I'm a 22 year old guy, and I have been trying to braid my own hair for years. To everyone that is fed up and frustrated and contemplating just shaving their head (just like I was), please don't give up. It takes so many attempts, but I'm finally starting to get the hang of it. Please don't give up ❤️

I'm seeing so many people struggling and I used to be the exact same way! I have REALLY thick and long hair and I always thought I just wasn't capable. But if you keep practicing, you will get it, I promise!
Pro-tip that helped me learn: If you really can't get this method to work, try doing the exact same thing, except crossing the sections of hair under each other instead of over. The braid will look inverted, but nobody will notice. This is the method I use and it works every time now that I've practiced a lot.

Imma cry 😭😭😭 This is such a great tutorial, one of the easiest I could find online but I still couldn’t follow. My arms feel sore and my hair’s a mess 😭 I wanna practice this with the other anguished folks in this comments section 😂

[justemma]

Did anyone else just give up cause you couldn’t do it

[tey]

starting to think it’s genetically impossible :(

[yeetus]

Her hair: perfect
Mine, after trying for the hundredth time: tangled, with random strands everywhere, super thick and long, and not even halfway finished when the video ends

[alexanderdelgado]

Separating the hair in 3 strands is what's difficult, one always comes out too short half way through the braid

[hopefur]

Just braided my own hair for the first time! It’s not even close to perfect, but it’s braided. For everyone struggling, it really helps to keep the left and right strands over the shoulders until they get too short, which by then you should be able to bring the braid over to the front. Hope this helps! Idk what I’m doing but it worked for me😂

I wanna say I grew up without a mom figure majority of my life, so learning how to braid my own hair at 19 is super exciting:, ) I really thought I was just gonna go my whole life without knowing thank you

[starlaylaa]

omg I was literally having a mental breakdown about this tysm

[RockingAnimeFan]

I have a hard time making 3 parts that don’t have too much hair in each and I keep grabbing some hair from the other parts lol

[bigred]

I love how she says "stryand"

[alessyp]

Yeah I ended up doing a ponytail I CAN'T DO THIS LMAO💀

I'm a 12 year old and have been struggling with my hair for a while now since it's really frizzy. I was always struggling since my hair was always long as well, and not as smooth as yours. Except now I have figured out how to braid my hair all thanks to this video. Thank you for taking time out of your day to help others learn how to braid

I grew up braiding the hair of dolls, braiding my friend's hair, but for the life of me I could not get my hands to cooperate when attempting to braid my own hair until I, at about 23 years old, figured out that I could go under each center strand/dutch braid. Even then I really did need a step-by-step explain-it-to-me-like-I'm-4 video to help me out (really, I just slowed a video down to 25% speed and made frustrated noises for a while). I'm really uncoordinated once I can't see what my hands are doing, and videos like this would have been a big help back in the day. I still struggle because all three parts will constantly be different thicknesses

Thank you so much for having subtitles. I struggle with understanding people speaking when I haven't heard them for a long time, and having subs is such a lifesaver.

[avril]

I’m literally crying I can’t do this 😭😭

[melogranopazzo]

Just tried this on my self and after many attempts I did it! A very sloppy job, but it looks like a braid and it's not tangled. I think the secret is the finger placement. I never had any problems doing a basic braid on someone else's head, but on my self yes. On the first few tries I replicated the same finger movements I normally use when I braid someone else's hair, and that was the problem; since my hands where now facing backwards. So the trick is to really pay attention to her fingers. What I found useful is how she moves the strands of hair across the other with only her index finger and thumb, while the rest is held in place by the other fingers; and how she lets go of the middle strand of hair when she needs to cross it with the side strand. And of course you need to practice so that the movement becomes natural. I don't know if I explained my self properly, but I hope my comment was useful. English is not my first language so feel free to correct me.

For those of you having a hard time learning, until you get the hang of it, start off with a ponytail. If your hair is long, and that's why you're having trouble, hang the ponytail to the side, over your shoulder, then split it into 3 pieces & follow her directions from there. You'll be able to watch yourself work this way.
The biggest thing to remember, for a neat looking braid, is to pull it tight each time.
It's simple if you just remember that your left goes over the middle, then right over the middle, then left over middle, right over middle. Pull tight every time you pull the strand away from the middle

I just did my first braid on my own for the first time in my life 😂😂 thankyou so muchhhh
