hey y'all so today's video is a
braidless sewing tutorial
i'm going to be showing you how you can
do this on yourself at home
so this video is sponsored by kawaii
hair make sure to check out those links
down below
so they sent me four bundles of the
brazilian body wave hair
i have two 24 inches and two 22 inches
as y'all can see this hair is a poppy
make sure to click those links down
below and now let's go ahead and jump
into the tutorial
all right so we got to get started on
our braidless sew in
and i just wanted to come and show you
how you want to have your hair prepped
before you start
you want to make sure it's clean i
washed my hair maybe like a few days ago
but
you want to make sure it's shampoo and
blow dry and that's it you do not want
to flat iron it don't want to put
nothing no type of heat in it other than
a blow dryer
reason being is because you want to have
a little bit of texture
to your hair so that way the beads um
can have like something to grip onto
like
if you relax you probably probably want
to wait until you got like a little bit
of new growth
or you know just something to have a
little bit of texture um to where you
know you can put these beads on and they
won't slide
out and i also want to share with y'all
the type of thread to use so this
is nylon thread like as you can see it's
that like silky
type of thread rather than the cotton
three you do not want to use cotton
thread when you're doing a braidless
sewing
cotton thread is going to like soak out
all your oils and like really dry your
hair out
nylon thread is definitely better to use
it's easier to use when it comes to a
braidless sewing nothing gets like
snagged or stuck
because it's so smooth it's so thin you
know what i'm saying so
get you some nylon thread bow of course
you want to have your micro links or
hair extension links is what they call
when you get them from sally's
and then you want to have a hair
threader you can also find this as
sally's
then of course you want to have the
little squeezy thing i'm not
hair pliers i think that's what he's
called yeah if you go to sally's or to
the hair store just ask for some hair
pliers
and this is what they should look like
not real pliers okay the hair pliers so
you can squeeze
the little bitty bee okay and last but
not least of course you want to have
some bundles
normally from what i remember whenever i
did a braille sewing i only use two
bundles
maybe like two and a half i do have
four bundles total from kawaii hair i
don't know if i'll be able to fit these
i'm pretty sure i won't because girl i
got a little beat ahead
i'll probably end up using two bundles
i'm gonna start off with my 24 inch
heels
oh girl i wish i could fit all of them
because that is just so pretty like this
hair is so luscious
oh so pretty you just need regular
bundles you don't need the little
special link or anything because this is
not micro links this is a braidless
sew in so you actually need like the
wefted hair and as long as you got like
a couple bundles
you're good to go here's how you want to
have your hair kind of like you was
about to do
a braid pattern for like you know a
regular sewing you want to have your
little leaf out
and leave out your perimeter
just like that so first you want to
start by making a part just like you was
doing clip-ins or glueing or something
like that
and make sure to pay attention because
each part i do is going to get better
and better because i was kind of like
re-teaching myself as i went because i
haven't done a braid lips in so long
and i haven't done one on myself so it
was kind of tricky getting the hang of
it at first
but you just want to thread the um hair
threader with beads i kind of put like
six to seven on there just to you know
go ahead and do the whole entire part
without having to restock
the beads and then you just want to make
a part
just about that size thread your hair
through the hair threader
scoop the bead up just like that and
then just push it on through to where
that bead is
up on near your scalp
then you just want to go across that
whole section and continue making the
little parts
putting your beads on just like that
so this is the very foundation of what a
braidless sew-in is just adding those
micro lengths in a row
creates a foundation to sew on instead
of having a braid
[Music]
now it's time for the hair pliers you
just want to go and scoot that bead up
and squeeze it
pay attention this right here too tight
y'all will see at the end um how i
explain how tight this um
install was i'm actually going to show
you guys one bead that i actually did
pretty loose that was actually perfect
but i ended up going and
tightening it because i thought it
needed to be like this type it does not
need to be this tight on your scalp
now i'm just taking my bundles i'm
making sure to double that width so
everything can be nice and full
and also this is another piece a key
piece of
um what i did better as far as doubling
my wefts make sure to keep watching
because on that third row i'm going to
show you guys
exactly how to double your wefts when it
comes to a braille zone really any sew
in to make sure
you know it's nice and flat and you
don't have a bulky look
because you doubled your wefts so just
keep watching
[Music]
okay so boom row two we getting better
now pay attention to how i parted row
two in comparison to row
one you want to part it like thinner and
not
stickle if that makes sense like you
want your part to be
thinner that way your install could be a
lot more fully you could fit a lot more
hair
in your install when you make thinner
parts i hope that makes sense i i'm sure
y'all can see the difference between how
i parted the first one how i parted the
second one
the second one is what you want to do
the first one and
not so much
[Music]
so
do
[Music]
right here do y'all see that that was
actually perfect
okay y'all gonna see me go back and like
retighten it but i just want y'all to
look at that one look at that look
that was actually perfect when i scooted
it up i made it too tight like y'all
y'all my head was screaming at me y'all
will see you at the end but
this is how everything should be looking
so far you got your
tracks sewn on okay no braids what it do
oh and this part very important this is
how you want to start doubling your
webs so you want to put two webs
together of course but you want to put
that second weft
down maybe like a half inch to an inch
so that way it's not bulky on the side
that way you can pull it up into a
ponytail without you seeing a whole
bunch of tracks that way it's laying
flat
