Not quite right...micro braids have free flowing hair only at the end of the braid. Our camouflage open braids start with free flowing hair close to the scalp. This is a good method for clients with longer hair
@MagicStyleAtelier Ok but can u do it on black woman hair also. I seen someone hair done like that and i thought it was another way u do mirco braids.
Sure, it can be done on every type of hair. visit our website, we have hundreds of customer photos. If you sent me a message I can send you a direct link to our photo album online.
It is not exactly like mircorbraids. We camouflage the braids so that you have free flowing hair starting close to the scalp, no matter how long your own hair is. The hair we use is our own brand called Magic Style Heat. We sell it in our online shop. But you get similar hair at ebonyline. Just look for miss willow/elements on that site
Thank you :) It takes between 8 and 12 hours depending on the length of the client's hair and the size of the braids. As we are located in Germany a lot of our clients have quit long hair but want a different texture, more volumen and/or length without damaging their hair. That is why the pick the open braids technique.
Nicht ganz. Echt invisible braids kann man nur bei sehr kurzem Eigenhaar einflechten. Das sind dann millimeterdicke, superkurze Zöpfe.
Bie langem Eigenhaar empfiehlt es sich die Zöpfe bis über das Ende es eigenen Haare hinauszuflechten und die Zöpfe dann zu kaschieren. Damit vermeidet man das der Unterschied zwischen Eigenhaar und dem eingeflochtenem Haar auffällt und das eigene Haar kann sich so auch nicht mit dem eingeflochenem verheddern.
Für langes Eigenhaar wir eine spezielle Flechttechnik verwendet. Das eigene Haar "guckt" dann nicht raus, es ist völlig unsichtbar. Dadurch kann man ja gerade auch exterme Veränderungen erzielen, z. Bsp. von glatt auf lockig. Schau doch einfach auf unserer Homepage vorbei, wir haben auch Vorher-Nachher-Fotos.
We have online classes, but they are currently only in German (google Magic Style Club). I hope I find time to translate them at some point. We give courses in our salon and could do that in English.
Ja klar, wir machen auch Dreads! Wir haben einige Videos zu Dreads hier auf YouTube und auf unserer Homepage findest Du viele Kundenfotos und Informationen zu unseren Dreadlocks.
hi there love what you have done to her hair but just whanted to know if you braided all her hair from top to bottom and are they micro braidsor bigger coz her hair looks quite full. Would it be okay to use stright synthetic hair and get the same look as your vidio
We braided below her own hair to protect it but left out a strand of braiding hair at the base to camouflage the braids. The braids are not super small micros because her hair is very fine and we did not want it to break. The hair in the vid is synthetic hair Miss Willow/Elements French Bulk which you can buy online at Ebonyline (look under heatable hair).
Her/your hair looks really beautiful, it looks like it was very well done, but I'm wondering, why not just curl it? It seems like it would save a lot of trouble. (Or maybe it's just how it looks to me, I just see curly hair, is it more than that and I just don't see?)
Well, she has curly, much longer and fuller hair now. Her own hair is straight and shoulder long. Plus curling hair (=perm) is damaging. Braiding in hair is not.
The style lasts at least 3-4 months. You can wash and style the hair as you desire. A few of our customers even keep it for 6 months. But that is not recommended for everyone.
i can just not those because it takes so long and i hate sitten there that long how much do you charge or how much was it 2 get your hair done and how much was the hair o i seen the small braides in the front and a track (weave) in the back it was really pretty
Yes, this style is a lot of work and therefore takes long and is expensive. But I like that you can wear it in so many ways. I braid my own hair. Have a look at the MagicStyleAtelier profile and look for video "Heike's Open Braids". It shows me and my hair. You are right, the braids/weave combination is nice too, but I love this style better. We take around 350 Euros for very fine braids (any length) hair included.
o ok lol i wish i wouldve new that and i kant get those braids anymore even tho they make your hair grow my hair is long and they braided it then tied it at the end and it was tied b4 my hair ended it was so hard 2 get out but i had those grade maybe 4 or 5 times i had the kurly kind one time then straight all the rest and it cost like 300 dollars
We don't tie it but braid down below your own and hair and then set a glue point on the braid. It is totally invisible. Your hair is better protected that way. And because we camouflage the braids, it does not matter how far you braid down. Why can't you get braids any more? I could not live without mine...
Oh, all you have to do is use clear shampoos etc. Braid shampoos are fine. Those products don't leave a residue in your braids. But if the human hair was the cheap kind I mentioned, it would have tangled. I wash my hair once a week. I have the same style as the girl in the video.
