00:00Okay, so I went down a rabbit hole looking for crochet braids that actually look good and don't
00:04wreck your budget, and I walked away with five options, all under $6.83. Not five bucks each,
00:11under $6.83. So if you've been putting off that protective style because everything decent costs
00:16a fortune, stay with me, because this list is about to save you a lot of money. First up,
00:22the Oli Baby 12-inch Synthetic Afro Kinky Curly, that little spring twist texture is the whole
00:27reason to buy it. It gives you that soft, natural, freshly done look without the crunch,
00:32and it blends beautifully with real hair. $4.46, almost 5,000 sold, 4.6 stars.
00:40If you want a short, easy, low-maintenance style you can install in an afternoon, this is the one.
00:46Next, this 24-inch Synthetic Long Straight Box Jumbo Braid 624, and honestly the price is the
00:52least impressive thing about it. It's soft, it's lightweight, so it doesn't drag on your scalp all
00:58day, and those rainbow color options are gorgeous. 4.9 stars from over 4,000 buyers.
01:05If you want long, sleek, statement braids, this is the best-rated pick on the list.
01:10Third one is the Steel, the Synthetic Kinecolin Pre-Stretched Curly Jumbo Braid at $3.62.
01:17Pre-stretched means way less time prepping and separating hair, which is the part everybody hates.
01:234.7 stars, over 3,700 sold. If you're braiding on a budget or doing a whole head of jumbo
01:30braids,
01:31buy this one in bulk. Fourth, the 10-inch Goddess Box Braids with the Curl Ends, 566.
01:38Those loose curly ends are everything, they give you that boho, effortlessly cute finish instead of
01:43blunt, stiff braid tips. It's a lower rating at 4.3, but the people who love it really love it.
01:49If you want a shorter boho look, this is worth a shot.
01:53Fifth, the 24-inch Long Straight Colorful Jumbo Twist, 584.
01:58It's the same idea as the straight braid but with the twist texture and even bolder color range,
02:03and it's sitting at 4.9 stars. Under 2,000 sold, so it's less discovered. Soft, lightweight, and the
02:11colors pop. If you like a twist over a braid, grab this one. So that's 5 solid options, every single
02:19one under $6.83. All the links are in the description below, so go check them out and
