This is a recent style I did for a beautiful young lady named Natalie. Curly Crochet braids….we did them Waist Length for her.
I didn’t take a pic of my braiding pattern but it was essentially the same way you’d braid hair for a weave…I made sure all her hair was braided down so it would have a beautiful smooth look to it. Here are the pix…enjoy!

AFTER!!!!




If you’re in the NYC area and interested in getting this protective style leave a comment for more info and I will get back to you promptly!
Even if you just wanna talk about the style itself and how it came out….Let me know what you think! Thanks for reading.

This is beautiful! I am approaching the 10th month of my transition from relaxed to natural. I’m definitely interested in rocking this style in the fall–maybe around the beginning of November, which will make it one entire year with no relaxer! I don’t plan on “big-chopping.” I just want to wait until my hair grows out to a length with which I am comfortable, and I think this will help!
