Can you do braid in hair extensions by yourself?

I have thin straight hair, why can't I twist braid my hair, then sew in the extensions?

• It is very hard for me to braid my fine hair in the back and I do not want to add synthetic hair to the braid. I would think a good firm twist braid and close small stitches should work well. What do you do it your selfers think?

• Answer:

  i have thin straight hair and i have to tell you if you are african american you should wash your hair and then let it air dry. air drying it will allow the hair to fluff out a bit and make the twist braid more stable. personally i add the synthetic hair but you can buy human air for braiding to add instead. i think a firm braid with thread will make your hair too susceptible to breakage. good luck
