You can take some out on the sides, so it won't be too bushy.

proud to say i was the first to do crochets with kanekalon hair on YTEmbarrassed...unfortunately i got locked out of my account and had to delete vids, because i couldnt respond to questions, etc...i now have a new account, and will do new vids whenever i crochet again...

the trick with this hair is to use as little as possible or you end up with a huge head of hair thats impossible to manage and which will tangle badly within days.

I would never use human hair to do this style. its a waste.

I have thinning in the crown area and wanted to know if crochet braids with curly hair will cover the thin areas?
