Introduction
Hello, everyone! Welcome back to my channel. Today, I am thrilled to share with you a fabulous protective style that I recently discovered - the braidless crochet. In this video, I will walk you through the step-by-step process of achieving this cute and affordable hairstyle using only one pack of the amazing Joyful Curl hair by Freetress. You won't believe how quick and easy it is to create a stunning look with this versatile hair. So, without further ado, let's jump right into it!
1. The Joyful Curl Hair
The Joyful Curl hair by Freetress is a game-changer when it comes to crochet hairstyles. It comes in a length of 20 inches and is designed to give you a natural and voluminous look. The best part about this hair is that it is pre-separation, meaning you don't have to spend a lot of time separating the hair strands. This feature makes the style quick, easy, and budget-friendly.
2. Preparing Your Hair for the Style
Before diving into the braidless crochet technique, you need to prepare your hair. Start by sectioning your hair into two ponytails at the back and one at the front. This will provide the foundation for the style. Additionally, using a hair net at the back will add extra security to your style, ensuring it stays put throughout the day. Though optional, I highly recommend using the hair net for added peace of mind.
3. The Braidless Crochet Technique
Now, let's talk about the braidless crochet technique. This method involves crocheting the hair in the regular way, using a latch hook. Start by inserting the latch hook through both your natural hair and the net around the perimeter of your head. As you move towards the middle, you only need to crochet through the net, skipping your natural hair. This technique creates a seamless and natural-looking style.
4. Securing the Hair with a Hair Net
As you crochet the hair, be mindful of tying the crochet hair once or twice to achieve the desired tightness. When you reach the top portion of your head where the hair will fall over, you will notice that I only tie the knot through one side of the hair. This creates an invisible part look, giving the style a more polished appearance.
5. Crocheting the Hair in the Back
Now that we have covered the braidless crochet technique, let's focus on crocheting the hair in the back. It is essential to maintain a rhythm and consistency as you crochet the hair along the perimeter of your ponytails. By doing this first, you can ensure that the hair is securely attached to your natural hair and the hair net.
6. Styling the Top Portion
As we move to the top portion of the style, you have the freedom to play around with the amount of hair you want to use. It's all about personal preference. I recommend flipping the hair over to hide your natural hair and achieve a more uniform look. Fluff the hair to determine the desired amount, ensuring it matches the rest of the style. Remember, we want to create a seamless and natural appearance.
7. Wrapping the Hair
Now, let's wrap the hair around the actual ball of hair we created at the top. This step is crucial in hiding any visible knots and ensuring the style looks flawless. Take a piece of the crocheted hair and wrap it around the base of the ponytail. This will give your hairstyle a cleaner and more finished look. To ensure everything stays in place, use some hairspray or gel, and if needed, secure with bobby pins.
8. Finishing Touches
With the wrapping complete, take a moment to admire your finished look. You should now have a stunning, half up, half down hairstyle that is protective, stylish, and budget-friendly. The braidless crochet technique paired with the Joyful Curl hair has given you a look that is sure to turn heads. Feel free to add any finishing touches, such as additional hair accessories or embellishments, to personalize your style further.
