love it. Just started doing my hair like this. I don't like wet twist outs. My hair is tightly coiled. Love the blow out better. More volume. Great job!
I love how the music got more intense when you took the first braid out LOL. It fits perfectly :) The results are beautiful!! My hair is almost this long, I cant wait to try it out :D
Thank you so very much for having such informative videos. I just BC'd on Feb 23 2011 and am so excited about my journey. I never knew I had curly hair ... who knew!! I continue to see other people on the same journey and when they ask me how did I prepare I always tell them to check out your page. So I can't wait until my hair is where you are. Keep up the good work chica you rock!!!
Lovely!!! Sometimes people put rollers at the end and it looks a little funky when they're crinkled and then curly so the twisting was a good tip. I'm doing the "big chop" this saturday and your journey has been such an inspiration! Two years from now I hope to have big, bangin', natural hair too! :)
i enjoy watching your videos and you are an inspiration to me because I know what can be done with natural hair. I am six months into my transition and I am actually going to do the big chop in a couple of weeks. I just want to say thank you for taking the time to show styles and products you use in making your hair beautiful.
oh my goodness! usually when i watch hair tutorials i'm like "lame. i've seen this before." but you had me sucked in the whole time! with my somewhat straight black asian hair i can't do a thing with it so watching what you could do with yours i was floored! it looks beautiful and you're so cute! will be subscribing!
I really appreciate the tip about keeping your blow dryer on the low setting! I always love the way your blow outs come out nice fluffy and mines typically don't come out as well because I usually use a high heat! So, I tried the low setting and my hair came out really nice!! Thank You!!!
I have used the Tangle Teezer before. I really like it. I like the results. I suppose the tight braids really helped. You have really nice hair Mae! Thank you for the tutorial.
Love it! Love it! love it!. I'm trying to go natural again; I did it in the 70's and 80's, and it a little hard to go back, but I will eventually. Thank you for sharing your beautiful hair styles!!
I watch all your hair videos with a certain amount of trepidation because I never know how much MORE hair would be unveiled....lol and EVERY time I am wowed!!! I also admire how easily you approach and tackle all that hair!! I have a chronic case of hairophobia....can you tell? ...lol. Outstanding results as always :-)
I love your videos! I've been natural since January 2010 and I can't wait to get my hair your length. I figure I have at least one more year to go before I can get it like yours. Did I say that I love your hair and your videos?
This is suchhh a great style! I keep trying to find styles that fit me and that I can do every day as a student. You really do inspire me with your videos and remind me just how beautiful MY hair is
Mae, What do you use in your shin spritz? Your hair is beautiful. I did my big chop in jan and can't wait till I get more length to my TWA. All your videos tutorials and info have given me some must encouragement on my natural hair journey. Thanks again
Your ends look really good. Have you trimmed them lately. If not, how often and do you have a tutorial? Do you trim them after a blow out or in it's natural state?
i made a you tube account just to comment on your videos.not only are you an inspiration to many ladies you are also smart and with such a radiant personality.your looks are something else as well. ps me thinks you should do a tutorial for skin care hehe
love your hair, am so overwhelmed just looking at it, man you are good. I dont think i can handle so much hair. I appreciate you doing what you do...lol
i made a you tube account just to comment on your videos.not only are you an inspiration to many ladies you are also, smart and with such a radiant personality.your lookas are something else as well. ps me thinks you should do a tutorial for skin care hehe.
I'm SO glad I found this vid! You have a very similar texture to mine and I needed to have an idea of how it would look (I'm getting mine french braided, however). Can't wait to do this! Cute results!
woahhh!!! so that's how it becomes like that! also can you make a video of all of that hair products that you use and how often? I'm a newbie and i don't want to damage my hair anymore than it already is... :D
Love your vids. Chile, you gave all of that beautiful hair. Your hair is healthy and full of body. Nice braidout. Gotta cop your shine spritz. Doesn't seem to leave a greasy mess but the right amount of shine and luster.
Do you always do your braid outs on blown out hair? I seem to stray away fro heat because it dries my hair out, but I guess it's a good way to ensure that your hair will be dry when you take your braids down the next morning.
How long have you been natural? I've only been natural 3months...after transitioning for 6months...just wondering how far along you are now? I've watched all your videos thanks for all your time and hard work to help us new naturals :)
