[llamaman25]

Damn you have nice biceps!!

[melodeezz]

[simplythabest2]

the way it looks at the beginning, is that a result from a twist out ?

[fotogenikk]

yep! :) @simplythabest2

[sweetlady1218]

[divinemissw]

Very Pretty!

[upanddown2812]

[cocopecan]

Wow, how simple was that! Thanks for sharing. I'll be rocking my afro puff all next week.

[babyphatkissez]

[Tiffanyantt]

nice video...so did you tie that stocking again in the back?

[fotogenikk]

In the video, yes I did :) @Tiffanyantt

[mamkhemnte]

Love the hairstyle. Also, on a tangent. You have great arm definition.

[misspinkgirl73]

Very good point about the scrunchies and rubber bands. I'll have to try your method.

[GlamorousKYANNA]

I like the texture of your hair it is so beautiful

[fotogenikk]

Thanks :) @GlamorousKYANNA

[CassieAfricanQueen]

Loved the video! Please subscribe to me and I will do the same for you. Thanks and keep the videos coming :) I just did my big chop last week SOOOOOO HAPPY.

[SMILEMKR29512]

Dang, Sis- SMILE! You did a great job! I have a twa but I'm still gonna try this! (Now, ...where is that stocking) lol

[87lovingueachday]

you're breaking your hair with that type of brush, use a denman brush!

[fotogenikk]

Thanks, I've been using bristle brushes for years and they work just fine on my hair, no breakage here. @87lovingueachday 

[smiley32s]

fine!!!!

[theGLAMlife01]

I love this. Thank you!

[fotogenikk]

@theGLAMlife01 your welcome :)

[BABYSOCKS86]

What did you do to make your hair kinky in the first place was it just washed and braided or just from a older puff . BTW it is beautiful I am biracial my hair is a nightmare , What do you do to keep you wrap on and what is it made of ? thanks

[fotogenikk]

I think that was a braid out or twist out. & I just used an old stocking and cut it, and used it to tie my hair @BABYSOCKS86

[fotogenikk]

I think that was like a week old braid out or twist out. I used a cut off stocking leg to tie my hair, you can use whatever works for you, an stretched out scrunchy works to because your able to tie it multiple times. @BABYSOCKS86

[p00h976]

show it show that butiful hair oh yea

[MsLadyFreak]

is there a reason why u chose to use the IC gel over the ECO gel?? Nice puff

[fotogenikk]

No, I just could never find the ECO styler gel.

I've actually stopped using the IC gel, now I use the ECO styler gel. I bought the big container @MsLadyFreak

[cupcakez14]

@fotogenikk My afro puff is verrrrrrrry big because i have alot of hair any tips on how i can make it look like urs??

[fotogenikk]

no, i actually use the eco styler gel now and not the fantasia ic styling gel @MsLadyFreak

[ladycateyes]

nice

[livebettertoday26]

TOO cute!!!! & your arms are SO tone! I LOVE it! LOL, I know it was a hair video but your arms look great girl!!! XOXO

[finenfabulouscious]

Beautiful. Love it.

[fotogenikk]

[tavey123]

@lourdia.... Chris brown sings this song.

[lourdia]

i want who is sing this song i like that.

[ItsSandyCheeks]

I love your puff i still cant do a nice looking one..so this vid kinda helped...I think I will blow out my hair and try it

[sweetp100]

I wonder how long it was for you to get your hair that length?

[fotogenikk]

6 months @sweetp100

[LaLa2gud4u]

Hi, can u do something about how you did your makeup?

Its looks G-R-E-A-T !!!!

[fotogenikk]

thank you, girl all i had on was some black eyeliner and black eye shadow with mascara, lol @LaLa2gud4u

[75tinatina]

u r beautiful... keep it up

[fotogenikk]

thank you, @75tinatina

[ebonyrose316266]

beautiful!

[TiffonaFontee]

Really cute and very quick!

[karmaJUNKEE]

I could never figure out what people used to tie their hair. This helped a LOT. I watched this before trying my first puff a little while ago. I'm transitioning [3 months post] so I bantu knotted parts and used various sized rollers to give my hair a variety of different "curls" lol.

[marae43]

pretty :)

[EricaDenise3]

check out my How to Make a Puff Video.

[senssasionale]

I love the outcome... my hair is much thinner but i will try this . Beautifullll your a darling

[fotogenikk]

thank you @senssasionale

[prettyyoungthing90]

CUTE

[SweetxBunny]

very cute. :)

[fotogenikk]

thanks, @SweetxBunny

[msnulife]

do u hav to hav a twist out before u do a puff or can u do a puff then twist out the puff.

[fotogenikk]

either way works, sometimes i cowash & do a puff, whatever works for you :) @msnulife

[msnulife]

ok thanks. my hair shrinks up a lot when i cowash.

[Ms101smiles]

very cute

[ubergirliz1]

What song is this?

[escapade08]

you have amazinggg skin :)

[fotogenikk]

thanks :)

[daluckyprincess]

I wish I could do this style, but gel doesn't hold my hair, it just gets frizzy like I never put gel in it.

