Nothing new under the sun, and everything you did has already been done(c) lh

Watch in a high dp, it's worth it

here are some pics, but the video tells a better story

it's not box braids. the way the front of my hair is, is the way it is throughout

People out here (in the LA area) have hair like this. I like the cornrows when it goes further back, though. That may be new.

I think they're called tree braids, its like a cornrow but you leave a little hair out as you braid it down? Is that what you did?. It's really cute!

yes and no

it's in the pattern of a cornrow as it goes from the face to the nape

but its like a billion mini cornrows that go back
it's incredibly hard to take a picture of it by myself, the video goes more in depth with the process
