  1. questionDo you need to have your hair relaxed in order to get Micro Braids?

  2. questionWhat kind of moisture product do you use on the client's hair after you do Kinky Twists and Micro Braids?

  5. questionHow do you attach the Micro Braid hair to the piece parted out for starting the braid?

  8. questionI am trying to do my own Micro Braids. Do you have any tips on finger positions that would be different from doing another person's braids?
    Braiding your own hair can be challenging, but it’s possible. The best advice I can give is to try to do what’s comfortable for you. My finger and hand positioning does not change that m...

  9. questionI ordered your Micro Braids DVD and noticed you didn't show how to do the slip knot technique. Why didn't you show this - and will it make your braids last longer?
    The reason why I didn’t demonstrate the slip knot technique in the video was because at that time, the knotting technique was not too popular and my clients were damaging their hair during the r...

  10. questionHow can you wash micro-braids and get all the dirt out?
    It is difficult to get all of the dirt out of the braid but, it is possible. You should be using a clarifying shampoo. This will rid the hair of all unnecessary dirts and oils. Once you've washed...
