In a curly wet bun today...did a WnG yesterday and fell asleep on the couch so needed to rewet and refresh and put it in a bun. Will stay in a curly bun at least through Thursday. Next week if my sister can't rollerset my hair I am going to attempt some medium sized twists that I can then pin up.

I put my hair into medium twists this week. I tried making an emulsified butter (kind of a bust) but I'm going to use it to seal my ends. I haven't tried butters since I first stated my journey but I thought I'd try again.

I'm going to keep the twists in a bun, top knot or french braid to keep my ends hidden.

Will add pics later.

I'm nearing the end of week two for my twist. They are getting pretty fuzzy at the roots, will probably rock a twist out Saturday and then wash and re-twist Sunday.

Today I'm wearing a low ponytail, allowing the ends to fall over one shoulder (so I can keep an eye on them).

I'm also into my second week with my twists. I already washed and dc'd yesterday so I will start retwisting sometime today.

I'm thinking about switching to twists at 6 weeks but I wont be able to wet them like I do these braids. I will have to see how long it takes me to get these out if I go ahead and refresh at 6 weeks vs 12.

4 days later I'm not done untwisting! :pullhair: the plan was to redo each section as I unraveled but after the 1st section I took out, I took a break that lasted 3 days :look: so I've decided to just undo the entire thing and bun my hair. This tew much!
 
I took out my twists, remoisturized, added a glycerin moisturizer and TGIN daily moisturizer. I put some butter on my ends and retwisted towards my crown. When I'm feeling lazy that it my go to style. I will definitely wash next weekend to give my scalp some much needed moisture.
 
I've been taking my braids out for the last 3 days and I've only did 1/4, lol. Hopefully Saturday I can get them all out because I have an appointment for a hair style on sunday.

Ive had these braids in 5 weeks today. I'll be out this challenge 8 weeks and then back in after I take this style out.
 
Wore my twist for two weeks. I took them down today and am deep conditioning now. It's pretty late so I will probably put it back up tomorrow. Not sure how I'm styling. But I'm going to try for another 2 weeks. Then it will be time to dust my ends and do a rollerset.
 
Been about the bun life since the beginning of the year. Only time not in a bun is typically Sunday for church. Today I am getting a rollerset and will wear out for church tomorrow and back to the bun Monday.
