Your hair is gorgeous and I love that color
QUESTION: I usually do it in cornrows...if i do more corn rows the fuller my braid out? (like 10-12 braids
Wow, that's alot of cornrows you are planning on doing. with the satin scarf method, I don't know if you can fit 12 cornrows in. The more cornrows/ individual braids you have, the smaller the curls, and possibly the bigger your braidout. The max amount of cornrows I do is 4.
Yep, try it. It will definitely Not make your ends look ratty. That was my main goal when I started doing this method. Stop those scraggly looking ends and instead get nice curls at the ends.I will def try this method the next time I attempt a braid-out. Maybe it will stop my ends from tangling and looking ratty.
ETA: Thanks for sharing this!
I am sorry.I checked out the video last night and THOUGHT I had it. But, now I'm not so sure.
When you do the cornrows, do you use the scarf with each "3 sections" of hair? You know, when you grab additional hair, are you including the hair with each scarf tail.
OR, do you work the scarf tails "alone without hair"?
tongue depressors ...really...had to come back & comment cause i'm just sooo elated to find this vid! tell me why when i went to the doc monday, i stole some tongue depressors to set my hair on? i'll see the outcome sunday
saw it in a hair mag a long time ago, and i was like, "hey, that'll give me uniform waves all the way down!" lawd i feel dumb right nowtongue depressors ...really...
Ok, checked out your vids and wow what a great idea!!! Your results are so beautiful! I'm definitely gonna try this since i'd all but given up on braid-outs for my hair mainly because of the ends. I will be trying this with individual braids.
So you're using two pieces of scarf and one piece of your hair?
I am sorry.
I am actually cornrowing with the scarf and the hair mixed together. So yes, as I grab more hair, I am also including the scarf. However once I finish the cornrow and I am braiding this ends, I start to separate the hair from the scarf so I have 1 single hair section and 2 scarf sections.[/URL]

Okay, What will happen is, it will get kinda messy. And you won't be able to braid all the way to the end of your hair. The point of the scarf is to have something to braid your hair with until it reaches the end of your hair.Ok, why do you separate the hair from the scarf? What do you think would happen if you continued to keep the hair with the scarf tails?
Off to rinse conditioner out my hair...be back in a few minutes
