Now this is something I am super excited about because as much as I love braids, I am not patient enough to sit through the process of making it or taking it out either; hence I had not braided in 11 years until yesterday when I discovered the crochet braids secret. I’ll tell you about the crochet braids.
It is called crochet braid because the tool used in fixing it on is a crochet pin; yes the same one used for knitting. The difference between the crochet braid and regular braids is that the attachment comes braided already so all that needs to be done if hook it to your hair with a crochet pin. There are other styles of the crochet weaves but I will be focusing on the braided ones. I’ll share a video I found on YouTube that shows exactly how to make it.
How to get the Crochet attachment?
There are several brands and styles of the crochet braids including the popular KrochetKulture by on-air personality Stephanie Coker. There are other more affordable ones. Just visit a popular hair dealer that stocks a wide range of weaves and attachments and ask for the Crochet braids.
Why I love Crochet braids?
It does not take time to make! I sat for less than an hour when I made mine
Unlike regular braids, it allows a lot of space between your scalp so it does not get itchy
It is already made and super neat so the last thing on your mind is if the stylist knows how to braid properly or not.
Taking it out is also as easy! What’s not to like? It feels like eating my cake and having it.