@AriHunterPhoto Hey chica! I did a blow-out beforehand just to give my braid-out more length. However, most times I do my braid-outs on wet hair. If you have problems trying to braid shorter hair, blowing out with cool air is an option to get more length.
Bump the 6 haters. Your hair looks great girl. My hair is going to look just like yours when it grows out. :-) You've inspired me to make the big cut and just go natural. Great channel and styling ideas. Thanks!
you and your hair are just beautiful! I want my hair like yours so bad, can you make a video of what you do to take care of your hair and stuff like that? p.s i am a fan and im so thankful of the videos you make!
the way you braided your hair made it seem so difficult. But maybe you were doing it that way so members could know how to braid if they didn't know. Love your channel Mae!
I used your sweet shine stuff the first time around before taking the braids out, and it didn't work very well for me. But I tried again and I applied the solution to my hair before actually beginning the braids. It worked! Is there any issue with applying your recipe mix before braiding?
Nice vid and ur highlights really come out well in this style, which leads to my question. What did u use to color ur hair and was it done professionally? I looked thru ur vids but couldn't find anything m. Thanx
the blow out was fab! and i am dying to get some KBB products, having used only the milk and nectar (and loved them) i am so curious about the rest! your hair is just pure lusciousness! your braidout is fabulous, mine never come out looking like that, so i stick with twistouts when i don't do wash and go's. i love your top at the end! :)
@msladynatural00 oh not at all! The company is very small...it began with just one (or a few ladies) and they handmake each batch rather than mass produce. I think the demand is now too high for them which is why they closed their online store back in December. If you join their FB page, they give daily/weekly updates on shipments to their retailers. You will have to buy their products directly from the store unless you luck up & are able to purchase from their one online distributor.
@isouro Thanks! I had my highlights done professionally and I don't remember which color I chose. I just pointed to a color they had in a book lol. Sorry I don't have more info for you!
Did u use Henna for the color!? if so what color did you use? Love your videos! ty! If n e one knows what Henna can turn my hair that color please let me know! Thank you!!!!!!
hey, i watch your videos all the time, and they have inspired most of my styles. i'm 11 months natural and i have about 61/2 inches of hair when stretched and about 3 inches or less with shrinkage. my question is that you always do a center part, and these don't fit the shape of my face... please can you do a tutorial on atleast one side path style... i've tried them but they always hang weirdly.
@mediamamachick Hi, I occasionally blow my hair out before twisting or braiding to give my hair more length in the particular style. Because I am applying heat, I do not do this often. I mainly do my twist-out and braid-out styles on wet, freshly washed hair. This is what works for me and I do not encourage everyone to try this. Thanks for watching!
Have you been experiencing any increased shedding or shredded ends since using the Tangle Teezer? Alot of people have been saying that they have been experiencing alot of horrible ends
hola chica. i was just wondering what you used as a heat protectant. I looked in the information section but i did not see that information provided. thanks in advance.
I know that hair touching is a big issue within the natural community, but every time I see your hair I just want to touch it! LOL. Since I can't, I just reach up and play with my own head-fluff. Haha! I love natural hair so much. Your blowouts and braidouts are soooo enviable!!!
i love how you did this , so im doing the same at this very moment , my sister did my blow out with heat protector , then im going to use motion nourish leave in conditioner and softee signature african shea butter ( hair and scalp conditioner)
hey i love your vids! but i have a question, i wear alot of rods and rollers; like two strand twist and then rolling it up after. I dont use heat but i use aloe gel for the hold and let my hair air dry over night. but i feel like doing this a lot is messing up my "curl" pattern and making my ends straight! do u think that could happen? rollers messing up your curl pattern?
Her background music makes me feel like Im watching Lil' Bill
😂😂
💀
I remember when she posted this video. I was SO obsessed!!
The music was reminding me of the Cosby Show.
I love the hair!!
I ENVY your hair's THICKNESS!!
love it. Just started doing my hair like this. I don't like wet twist outs. My hair is tightly coiled. Love the blow out better. More volume. Great job!
I love how the music got more intense when you took the first braid out LOL. It fits perfectly :) The results are beautiful!! My hair is almost this long, I cant wait to try it out :D
I am a natural hair stylist and braider and I really enjoy your vids.Always informative and u have an amazing spirit.Stay blessed!
i wish my mom would listen to me about this stuff. she blew out my hair on high. saying i didnt do it right lol. >.>
The struggle. My mom doesn't believe in heat damage

