Natural Hair | How I Get My Two Cornrows / Dutch Braids So Neat

PLEASE READ:

This isn't a cornrowing tutorial. In this video I share my technique to achieving super neat cornrows / dutch braids on my natural hair.

The Breakdown:

My hair is shampooed, conditioned, and detangled first. This makes it easier to glide my fingers through. To make my hair even softer and help my hair retain moisture longer, I sprayed it down with a liquid leave-in conditioner (creamy leave-ins can reduce the efficacy of the styling product). This also helps keep my hair wet and slippery while braiding.

I used mousse / foam as my styling product. Mousse provides enough hold and makes it easier to execute the style without the stickiness that usually comes with using gel. Mousse also dries faster!

Before sitting under the dryer, I wrapped the top of my head with two wrap strips to further ensure that my hair dried smooth and flat!

Treating this style as a "wet set" makes it dry neater, and it also lasts longer! I hope you love this video and I hope you give this method a try (if you haven't already).

If you would, please leave a comment, share, and "like" this video. Also, feel free to leave questions.

Thank you for watching!