I had my hair like this they kall it zillions i was sitten there 4 8 hours i got it done by the africans and i had human hair for like 20 dollars i hope no one is affended but thats what shops are called
Human hair for $20? That is usually cheap asian hair without cuticles and will tangle like crazy after you wash it a few times. Good human hair costs considerably more. And no worries, we are not offended :). How long did your style last?
It is a new generation of snythetic hair called thermofiber. It combines the advantages of human and synthetic hair. It really looks and feels like human hair and can even be heat styled (curling iron and such).
i never knew that you all did this over there. I am black and i live in the use. they dont have shops out here like that! you all do a really great job! =]
Thank you, Chocolatelover123! There are African braiding salons in most bigger cities. Surely not nearly as many as in the US though :). Oh, I and also love chocolate! :)
Yes, we braid down the clients own hair completely to protect it, but we use a special technique to camouflage the braids, thus you see open hair starting from the root of the braid.
braids are a long process unless you are doing french braids i don't know any one who could do a full head of tiny indivduals braids in an hour or two no one hell even three or four or five dammit.
Babyrose is right! It also depends on the length of your customer's hair. We have lots of women with longer hair or very long hair who just want a total change of style. We often braid up to 12 hours when the braids are really tiny and the client's hair is very long.
I don't know any stores in Brasil, but the store in the US we order the hair from delivers world wide as far as I know. Just sent me an email and I will give you details.
Thanks for your nice comment! :) Please rate the video if you have not done so yet.
mann..i was thinkn the same thing...i was like cant these broads put some pep in they step..man..did you notice that it was dark out side when they finished?..hahahah..mann!!
I just posted my treebraids- both the individual, as well as the cornrow treebraids. Which state in the USA do you live? Merry Xmas to you all! December 2008.
i love how her hair looks, i want my hair like that but my problem is that i have shoulder length hair and i just want my hair braided about 3 inches and then leave the rest loose, but i keep seeing my real hair in between the curls . what can i do so that my real hair doesnt show in between the braids??
Well, most of our clients have longer or even very long hair. If you look closer at the video, you will see that Tanjas hair goes well below her shoulders as well. We use a spcial technique. You own hair is completely braided down, for protection and for better looks, but the braids are being camouflages by leaving braiding hair out of the braid early on. It's considerably more work that regular micros but it sure is worth the effort.
We call it Open Braids with camouflage technique. I don't think most braiders don't know it. We had to come up with something like that because most of our European customers have longer hair than Africans usually have and they did not want the "open hair" to start only after their own hair ends. Also Europeans don't want their scalp to show too much. There is just a different demand here. I hope you visit Germany and us some day :), I have been to Canada - its your turn now ;)
Oh my, you got it just right. You got what every braider I have visited here in Denmark don´t - understanding of a white girls needs ;). I hope to visit you some day. You seeme so nice, and the videoes ar allways filled with smiles and laughter.
Thanks! You are very nice yourself :). Yes, I totally understand your problem. "White" girls getting their hair braided African style is still relatively new...even though we do it for almost 30 years now here in Germany. That's how we learned to adapt the techniques.
It's a pleasure to answer your questions. I hope you visit our webpage. It is mostly in German (there is a English guide though), but we have literally hundreds of hair styles on there!
Thatäs why the technique is called Open Braids. Your own hair gets completely braided down, but you leave portions of the curly hair we use out so that the braids get camouflaged. That way you can achieve any look you like and with any color you like while your own hair is protected and invisible.
We use nail glue, the type that does not get hot or hard - take care to braid beyond your own hair and only then use a drop of glue. You should never try to seal braids made of human hair or the new thermofiber hair we are using in the video.
We use nail glue too. Some people don't want their synthetic single braids dipped into hot water. Others want short synthetic braids- in this case nail glue is perfect. Thank you so much for providing a great video. I just also wanted to add that for those of you that cannot go to Germany to get your hair done, we are a great hair braiding service right here in New Jersey, we do hair for all 50 states, appointments are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Best regards, Kaale.
