Let me know which one you got and how it works I wrote you in the other thread I bought Parnevu T-Tree Braid Spray. It does feel good going on. I don't know how well it does yet. :)

I'd like to know other sprays out there, I couldn't find the recommeneded spray another member let me know about, so I went on a whim :ohwell:

I've seen a few posts where ladies comment on the BRX spray and it seems like it works pretty well for them. Never hurts to try...plus I'm a slight PJ anyway :yep:
 
Sorry I had to drop out of this challenge:sad:, I dont know how to hide my hair, took the sew-in down after 24 hrs:nono:

Good luck to you ladies...I will watch from the sidelines though

Well when I am done with this one if I don't buy it again I will try the BRX spray.

Yeah, I am getting far out of PJ mode, I don't want a collection anymore. I am doing pretty well using things up. I have quite a long ways to go! HUH!

I'm gonna cowash when I get home and spray my braids DOWN! :lachen:
Hopefully it works and feels oh so delicious. The braids can be picked up about 1/8 of an inch now.

NikkiQ is right, Ijanei.
there are far too many ps styles for you to leave only because that one style didn't hit it.
i understand your frustration, though, and am sad that that particular style wasn't right for you.:sad:

please consult some other options and give your hair the chance it can still have to simply grow in peace and protection.:yep:

:sad: I tried but I only can pin it up for so long though, I want something so that I wont have to touch my hair at all but it's a habit I guess.

Here's a few pics of my first self done box braids before my camera died I think I did pretty well for my first time
the front http://images5b.snapfish.com/232323232fp63269>nu=6699>87;>25:>WSNRCG=32:9:;68:634;nu0mrj

the general look from the side (It looks like there are spaces but its because I used a 1b/33 mix I believe and the under braids were kinda big :perplexed: ) http://images5a.snapfish.com/232323232fp63395>nu=6699>87;>25:>WSNRCG=32:9:;68:934;nu0mrj

You did a good job on your first attempt!:yep: How long did it take you?
 
May I join? I guess you can call me a "professional hair hider" I wear a lace front wig and have worn a lace front wig for more then a year now; I intend to wear lace front wigs for at least another year. In fact I have friends who have never seen my hair and thinks this wig is my hair (LOL oh well). It's been great too, I BC'ed last year and at the time of my BC my hair was 1 inch long, now it's shoulder length. I'm going to try for APL before I stop wearing my wigs. Anyway, I wash once a week or more frequently when I have time; I wash with Aritha soap, then use Aruvedic powders for 30 min, then DC with AO HSR and Dr. Miracle DC pack, then do two strand twists or cornrows coated/saturated with EVOO or Castor Oil; started using MT a few weeks ago and waiting for my steamer to arrive.

I'll take pictures next week but please bear with me b/c I may not know how to upload them.

thanks
 
so excited. i have been inadvertently hiding my hair since mid May. Do tightly curled flexi rod styles count?

Also anyone have rec's on BSS wig brands that don't have that extra shiny/plastic look? LF and half-wigs I wanna do, but the last synthetic LF I had looked way too shiny and matted up really quick.

I wear the Sensational LF wigs, MYA is yaky and looks natural, I'm wearing the Venessa LF wig which is not as yaky but I really like it.
 
I've been ps'ing this week with the attached style. It's time to untwist and wear my twist-out, I'm excited!!!

A little rest and variety will help for sure. Just keep the hair underneath healthy and maintained.

I sprayed my hair last night with braid spray, while it is in my beehive braid, I will moisturize with my Parnevu T-Tree braid spray every night/to every other night and use my sulphur mix every few days. It smells; but the braid spray over powers the sulphur thank goodness.

I can't wait to try my dry shampoo next weekend.

I am enjoying the ease of the get up and go hair styles :)
Hmmmmm , that is why I loved the phony pony life, just ease. Other than a Doobie I have never been one to play in my hair :(
 
hey hey ladies :)
Today is the challenge start date! Yeah :). I have flat twist in wanting to do a twist out but since i am not going anywhere today ( no that i think off anyway) i am just going to keep them in and only unravel in the eventually of me going outside :).
HHJ to all.
PS: this transition is going smooooooooooth ... Just need to get ride of those 2 relaxers boxes I have in this house!

I think the point is to hide your length. I am not able to do weaves/extensions/wigs either. I'm still going to give it a try. I'm going to do buns, and french braids and twist out/braid out afro puffs.

I don't know if I can make it either, but we should give it a try. A month of hiding your hair will still do some good!
