I might try it out and see since 2 strands don't last as long
Same! 2 strands lasts me about a week. I can stretch it to 2 weeks. Lemme know how it works for you!!
Gooo retention! 🎉
yassssssssss
Love it.
We call these "singles" where I'm from..i love these for when you need a break from your hair❤
True. Singles are another name for them
I'm apprehensive to do this, but want to because of length retention. I guess my concern is options in how to wear it to look professional.
Do you wear box braids or cornrows at work? @verbalsilk
I have my hair in twists now and I hope I can keep them in at least 2 months😫
Thank you for this video, right now I have an Afro that is slightly bigger than a TWA, should I start this process now or let it grow out by itself more first?
It would def be easier now since they would be shorter which means It’s faster to install and takedown. You can always try it and see if you need to wait a little bit longer

Same, mine frizzez by day 4 and moisturizing which I love makes it worse. It will shrink and frizz. If I wash in the braids I will have to end up taking it out it will just look horrendous
I do bigger braids and only keep them in 1 week at a time. Take out to wash and rebraid. If I wash my hair in the braids it looks terrible. If I wash my hair in twists it gets matted.
❤❤❤❤ please what hair products are you using
What products I use in general?
@@SharatiaBanks yes please

And also the names of the ones you are using
Mine stays in plaits. I take them down and redo every 2 weeks.
What size are your plaits?
i did this for 6 months and got to MBL.... my issue is i had a lot of breakage taking them down. can you share how to take down?
@@cherainee5160 I sure can!!!! I have a short on the takedown process and I take about it in one of my other week in my life videos
@@SharatiaBanks thanks !☺️
I want my hair long enough to do this
My hair be knotted up and be trying to dred if I don’t comb it every 2 days 🙄 I struggle with my ends so I just do two braids and put gel on my ends
@@Msleelee9487 it could be the gel tbh have you tried cream instead?
Did this with my daughter hair because she is tender headed and it works
@@jamilaunicorn9965 same!!!! I’m tender headed to the max
Please how are you taking care of your hair to grow longer?
@@priscycutemaxwell7638 hey! Thanks for your question. You may wanna check out my week in my hair series/playlist. I show my full routine
I want to try this but I have fine hair, it will look like 4 braids lol
@@TayTubian I have fine hair too! Them parts are big but my plaits are skinny. Have you seen when I first did them? They were thin thin
@@SharatiaBanks I'm going to go back and check them out
Good job! ❤
Thanks!!!
Does it work for only natural hair?
New subbie! Love it! ♥️♥️♥️😊
🤗🤗 thanks!!
I mean you should wash your braids. Others may not be able to. I have to remove mine bc if I wash my hair in braids or twist even just focusing on the scalp and being careful not to scrub too much I get horrible tangles.
Remember yall what works for one may not work for all.
But def try it out and see if it works for your hair