i always used to do this like even with
regular sewing so
i just implemented this with my braille
[Music]
lid
[Music]
then when you're finishing the other
side you want to make sure you cut that
inside track
shorter than the outside track like have
it ending on like the second to last
beat
that way it can look you know the same
as what you started with
with that outside track being longer
than the inside so you can have a flat
install
i also want to add that you can leave
hair out in between your rows as for me
i did every single row because i wanted
my install to be super full
and i'm not really going to worry about
wearing it like half up half down so
like when you party you can see like the
beads and stuff
but if you do want to wear styles like
half up half down or something like that
then you want to make sure to leave out
you know that little bit of hair in
between the rows so you can cover
the tracks both ways
[Music]
so for my rose at the top i decided to
just go single with my wife so it don't
be like you know super bulky or whatever
and yeah we about done i'm just
measuring cutting that weft
sewing it on and i guess i want to show
y'all right here
how you really want to sew on these
wefts because i really like the camera
couldn't really get a good angle of me
sewing
but as you can see i'm going like um
horizontal on the row if that makes
sense like i'm i'm sewing
basically uh the same shape as the bead
is going
i am so terrible at explaining stuff but
i hope
that made sense maybe i'll show it again
let's see
there we go y'all see how that needle is
going like back
if you was braiding the sewing you would
be going like vertical but with a braid
lift sewing you want to be going
horizontal you want to be going the same
direction as the roll
like going around instead of up and down
yeah
there we have it honey we done we done
it was not too hard was it
so now i'm just uh taking down my leave
out and my perimeter getting ready to
style it
brush it all in together style it all in
together
and look at that look how natural that
braidless beetle like i just
love it love the braidless install so
many benefits to a braidless you can
pull it up
not quite yet okay it's too tight but
you can pull it up in a ponytail you
know
half up half down you wear so many
different styles with this install
another thing it is so
like freeing like if you like to have
your scalp free you like to itch scratch
scalp if you like to oil your scalp and
you do not like your hair being all
cooped up with a sew in
braidless is definitely for you it's
just so versatile
once again like i just love it like look
at that girl
yes my hair whose hair my
period so we about to get ready to style
it i'm just going in with my pressing
comb
i'm just getting everything straight i'm
gonna do some crimps you always seem to
use my crimper or whatever
and yeah that's it
[Music]
so
[Music]
hey okay i am
feeling this y'all when i say this took
some time it is
3 39 a.m i probably started on this at
like
8 o'clock it was still like light
outside it was probably like 7
30 8 o'clock and i'm just not finished
with
the install and styling it like it took
so long of course i took like a little
small mini breaks
but it didn't take a long time i'm not
going to even hold y'all up
normally like from what i remember like
doing this on clients it only took like
maybe two hours
but on myself like i told y'all this is
my first time doing this
um install on myself so you know trying
to reach to the back of your head and
trying to
you know what i'm saying see in the
mirror and stuff so yeah it did take a
while to finish this myself
but i feel like once i got my groove
like i was maybe halfway
done i really started speeding up and
really getting the hang of it but
i am really happy i think it was
definitely worth it all the
hours it was definitely worth it because
i love
love this so much and i was also a
little worried about how it would blend
with my hair like as far as my hair
being like up here
and the weave being you know 24 inches i
didn't know if it would look good or
like if it'll like you know blend in but
as y'all can see
not choppy at all everything blends in
so good
you can't even see my hair like this
looks
so good i'm so excited i'm so happy with
this y'all
i did use here got my left over here i
didn't use um one bundle
um so i got me a whole bundle left over
which is 22 inches
and then i have like a little bit of 24
i forget which one it is
and a little bit of 22 left over so in
total i think i used three and a half
bundles
which i did not expect i only expected
to use two
but i'm really happy that i was able to
squeeze in so much hair because
i was a little worried about that too
like is it gonna be full because you
know the longer your hair is
you know the more bundles you want to
have so it can look nice and full so
yeah about two and a half bundles
everything came out so great i am in
love i'm gonna have this install in for
a hollow mini because i just love me a
braidless install
now one thing about this is it is tight
okay
this is tight i feel like i got some
braids even though this is a braidless
sewing i do feel like my hair is braided
because of how tight it is
and um yeah i definitely should have
moved the micro link
down a little more so it won't be so
tight on my scalp but i definitely can't
go in and like you know undo the
you know squeeze it make it a circle
drag it down a little bit and squeeze it
back so i can kind of like loosen it up
in some spots
because i was like girl chocolate just
in the ponytail was like oh
no so yeah that was really like the only
thing i would change is not making this
so
tight but everything else like girl i
just i'm
in love i am in love i can't even start
touching this hair i love this hair by
the way
shout out to kawaii here y'all make sure
once again check those links down below
in that description box
this hair is beautiful as y'all can see
this is the natural body wave but i went
on and threw in some crimps
just to get it all you know blended
together with my hair and everything but
this hair is beautiful i love it it's
nice and full
the ends as y'all can see i've offered
the full yet
the ends are nice and full and i just
really really love this hair i love this
install i can't wait to do like some
different styles i can't wait to like
pull it up once it loosens up okay once
i get it loose
i'm gonna definitely be wearing it like
you know in the ponytail because
girl a brayliss will have you delusional
like this is this is my hair

braidless install i would definitely try
