Ladies: can you french braid your own hair? (stylist, head, braids)

[FedupWNY]

When I let mine grow long enough, I can.

I can do my own better than trying to do it for someone else.

DragonFly, I'm actually the other way around, it usually takes me 3-4 tries to get it right.

Depends on the way I want it done. I tried to do a sewin once an when I tried to french braid in a circle, I ended up looking a hot mess .

Much easier to do my own than somebody else's.

I like inverted french braids best.

[pushkinswife]

Yes I can do lots of stuff to my hair, but I usually let my stylist do it

Bjones1976, normally my hair isn't long enough for french braids because it's easier to manage when it's short, though everyone I know says I look better with longer hair. Now that french braids are back in style, I might leave my hair longer for a while.

Yes I braid better on my own head.

[pitt_transplant]

I like to make mini ones where a headband would be to hold my hair back.

Better doing my own, too. I wonder why that is?
