Learning How to Cornrow Takes Practice + Time + Patience

 One thing is an absolute when it comes to learning how to cornrow hair.  It takes a lot of practice and patience.  If you don't take the time that is needed to learn how to part and separate hair before trying to braid  and style it, you will definitely get discouraged and not try anymore.  Doing cornrows came fairly easy for me coming from a family that wears braids, and that has done braiding of hair for generations. 

My braiding skills have gotten better and better with each hairstyle that I create.  Just because you didn't come from a family of braiders, that doesn't mean that you won't eventually get the hang of creating beautiful cornrow styles on your daughter's hair.  Just be sure to practice and watch as many braiding tutorials as you can.  And I promise, at some point you will become a pro!

The purpose of this post is to encourage moms that enjoy cornrows, or individual braids for their daughters hair to stay encouraged.  In addition to you learning how to braid, let your daughter learn at the same time by you purchasing two doll heads that the both of you can practice on.

Good luck with the braiding journey! Please be sure to share your progress with us on our Facebook page at STYLES WITH PERSONALITY! 

If at some point you find that cornrowing or individual braiding is not for you, I invite you to give me a call for a FREE quote for your daughter's hair.
