About this deal
We can’t stress enough that crochet braids and all variations of crochet-based hairstyles allow for serious versatility. Even when you look through our inspo photos above, you see how diverse the styles can be.
Washing crochet braids or twists is one of the few areas where this style doesn’t excel as compared to other protective hairstyles. It can be done, but you’ll need to be careful as washing crochet hairstyles can shorten the lifespan of this style. Maintaining Crochet HairPut on a shower cap and let the pre-poo treatment sit on your hair for at least one hour, or leave it on overnight. Apply a moisturizing conditioner to your hair, focusing on your ends, as they need the most moisture.
After you finish installing the crochet hair along the horizontal braids, install the hair along the front of your head, repeating the same process but leaving less space between the strands. Skip the braids along your part for now. Protective styles and dirty hair don’t mix. Crocheting on dirty hair will encourage more dirt, product build-up, and a disgusting takedown when it’s time to remove your crochet braids in a few weeks. Step 2: Cornrow Your Hair Divide your hair into as many sections as you’d like. The smaller the sections, the easier they will be to comb through. Rinse out the pre-poo in the shower and follow up with the shampooing and conditioning steps listed below.If you’re a first-timer, crochet braids can be significantly easier to do compared to box braids, Fulani braids, or Senegalese twists. Even though you need to master the crochet technique, you’ll feel less stressed since you don’t need the world’s best cornrow skills to achieve this look.
