Two hairstylists show LaToya Kelly how to braid short, thinning hair by adding braiding hair to thin sections, using edge control for clean parts, then sewing a cap and bundle onto the back braid for hold. The dome cap method reinforces the style on very short hair.

First of all, I want to say thank you to this client for letting me record. If it weren't for clients like this that let me record, other clients wouldn't know what's possible. They think they're the only ones with this type of hair loss, and they're not, and there is hope. So thank you for letting me record. I honestly did not know what I was going to do, how I was going to braid it, but all it really took was adding braiding hair on sections that were thinner or shorter and then to make your parts nice and clean, using edge control to keep them separated while you're braiding. So that was what made this all possible, and of course being able to braid shorter or thinner hair.
I'm not gonna lie, once I got to this part, it was pretty hard to grip, but as you see, we were able to get through it. Her hair is fully braided, and she was able to achieve a middle part, which she did not expect. Me to be able to do. So we are doing the dome cap method on her. If you're not familiar, check out the website, TTdoesitall.ai.
So the goal here with sewing down the cap to that back braid and also sewing the bundle onto the back braid. Hopefully it will reinforce it since it's so short. Okay. But I mean, it's basically like sewing a loop around a braid in twice with the cap and a bundle. So hopefully that keeps it in because it's super short. Okay. This should give it a good hold.
So she brought her own bundles with her, but she did need a closure, so I will use my deep wave lace closure to go with it. And she's good to go. You guys, let me know how you think I did. Of course, no adhesive is used in these dome cap methods, and it is laying flat. You can't see— no one would know what was underneath. So drop a comment, let me know what you think. How did I do?