NikkiMae never disappoints me! Beautiful!!!
That tangle teezer is great!! You were the first one I saw using it, so I went out and bought one--Thank you, it saves so much time!!
You have such a beautiful voice, and such a cool blow dryer and gorgeous hair!

You should just wear it how you had it after the blow out lol. Your hair is sooo beautiful

I get so exited when you put up a video. Can't wait to get to your length.

Mae,

VERY PRETTY MAE! I'm gonna try the shine spritz.
Lovely, please share the recipe for your Homemade Shine Spritz~

your hair always looks so beautiful! i love it! keep it up!!!
I continut to learn new things! Great idea - twisting towards the end of a braidout. I will def try it. Beautiful as always.
@AriHunterPhoto Hey chica! I did a blow-out beforehand just to give my braid-out more length. However, most times I do my braid-outs on wet hair. If you have problems trying to braid shorter hair, blowing out with cool air is an option to get more length.
I never used Karen's Body Beautiful products before. I need to check them out. Your hair beautiful.
Bump the 6 haters. Your hair looks great girl. My hair is going to look just like yours when it grows out. :-) You've inspired me to make the big cut and just go natural. Great channel and styling ideas. Thanks!

i literally love it. it came out so so good on you. can’t wait to try 🥰
Gorgeous results!! I'm also curious to know what is in your shine spritz:)
Gorgeous. Gonna try this out this week, hoping it will turn out half as lovely as yours did. Fingers crossed!
you and your hair are just beautiful! I want my hair like yours so bad, can you make a video of what you do to take care of your hair and stuff like that?
p.s i am a fan and im so thankful of the videos you make!
so after you blew out your hair,,,it had a very nice shape to it. Do you get your trimmed professionally and if so, how often do you trim your ends.
Your hair is bonita chica! I'm going natural REAL SOON! Hopefully as soon as of next week I'm very excited! :)
the way you braided your hair made it seem so difficult. But maybe you were doing it that way so members could know how to braid if they didn't know. Love your channel Mae!
does this only work on natural hair? loev your videos btw!
STUNNING!!!!! Do you think this will work on shorter hair?
I used your sweet shine stuff the first time around before taking the braids out, and it didn't work very well for me. But I tried again and I applied the solution to my hair before actually beginning the braids. It worked! Is there any issue with applying your recipe mix before braiding?
Nice vid and ur highlights really come out well in this style, which leads to my question. What did u use to color ur hair and was it done professionally? I looked thru ur vids but couldn't find anything m. Thanx
it looks great, I gotta try that shine spritz I haven't used avocado oil in ages.
the blow out was fab! and i am dying to get some KBB products, having used only the milk and nectar (and loved them) i am so curious about the rest! your hair is just pure lusciousness! your braidout is fabulous, mine never come out looking like that, so i stick with twistouts when i don't do wash and go's. i love your top at the end! :)
omg ur hair is soo beautifull..!!! how long have you been naturall???
Nikki- How often do you blow dry your hair? Do you think that blowdrying it weekly before twisting it will be too much? Thank you!
My question is what raw honey did you use for your spritz
LUV your hair!
Lovely as usual! Your fro is bananas!! Your braid outs give me feva!
@msladynatural00 oh not at all! The company is very small...it began with just one (or a few ladies) and they handmake each batch rather than mass produce.

0:41 wow girl! your hair is so full and luscious! love it
@MsCaribbeanChick LOL! you had me worried when I started reading the beginning of your comment! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! : )
MAN!!! ur hair is GORGEOUS!!!!
@DuChesSTwiNkl3 The color is actually from highlights done professionally at a salon. Thanks!

@isouro Thanks! I had my highlights done professionally and I don't remember which color I chose. I just pointed to a color they had in a book lol. Sorry I don't have more info for you!

what kind of blow dryer is that? i need one with the pic attachment
Beautiful hair! Beautiful chica! May God continue to richly bless you!
I love the results! Can this look be achieved with braided, synthetic? I'm thinking of installing afro kinky hair and love the braid-out look!
You might have to set it with hot water since its synthetic.!!
Thanks!
@mediamamachick Hi, I occasionally blow my hair out before twisting or braiding to give my hair more length in the particular style. Because I am applying heat, I do not do this often. I mainly do my twist-out and braid-out styles on wet, freshly washed hair. This is what works for me and I do not encourage everyone to try this. Thanks for watching!
on a daily basis what do you primarily use your spray bottle for? can i make one with just water and olive oil for transitioning hair?
Have you been experiencing any increased shedding or shredded ends since using the Tangle Teezer? Alot of people have been saying that they have been experiencing alot of horrible ends
your hair is beautiful as always!
Your hair looks so healthy.
@allsuccess1 Thanks! It's actually from Doris New York (you can check their site online)
hola chica. i was just wondering what you used as a heat protectant. I looked in the information section but i did not see that information provided. thanks in advance.
Gmg your hàir is beautiful I just resently grew my hair from a perm and wanted my that well defined Braid out look
❤❤❤❤❤❤d how your hair turned out!!
I know that hair touching is a big issue within the natural community, but every time I see your hair I just want to touch it! LOL. Since I can't, I just reach up and play with my own head-fluff. Haha! I love natural hair so much. Your blowouts and braidouts are soooo enviable!!!
Very pretty! How many days does your braid out last?
Love the video would you mind telling me the name of your heat protectant? thanks
Best music for a tutorial EVER
OMG I LOVE YOUR HAIR!
Love your hair and music! Where did you get your blowdryer, it's cute?
