How To Do Crochet Box Braids With Water Wave Hair

Box braids with water wave hair

Water wave hair is synthetic hair with a wavy texture, similar to hair styled with a water wave technique. It can be used to create box braids with a natural-looking wave pattern and is a good option if you want to add some volume and movement to your braids. It is important to note that synthetic hair is not the same as human hair, so it may have a different texture, look and feel and may not hold up as well to heat styling or other chemical treatments.


Crochet hair braids are a popular protective hairstyle that involves using a crochet hook to weave synthetic hair extensions into your hair. To crochet box braids with water wave hair, you will need the following:


  • Water wave crochet hair
  • A crochet hook
  • A rat tail comb
  • Hair clips
  • Hair gel or edge control (optional)

Here are the basic steps to crochet box braids with water-wave hair:


Water wave hair packs

  1. Start by sectioning your hair into small, square sections, using the rat tail comb and hair clips.
  2. Take one section of water wave crochet hair and fold it half to find the middle.
  3. Use the crochet hook to pull the folded end of the crochet hair through one of the sections of your hair near the scalp.
  4. Grab the two ends of the crochet hair and pull them through the loop that is now on the hook.
  5. Pull the ends of the crochet hair to tighten the loop and secure the crochet hair to your hair.
  6. Repeat steps 3-5 until the entire section of your hair is covered.
  7. Repeat the method for the rest of your hair sections.
  8. Once done, you can use hair gel or edge control to smooth down any flyaways or to style your edges.

The number of packs of hair needed for box braids will depend on several factors, including the size of the braids, the desired fullness, and the braids' length. Typically, you will need 4-6 packs of hair for a full head of medium box braids that reach your shoulder. You will likely need more hair if you want longer or larger braids. You may need less hair if you wish for smaller or less complete braids. It's always best to buy an extra pack of hair, just in case you need more.