[fotogenikk]

i dont use gel anymore, try a hair pomade with some water.. put a scarf on it to lay down the hairs, and u should be good to go

[denariarmstrong1]

I love my black sisters; never scared to try different this is what makes us who we are beautiful. Thanks for another idea!

[fotogenikk]

:) you're welcome

[shedozi]

Very nice puff. When I use this technique I always manage to get hair caught up in the stocking in the back and it pulls my hair. Any tips?

[fotogenikk]

that happens sometimes you just have to carefully pull the stocking and when your tying it make sure no hair strands are in it

[jwiggins7]

Yes she does look like Dawn...lol. That sounds like Chris Brown singin but not sure.

[LJBOY585]

@jwiggins7 i think the songs called cry no more by C. Brown

[chocolat80]

you look a bit like dawn richards lol

[fotogenikk]

lol, so i've been told... i dont c it tho

[xxfloridazfinestxx]

[JanelleGrace30]

Luv the puff

[fotogenikk]

thanks <3

[SooPrincessful]

Whats song is that?

[shayrene29]

thats pretty neat idea,greatjob.

[liondashs]

the stocking cap is a great idea ;)

really cute

[jazdj04]

i like the song choice and you favor kinkycoils

[kamona76]

nice!

[29psalm]

cute!

rock 'da puff!

[AfriQueen22]

what did u do to, or put in ur hair (other than the gel) b4 making the puff??

[fotogenikk]

well usually i wear a puff after wearing a braid out or twist out for a week or so.

soo at night, i put coconut oil on my hair.

& in a spray bottle i have a little mixture of water, leave-in conditioner, & coconut oil.. and i'll spray that on my hair

[cinnamon0810]

I love it!!!!!

[iluvbilltomkaulitz10]

WHAT IS THIS SONG !

by the way ; love the hair : ]

[duhhboo43]

chris brown:no more

[wanda954]

luv your puff!

[xshOrtiiSzdOpEx]

it works better if you wet your brush ! it works so good with gel!

[wanda954]

I prefer smoothing the gel on with my fingers....i think it depends on hair texture and if a brush is really needed.

[Mijn193]

girl it's nice you know

but did you comb your hair before making your puff because you know later you'll have a huge problem with it

that's how I make my puffs but I always comb my hair first

[adelarge]

I don't think this is always true...I don't always comb my hair before putting it in a puff. That would just add an extra 45 minutes to my morning routine...

[lynn1916]

have u considered using a leave in conditioner or oil?

[mg1024]

Great job!!! Very detailed and wonderful music.

[pending90zkidz]

you are soo beautiful!! im going to start taking my tips from you :-)

[Vanessa101a]

wuts this song called nice video

[pebblesrockstar]

I love that song... who sings it??

[Crazyalsometimee]

chris brown

[laDlinguist]

u have great songs! i can't wait till my hair's long enough to do a puff

[Niapb]

i tried your stocking idea and it was really loose and it looked like i had two puffs in my head.

do you have any other suggestions?

[fotogenikk]

did you tie the stocking tight enough? it shouldn't be loose at all.

that's the only method i know for doing my puffs.. i know they make really large elastic bands, u can try using one of those?

[Niapb]

thanksss, i'll try

[Niapb]

whenever i try to make my puff it always ends up being super small because the scrunches i use only get the ends of my hair into the puff. how long is your hair? cause the stocking idea looks really good.

[meccamoo]

OMG thankyou so much ! i did my hair like you did it and now my hair looks perfeCt ! thankyou veryr very much =D !!!!

[fotogenikk]

you're SO welcome :):)

[XMissSweeteeX]

[ladikira86]

[lostchild06]

@xchinababyx aint that the truth? so pretty

[trinilisa2]

nice..i like

[SoFlyCee]

very pretty, did you stretch it out first with a blow dryer?

[fotogenikk]

no i don't blow dry my hair at all.

i believe that was a braid out that i had for a couple days and was then putting it into a puff.

[Nysfinestbaby28]

I think ill use a really cute ribbon and maybe make it lower when i do it thanks for the help!

[fotogenikk]

you're welcome using a ribbon sounds like a great idea that'll look really nice

[Mahogany0615]

I tried this but the stocking snagged my hair..it causes my head to become tender..

[rosered1585]

i never thought to use a cut up stocking... great idea! and your hair looks great!

[DivineNubienne]

Love your hair

...I do exactly what my hair tells me to do & we get along just fine.

[leeshafaith]

YOU LOOK LIKE DAWN FROM DANITY KANE

[Hidaya2006]

nice hair!

[LaFemmeNoireRocks]

Mignonne! Cute!

[shecutess]

I used to do that too the first time i was natural at age 17...now im 24 and going natural again I plan to used the same technique. I usually tie it up. but your way is cool too. A little advice- you should draw your eye brows straight without the arch it just emphasizes the length of your face even more.

[BreathtakingBeyonce]

You look like you take such pride in combing your natural hair. Nice!

[anaturalbeauty3]

Thank you. That was helpful.

[CenetteB]

Fotogenikk is a good name for you. You look great. Not only can you make good vids on how to style your hair. You should also be able to do a video on how to get perfect biceps. Your arms look soo cool. Very nice muscles. I'm sure you hear this all the time but once more won't hurt.
