How to do nigerian braid Videos

OMG!! This is exactly what I needed. I never realized that with cornrows the braid is reversed! I used to know how to do these when I was really little, like 5/6, but I stopped for whatever reason. And since I was young, it wasn't like I knew what I was doing as far as the internal workings of the braid so naturally after stopping I forgot. I alway ask my mom and she just says "practice" -__- O mom, It's kind of hard to practice when you don't know what to be practicing lol

As a student stylist for Empire Beauty School who hasn't learned any braiding techniques yet, I decided to take it upon myself to learn braiding outside of school. Today, I have watched about 7 videos (no lie) on cornrows. I've been trying and trying and I get a mess! I watched this video ONCE and I wish you could see my mannequin right now!! All I have to say is WOW! & THANK YOU!! Thank you sooo much, I feel very confident cornrowing hair. You guys are great! =D

Thank you for your video. Your video helped alot. If it wasn't for your video I won't be able to do it coz other videos I've watched I mess up. I watch your video 2 times and I try it on my daughter and wow it looked good and my daughter loves it. I did half so nexts time I will do from top to bottom. You made it look easy by using your yarns. So thank you so much:-)

I just watched your tutorial about 5 times and tried it on my doll (Im really trying to learn this lol). I think I may have it. The yarn was very helpful. Im a visual person also so seeing it on the yarn helped me. Now I have to learn how to do it on my hair. Just wanted to say thanks for the informative vid. This was the most helpful one yet.

@MzMuChi3 Ha! Ahh, sorry to hear that :). Are you able to cornrow on someone else's hair? If not, that would be my advice. Definitely learn to braid on someone other than yourself first. If you can practice on a friend or even a doll, you'll find it so much easier to do it on yourself. That's what I did and it worked like a charm :).

OMG I DID IT!!!! I DID IT!!!!! YAAAAAY!!! THANK YOU JESUS!!! Oh you just don't know how LONG I've been wanting to learn how to cornrow AND I DID IT watching your video!!!!! I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!!!! LMBO!!!! HAAAA!!!!! Thank you so much!!! ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^!!!! I KNOW HOW TO CORNROW!!!! :D

I have watched at least 40 different videos on how to learn to cornrow. I even tried to watch them turning my laptop upside down. You video is the FIRST and ONLY video that made it simple to understand and learn how to cornrow! Thank you soooooo much!! :)

omg! this is amazing. ive been trying to learn how to cornrow for days! ive seen every video of it on youtube and nothing... but this one did it! i only watched it twice and i did my 1st cornrow. thanx so much and i am soo subscribing!!!

This video is amazing and really helped me understand what I was doing wrong. I always make French braids instead of Dutch when trying to cornrow, now I understand that the middle part goes over, not under. Thanks so much.

Thank you so much for posting this under WhoisSugar's video. I just recently mastered plaiting my hair, and now I'm going to give cornrowing a try. I'm going to get four colors of yarn and everything! :-) Thanks again!

My friend does hair and she wanted to know how to cornrow and it was hard for me to explain it and I love that you use different yarn colors, so I think she'll be able to learn how to cornrow hair.

@MrSoCo100 That's so awesome!!! I'm glad you found the video easy to follow. You must be a visual person like me. Thanks for taking to time to comment with great feedback. Always good to hear :) x

@GirlsLoveYourCurls it looks very complicated! lol. but the next day i learned i did my lil sister some cornrows half way so it would look like a headband. she loved them! lol. thanks a lot!

Great tutorial! I have watched several of your videos tonight! I'm going to buy some weave thread tomorrow so that I can try the African threading method on my daughter's hair this weekend.

Yes!!! Finally after looking at videos all afternoon, here is one that I get. Nobody showed hand movement but when you crossed the yarn it totally clicked. Thank you!

@Gutimt Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. I really do appreciate when people give me feedback on a video. I am so glad they helped you!!! Take care xx

I really hope u will continue to do such video's (since i'm a big fan now..lol), cos it really really helps..and thanks the kids for being so patient...they r lovely!

@Ajhalene lol! I wouldn't have thought of turning the laptop upside down! I am so glad the video helped you! Thanks for taking the time to watch and to comment! :)

@MrSoCo100 THAT IS SO AWESOME!!! I'm so glad the video helped. Thank you so much for taking the time to give feedback. Made my day :) Good luck with school! xx

@kenbrid Thank you! Yes, I will be doing more vids. I'm really enjoying it. My distraction techniques (Movies, colour pages etc) work like a dream :).

This tutorial is so helpful especially with the yarn to show the pattern of the Dutch braid in order to do cornrows..exactly what i was looking for

Your use of the colored yarns is ingenious!! I FINALLY totally understand the different braid techniques. Gurl, you are the bomb!! :) :)

@inicoleking You are so welcome! You'll be amazed at how quickly you'll pick it up, with a little parctice. Let me know how you get on.

@GirlsLoveYourCurls i tried and failed miserably lol. do u have any tips for someone who is trying to do this on their own hair? thx

This is by far the easiest cornrow tutorial for me to understand. The colored yarn was an amazing idea! Adding this to my faves!

@lekababe01 Sorry for the late response, but thank you! It makes me so happy to hear you were able to braid on your daughter! xx

@kiiss3z1 I am so happy to hear that! It looks complicated, but once you get it, you're on a roll! lol. Thanks for watching! :)

OMG! After watching this video twice I learned how to do my hair!!!! Thank you so much! You are the best tutorial I have seen!

This is such a sweet comment! thank you very much and I'm glad you found the video helpful xx

Thank you for watching it! Lol appreciate the support x

Thank you :)

Are you serious? I find that when I soak them in apple cider vinegar and rinse it out, it doesn't itch as much. It actually didn't itch at all. You can try that and see if it works for you.

Aww thanks a bunch and thanks for watching :-)

lol Titi you r such a dork and I mean that in the nicest possible way :) The way you were twirlling your head at the end reminds me of the first time I got "attachment" in my hair when I was five years old :)

She meant real hair because African American or African women usually use synthetic hair to braid into their natural hair to made it longer. Most don't have naturally long hair.

wow! .....orogun,ibadan ...... i went to abadina college u.i. ibadan.... i live at orogun for more than 10years ......titilayo enjoy urself ....... go girl ... go

titilayo, you are amazing! u remind me of how cheap it is to do hair in Nigeria. Keep it up! I hope u get well recognized for this work you do!

He said because your hair looks like attachment not your hair doesn't need attachment. =)
