Natural Hair Turban Style! : QUICK NATURAL HAIR STYLE

[TheChipidoo]

omg you look like beyonce on those 1st couple of pics.

[AGFashionAcademy]

This is so cute!

Im 15 and Im gonna wear this to school (:

[MissRandi101]

@20britty tease the hair underneath or roller set it/french braid it the night before and brush it out to give it some volume. Your bangs would be cute pinned back, making a cute hump in the front. :)

[20britty]

Is there a way to wear this style turban without curly hair? I have straight hair :-(

But I LOVE this look. Can I still wear it? How would I poof the scarf up? Or pull my bangs out? If anyone knows, I'd really appreciate a response. :-D

[bossin88]

Great video Mae! I subbed and will also be trying this. Thanks! :)

[MizzTx92]

what can you use to keep the scarf from sliding up or back?

[GetOffMyTwittur]

This is sooooo cute :)

[MissesTKay]

I adore this look! You are gorgeous and very helpful.

[5boyzz]

Hi Nikkimae, your turban style is so cute on you however, every time I try it, I end up looking. like Aunt Jaimama or Tupac Shakur! What am I doing wrong?

[semt9]

Helloooo new winter style ^^

[MsPrissyFace]

I love this look!!

I did this look for my new video!

Amazing Inspiration!!!

[DemonVonKitchenSink]

Looks vintage almost.

[penatibusx]

I love Afro-American people.

[vikki12307]

@penatibusx ¬¬ what about Afro-English people?!

[MsPrissyFace]

Amazing protective style!

[mingligoode12]

very cute, and yes i love this look on you.

[Chinyerejo]

I loved the way that you showed us how to put on and tie the turban on your hair. It looked simple and even alittle fun to do. I think that I will try it myself as a different look for my natural hair. Thanks:-)

[neufisthename]

<3 it!!! even though i am not of african descent and therefor do not have black hair i will definately rock this. thanks for the tip

[foreveralways7]

Your turban looks fabulous!! Thank you so much for the tutorial!

Now I'm going to try this on my straight, white girl hair.lol. Wish me luck!! :D

Xoxo, AM

[MsMicheb]

wowwww your hair grew, lol i don't know you personally but i remember watching a video of you a few months ago when you did the big chop.

[Kiwistardust]

Absolutely lovely :D

[TheMintqueen]

that is so cute =D



[beneathyourlove]

Am I the only one here without an afro?

Im Latina and my hair is straight, should I still do this? Would this still be acceptable? Or would it just look weird on me?

It looks really cool and effortless to do. And its summer so its a great way to rock a turban and a cute flwy outfit/dress.

[prettyshamarlee]

@beneathyourlove Lots of women with straight hair are rocking this style right now. Look up Nicole Richie or Kourtney Kardashion to get started. Also don't forget Rosie the Rivioter who also wore a turban like style.

[beneathyourlove]

@prettyshamarlee

Thank you so much!

I'll definitely be wearing this look more often!

But do you know any cheap stores that sell scarves like the ones she's using?

[Caysizzlin]

Amazing! can't wait for my hair to get to that length so i can do the turban style. Thanks Mae, you're the best!

[weightwatchersgirl]

love your hair, love your videos, love it all! yay! :) you give me lots of hairspiration and courage to move forward.

[Jones121492]

[TheTinyDreamer]

[TheBestMusicChannel8]

Wow your hair has come so far. Sad Mine is the same length but with my extremely coiled texture it shrinks to a twa. :,o(

Love the look btw. I'll by stretching to get this look soon.

[LadyObjection]

@jopmaseh Wow, could you at least tried to not sound like a straight up and down hater. Your comments just scream " gawd, i frigging hate myself! but i hate people who are happy,and confident in there own skin even MOAR!!!1111!!1". please keep your self loating to yourself.

[angelbabygabriel]

u know what girlie i really love your videos. i big chopped about a month ago and its hard to find styles with a twa. alot of times i just wanna give in and get some braids but when i look at your videos(older ones) you give me courage to hang in there. alot of people that make these videos just skip their twa phase. but you wore your twa proudly. you found out how to take care of your hair and ive actually used alot of the products you have. thanks thanks thanks for inspiring me!!!

[CraziboutJewelry]

This is neat. You have such a bubbly personality that's awesome!

[kristilyzed]

love it!

