NEW STYLE: Tree Braids!!

YES YES YESSSS!! I have finally try my hand at Tree Braids (cornrow base). I am very pleased with the job. She is my first model for the style. I have been asked if and when I will be adding this to the list of services...

Well, I believe I am ready to make this the STYLE OF THE MONTH for DECEMBER!!

Actually I will let you be the judge (you can click on the photos):


The model's hair is the Batik by Outre brand (Deep Bulk). It is synthetic hair and 18" in length. In my opinion, it is best to get hair that is at least 18" to ensure the hair covers the braids. For now I am only doing Tree Braids with Curly or Wavy Hair textures because I know for sure I will be able to cover the braid. Until, I grasp the Curly and/or Wavy hair, straight hair will have to wait.  Oh, I braided some individual braids at the nape of her neck so, she can wear a ponytail.





It took me 6 hours from start to finish. I do know that's not a good time for this style however, she was my first Tree Braid client. My ideal goal time is 3 1/2 - 4 hours I just need some people who would like to help while getting this beautiful style. I am not sure if it will be for December or January, please give me some feedback.

If you would like to become a model for this style let me know:
  • I will need about 4 more ladies. 
  • I suggest that the hair has a curly or wavy texture. 
  • The hair should be in bulk form and not on a weft. 
  • Minimum hair length: 18" so hair can cover braids.
  • Also, if you don't mind, synthetic hair for now until this is completely mastered.

The model price for this style is $80.
