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!

  6. Hi,

    I live i Brooklyn, I would love to have this style done, though I would like it shorter and very full, like a big curly fro. If you can do this, please email me so I can make and appointment! Thanks so much, I’m so excited!

    xoxo,

  8. 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!