Sounds great! I will let my friend know! She has the same hair style as in the video (got it done in our salon) and she has the hair available. Unfortunately she is not travelling to Germany often enough to get it done by us.
I am sure she will be thrilled...and thanks again! Thank you for having such a wonderful video and hair braiding service too! When you come to the US you can visit chez moi!
i am so mad because i went to the beauty store and bought some synthetic braiding hair called elements. it says 100% kanekalon toyokalon. and it is the deep twist. it looks exactly like the hair you use but when i tried seperating it strand by strand it would not part easily it just got all tangly and frizzy looking. so i couldnt use it. i dont know if it is the same hair you all use. i pland on taking it back for exchange tomorrow. i am so freakin upset!
What color is the package? What we use is Miss Willow French Bulk but I understand it was bought by Elements. Try treating it with body lotion (Nivea) before parting it. It can be tricky sometimes with those tight curls.
Can someone please tell me where i can find that type of hair! could i buy it any beauty store? i am desperate to know. I am going to start braiding my hair today!
We braid the extension down beyond the length of the clients hair and then seal the braid with a drop of a special glue that does not get hot and stays soft and undetectable.
It is a new type of synthetic hair that looks and feels like human hair. It can even be curled with a curling iron, or straightned, crimped...The general name for this type of hair is thermofiber.
The flat iron is used to straighten the braids. They tend to curl (because of the very curly braiding hair we used) and tangle with the hair. We find that the style last a lot longer if we do this.
We can braid in extensions with hair as short as 5 cm (about 2 inches) for straight hair, with kinky hair the hair can be even shorter. It is the same technique and actually less work, if you are a good braider because you don't have to braid down so far. The short the hair, the thinner you have to make the braids to avoid slippage. Anyhow, you wouldn't see much difference in a video of a short haired person.
Glad you are a fan of our work! We are planning on making CD. Some of our customers wear this style for 6 months, but in average it lasts 3 - 4 months.
It would be great if you would rate our videos and subscribe to our channel :). We will produce more videos for sure.
I don't understand what skin color has anything to do with getting your hair styled. We all want to look nice or feel like making a change once in a while - that is all that is to it.
You are right, braided extensions done right are the only method that does not damage the hair at all. We braid the extension down beyond the length of the clients hair and then seal the braid with a drop of a nail glue that does not get hot and stays soft and undetectable. We camouflage the braids so that the braids are barely visbible even for clients with longer hair.
We used a new type of snythetic hair of the type thermofiber. It looks just like human hair and be curled, straighened etc. and styled like human hair.
wat a cool video. can you braid normal hair like that without adding extensions to create more movement and individual curl... i agree with grrromit great camera work.
Thanks vhomesick! I guess you could braid just your own hair, but you would need to have very thick hair or it might look sparse. Also the braids could only be secured with an elastic thread or not at all to avoid damaging your own hair. Maybe Cornrows would be better? Or very little extension hair just to make it stay better?
De nada! If you like you can email me, I can send you advise on how to find a good salon, what hair to pick etc. Just go to the channel info of MagicStyleAtelier for our email address. I am crossing my fingers for you :)
how much it cost to do the individual braids??... Im very interested to get those but im mexican, and from a very little city and we don't have those kinds of salon's its been difficult.. and I want to know how much it cost?... I mean just in case i find some person that do the same or, almost the same work as you... thanks and sorry about my english ^^
The prices vary a lot from country to country and from salon to salon. We calculate the price by hothe size of the braids + the type of hair you want. The choice of hair is very important. You can use human hair or synthetic hair. Human hair is the most expensive hair, the higher the quality of the human hair, the more expensive it is. Some salons provide the hair, others expect you to buy it yourself. I can only guess that you might have to pay about US $100 hair not included.
sooo..these are basically individual tree braids. with just a "new" name.

