Next up: passion twists! I have a couple of videos about the whole process and things you should know *before* attempting this style. The first video is a prerequisite, if you will.

I *attempted* some cornrows and failed horribly

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥴" title="Woozy face" aria-label="Emoji: Woozy face"> Trial and error.

Fun fact: When I parted my hair down the middle, you couldn’t even see those janky cornrows!

Goddess box braids are also an option

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✨" title="Sparkles" aria-label="Emoji: Sparkles"> These braids were more on the chunky side. I’d personally try them a lil smaller!

Marley twists are a literal staple and probably the easiest style in this thread. If you’re a super beginner, start here. You CANNOT mess this up!

Box braids are the style I started my DIY journey with! This video is from YEARS ago but it truly is beginner-friendly.

Fun fact: sometimes I even do box braids with Marley hair! Gives a completely different look

These cornrows are multi-faceted, honey! Wear them out or use them as a good ole base for your wig
