This is for all of us still in our TWA, awkward hair length phase. Just want to inform us that we can fake it till we are sure that we have made it.
My 8 month old hair is just a little bit more than a stub and is not at all growing the way I expected that it would. Maybe it is just that I follow too many Instagram accounts and I see too many pictures of perfect hair.
But, while I wait (and pray) for my hair to be like that, this is how I fake my fro…
I used:
• 3/4 of a pack of Noble Kinky Bulk hair.
• A crotchet/ latch hook needle.
Installing
•This post isn’t a tutorial but we already have a pictorial on how to crotchet hair here. I just used the same method.
• I left some of my own hair all around. Enough to cover the knots on the kinky hair when I pack it up.
• I did the rest of my hair into cornrows.
• I then did the crotchet into the cornrows I made.
•I packed everything up nicely.
Done.
Who else here fakes their fro?! ✋🏾✋🏾 Let me know in the comments.
Love and makeup,
Ella.