i love how her hair looks, i want my hair like that but my problem is that i have shoulder length hair and i just want my hair braided about 3 inches and then leave the rest loose, but i keep seeing my real hair in between the curls . what can i do so that my real hair doesnt show in between the braids??
crislissa 3 years ago
Well, most of our clients have longer or even very long hair. If you look closer at the video, you will see that Tanjas hair goes well below her shoulders as well. We use a spcial technique. You own hair is completely braided down, for protection and for better looks, but the braids are being camouflages by leaving braiding hair out of the braid early on. It's considerably more work that regular micros but it sure is worth the effort.

that "special technique" are simple tree braids :)

Please come to Ottawa, Canada! we have nobody here! haha.
What's this method called?
vodkaflavoredlips 3 years ago
We call it Open Braids with camouflage technique. I don't think most braiders don't know it. We had to come up with something like that because most of our European customers have longer hair than Africans usually have and they did not want the "open hair" to start only after their own hair ends. Also Europeans don't want their scalp to show too much. There is just a different demand here. I hope you visit Germany and us some day :), I have been to Canada - its your turn now ;)

Oh my, you got it just right. You got what every braider I have visited here in Denmark don´t - understanding of a white girls needs ;). I hope to visit you some day. You seeme so nice, and the videoes ar allways filled with smiles and laughter.
synnepetersen 3 years ago
Thanks! You are very nice yourself :). Yes, I totally understand your problem. "White" girls getting their hair braided African style is still relatively new...even though we do it for almost 30 years now here in Germany. That's how we learned to adapt the techniques.
MagicStyleAtelier 3 years ago
Hi there. Thank you so much for all this wonderfull information you are giving out. The girl and the hair in the video are stunning.
I hope you will answer this question to; how many packs of hair did you use for her hair?
synnepetersen 3 years ago
About 3 and 1/2 packs of Miss Willow/Elements.
It's a pleasure to answer your questions. I hope you visit our webpage. It is mostly in German (there is a English guide though), but we have literally hundreds of hair styles on there!

beckybootz1221 3 years ago
Depends on how small you want the braids, between Euro 300 and 350.
MagicStyleAtelier 3 years ago
Between 300 and 350 Euros, depending on how small you want the braid. The hair (thermofiber) is included in the price.
MagicStyleAtelier 3 years ago
i don't get it, where did the unbraided hair come from when it looks like u were braiding the entire hair without loose ends???
confused???
parristar 3 years ago
Thatäs why the technique is called Open Braids. Your own hair gets completely braided down, but you leave portions of the curly hair we use out so that the braids get camouflaged. That way you can achieve any look you like and with any color you like while your own hair is protected and invisible.

i braid my own hair and i was wondering what glue do u use to seal the ends of the hair.. i always burn it but so much hair falls off after that...
18kesha18 3 years ago
We use nail glue, the type that does not get hot or hard - take care to braid beyond your own hair and only then use a drop of glue. You should never try to seal braids made of human hair or the new thermofiber hair we are using in the video.
MagicStyleAtelier 3 years ago
We use nail glue too. Some people don't want their synthetic single braids dipped into hot water. Others want short synthetic braids- in this case nail glue is perfect. Thank you so much for providing a great video. I just also wanted to add that for those of you that cannot go to Germany to get your hair done, we are a great hair braiding service right here in New Jersey, we do hair for all 50 states, appointments are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Best regards, Kaale.

You are welcome! I just checked out your website. Do you guys offer home service as well? I have friends in PA looking for a good braider.

Sounds great! I will let my friend know! She has the same hair style as in the video (got it done in our salon) and she has the hair available. Unfortunately she is not travelling to Germany often enough to get it done by us.

I am sure she will be thrilled...and thanks again! Thank you for having such a wonderful video and hair braiding service too! When you come to the US you can visit chez moi!

i am so mad because i went to the beauty store and bought some synthetic braiding hair called elements. it says 100% kanekalon toyokalon. and it is the deep twist. it looks exactly like the hair you use but when i tried seperating it strand by strand it would not part easily it just got all tangly and frizzy looking. so i couldnt use it. i dont know if it is the same hair you all use. i pland on taking it back for exchange tomorrow. i am so freakin upset!
stlblackbarbie 3 years ago
What color is the package? What we use is Miss Willow French Bulk but I understand it was bought by Elements. Try treating it with body lotion (Nivea) before parting it. It can be tricky sometimes with those tight curls.
MagicStyleAtelier 3 years ago
Can someone please tell me where i can find that type of hair! could i buy it any beauty store? i am desperate to know. I am going to start braiding my hair today!
stlblackbarbie 3 years ago
You can order online from ebonyline. Looks for Miss Willow/Elements. That's exactly the hair we use.

how many inches is the hair you bought in this video? ? 28 inches?

