My Goapele inspired style

Okay so since I saw that Essence video that was posted I knew I wanted to try that style.... its was much harder than it looked and time very time consuming!!! I never cornrowed my hair I usually flat twist cause I didnt know if I could actually braid my own hair! I used acrylic yarn on my hair since I am not familiar with the materials used in threading. I just wanted to stick with what I know works for my hair. I braided my hair using cantu leave in condish and I used shealoe mix.... (I washed and deep condished prior to doing anything) After braiding I added carefree curl activator (my hair love this stuff) I also put carefree on the yarn as a precaution... I can say the whole ordeal of braiding and wrapping took me like 10 to 12 hours... I struggled on the wrapping part and the parting part the easiest thing was braiding!! All in all im glad to be done and can show you guys!!!!
