How to Create a Seamless Crochet Front (No Knots Showing)
The key to this style is feeding human hair directly into the front cornrows instead of crocheting at the hairline.
Step 1 – Prep the Human Hair for the Front
-
Take a few strands of loose deep wave hair
-
Cut them in half at the middle thread
-
The thread is secure, so no shedding occurs
This allows the front to look like a lace front or traditional sew-in, not crochet.
Step 2 – Cornrow the Front with Human Hair
-
Create 14 straight-back cornrows (7 on each side)
-
Start each cornrow with braiding hair
-
Feed in 4–5 half strands of human hair per cornrow
-
Braid straight back
This technique:
-
Eliminates visible crochet knots
-
Creates a natural hairline
-
Gives fullness without bulk
Step 3 – Secure the Last Cornrow
-
Use a latch hook to link the final braid
-
Sewing is optional (not required)
Apply scalp oil once the braid foundation is complete to keep the scalp moisturized and protected.
Crochet the Rest of the Hair (The Right Way)
Once the front is complete, crochet the remaining hair across the head.
Correct Crochet Technique (Very Important)
-
Always create the crochet loop using the center thread
-
Crochet on the surface of the cornrow, not underneath
-
Avoid grabbing too much of the cornrow (thick grabs = slipping hair)
✅ Proper installation ensures:
-
No sliding
-
No clumps coming out
-
Long-lasting wear—even with washing and brushing
Installation Time & Hair Breakdown
-
Total install time: ~2 hours
-
Hair usage:
