Below are some common questions Breanna gets asked about this hairstyle;
How long does it take to do Crochet Braids? It can take you a couple of hours or longer to install depending on your skill level.
Do Crochet Braids Hurt? Crochet braids do not hurt but if your braid pattern is too tight then it will hurt and cause you unnecessary hair loss and scalp irritation.
What hair is best for Crochet Braids? Using any hair from the FreeTress Braiding Hair line are great options to use but for a more kinky look, I suggest kanekalon or Marley braiding hair.
Do I need to have natural hair to do Crochet Braids? No, you can do this hairstyle with relaxed, transitioning or natural hair!
Will Crochet Braids work for short hair? Yes, as long as your hair is long enough to be cornrow braiding then you can achieve this crochet hairstyle.
How much hair do I need for Crochet Braids? You need about 2 to 4 packages of braiding or crochet hair. I used 2 1/2 packs of kinky curly hair that I ordered off Amazon.com. You can use as much hair as you like but remember that using over 2 bundles will cause your hair to look extremely full so it all depends on the desired look you want to achieve with your hair.