[SunShon07]

[jensinetosine]

with summer right next door ... maybe you could give us more OOTDs ... i have always loved your style and wanted to know where you get those chic outfits you wear to events and shows.

[ItsyBitsyChelly]

I've been wanting to do this for ages! Thanks so much!

[LaLaSayz76]

Thanks for sharing! I am sooo going to do this soon. A great spring/summertime style!

[jmomma2003]

thank you, i always wondered how that was done, lol...are you able to demonstrate how to tie a scarf so it looks as if there is a chignon sitting at your nape???

[NaturallyFierceOne]

Hi Mae! I was wondering if you could give me some advice on boosting my channel? You inspire me and I felt I could ask. Thanks in advance!

[sweeternadiah]

this is so very cute! thanks for sharing!

[BumblebeesNhoney]

Sweet! Thank you so much for being so specific! This is my answer to hair resulting from days old twist-outs! I'll be trying this out ASAP! It's also good to know that you have a twitter, I really enjoy your tricks and tips.

[BargainClipper]

This is really cute! I enjoy wearing a scarf on my natural hair especially when I'm having a "bad hair day". Now, I can wear this style any day! Thanks for sharing the technique that you learned and it was great that you asked for help.

[sunnysideup374]

[TheCurlyFitChic]

Another reason for me to cut bangs in my hair! Thank you for posting this video.

[psychd]

this look is so cute! if i try this on my length hair, i will have to do a high ponytail or top knot to make it work, but i think it will work!

[cynnimon]

You make it look so easy. Can't wait to try this tomorrow!

[evancamille]

I tried this yesterday for a party. it was so cute and trendy + everyone liked it!

[LuvitHeart]

So very pretty Nikkimae!!! Thank you Sweetness {:-)...

[flawedbeautyy]

I was doin this method all those years ago and didn't know it! Lol :D Looks great on you.

To help your hair lay down before you turban it, you could probably bobby pin it into place.

[: thanks for postin this vid

[poopaslady]

[MyJayjay92]

yay something to try on a bad hair day

[mzphillygurl]

Mae, what is the width of the scarf? I know you said the length was about 4 to 5 feet. I want to buy some fabric and make some.

[djsugah]

[michellethedivine]

Thanks!



[Meisha622]

[Mrsdevsgirl]

very cute....

[Divalicious22able]

Glad you did this video! I always wondered how they wore those. Love the African look!

[TheBaca89]

Nikkimae you look super cute! Tip: when wearing head scarves, cover your hair with a satin scarf first to protect it then you can use whatever material you want. and if you have a TWA and want volume, layer and use more than one scarf

[potterylady1]

This is cute lol. Now I know what I can do with all the scarfs I have lol.

[anitawade1]

Awwwww i love Poor Little Rich Girl. I used to frequent their shop as well as By The Pound (r.i.p. lol) when I lived on Atlanta.

[erikawyatt]

This is such a creative idea!

[ahamilton330]

I'm not allowed to wear head scarves where I work. Can you do a tutorial on quick hairdo's for the work atmosphere when you are having a bad hair day?

[louloumatou]

looks super gorgeous, gotta try it!!

[chasaty379]

You are gorgeous. Beautiful voice. Great technique. I did it and love it.

[zheahra]

Hey, Cutie Pie, This style is too gosh darn cute. You did and excellent job creating the turban look. Loving your hair fluffed and full in the front.

[genejaytre]

I like this video. when you go to the fabric store what type of fabric do you get?

[obiwashere]

you are so beautiful. God bless your parents

[chimjim89]

i honestly thought it was going to be super complicated. nice and easy.

[Napps83]

OMG!!!! My momma used to tie my hair up like this when I was younger after she rolled my hair up in sponge rollers!!!! Girl, she had tons of rollers in my head!!!LOL!!! This is another reason I love being natural because we can style our hair any way we want. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FenomenalFemme84]

HEY! So I don't know if you have this problem but my hair does NOT hold a style... by the end of the day it swells to a puffy mess! How do I keep my twist outs defined so I can have "second day hair"? I've tried holding curls... and it might last most of the day... but def not good for second day. Does that make sense? Help ... if you can... Please!

[shealuving]

u shld really do an OOTD vid for this...btw really cute look!!

[Chrissy4281]

Thanks for this video. I've been wearing scarves on days that I'm not ready to wash my hair, yet it does not need to be completely out. Lol. You've given me a great new style. Love the buying your own fabric tip