It's 20 inches folded, streched out it is 40 inches. But we shortened it, because Tanja wanted a shorter, layered look.

What did you use to seal the braid after you braided them, how did you keep them from coming loose?
Hoyejene 3 years ago
We braid the extension down beyond the length of the clients hair and then seal the braid with a drop of a special glue that does not get hot and stays soft and undetectable.
MagicStyleAtelier 3 years ago
what kind of hair was that
LightAsAFeather22 3 years ago
It is a new type of synthetic hair that looks and feels like human hair. It can even be curled with a curling iron, or straightned, crimped...The general name for this type of hair is thermofiber.
MagicStyleAtelier 3 years ago
in this vid are you using the flat iron to help seal the braid or was it to blend her hair with the hair added?
tysspace 3 years ago
Hi tysspace,
The flat iron is used to straighten the braids. They tend to curl (because of the very curly braiding hair we used) and tangle with the hair. We find that the style last a lot longer if we do this.
MagicStyleAtelier 3 years ago
I see videos for people with a good amount of hair, but what about people with short hair? I would like to know how to braid short hair.
a3dav 3 years ago
We can braid in extensions with hair as short as 5 cm (about 2 inches) for straight hair, with kinky hair the hair can be even shorter. It is the same technique and actually less work, if you are a good braider because you don't have to braid down so far. The short the hair, the thinner you have to make the braids to avoid slippage. Anyhow, you wouldn't see much difference in a video of a short haired person.

Hi purenheart,
Glad you are a fan of our work! We are planning on making CD. Some of our customers wear this style for 6 months, but in average it lasts 3 - 4 months.
It would be great if you would rate our videos and subscribe to our channel :). We will produce more videos for sure.

Hi Chickenfoot2001,
I don't understand what skin color has anything to do with getting your hair styled. We all want to look nice or feel like making a change once in a while - that is all that is to it.
MagicStyleAtelier 3 years ago
Great job. This technique is better than those fusion extensions and bonding solutions that can damage the hair.
How does the extension hair stay secure? Is it tied at the end?
OldskolFan 3 years ago
You are right, braided extensions done right are the only method that does not damage the hair at all. We braid the extension down beyond the length of the clients hair and then seal the braid with a drop of a nail glue that does not get hot and stays soft and undetectable. We camouflage the braids so that the braids are barely visbible even for clients with longer hair.
MagicStyleAtelier 3 years ago
It came out good. U did a great job. what kind of braiding hair iz that.
PprettyDaModel 4 years ago
Hi PprettyDaModel,
We used a new type of snythetic hair of the type thermofiber. It looks just like human hair and be curled, straighened etc. and styled like human hair.
MagicStyleAtelier 4 years ago
wat a cool video. can you braid normal hair like that without adding extensions to create more movement and individual curl... i agree with grrromit great camera work.
vhomesick 4 years ago
Thanks vhomesick! I guess you could braid just your own hair, but you would need to have very thick hair or it might look sparse. Also the braids could only be secured with an elastic thread or not at all to avoid damaging your own hair. Maybe Cornrows would be better? Or very little extension hair just to make it stay better?

how much it cost to do the individual braids??... Im very interested to get those but im mexican, and from a very little city and we don't have those kinds of salon's its been difficult.. and I want to know how much it cost?... I mean just in case i find some person that do the same or, almost the same work as you... thanks and sorry about my english ^^
prisybell 4 years ago
The prices vary a lot from country to country and from salon to salon. We calculate the price by hothe size of the braids + the type of hair you want. The choice of hair is very important. You can use human hair or synthetic hair. Human hair is the most expensive hair, the higher the quality of the human hair, the more expensive it is. Some salons provide the hair, others expect you to buy it yourself. I can only guess that you might have to pay about US $100 hair not included.
MagicStyleAtelier 4 years ago
No, it's simimlar to micros, but not quite the same. The braids are being camouflaged, because Tanja has rather long hair.
