3 MONTH BAGGY CHALLENGE

I am in definately.
Will do the whole head 5-7 days a week at night. I am taking my weave out on the 11th of May. Then I will continue by doing the baggy whole head but concentrating on my ends.

Can't wait to get the same progress like you.
 
More info: I wanted to know exactly how do you protect your ends. How do you put oil on your ends. Sounds easy enough but I am natural and my hair is not long, its not like I can bring my hair around and put oil on it. I have to what? Part my hair and take sections at a time and then oil them? What I have been doing: I use moisturizers like Curls whipcream or milkshake or just moisturizer and then I put the cap on I don't put oil on the ends. I did today I put castor oil on but I am so confused about the ends part. The day you posted your picture and I spoke to you-- was the day I started bagging. For Real. My hair has thicken up dramatically. When I get out of the shower my hair hangs down usually. Since I started the baggie I have this huge fro going on. I have to comb it for it to lay down. I actually had to stop and ask what is going on with my hair its much thicker then it usually is. I put a plastic cap the kind you condition with and I put a Satin bonnet on top the kind with a band around it and Its great no problems I forget that I have the plastic cap underneath. My hair is so easy to manage in the morning. I also condition wash every day but since I started the baggie I have cut back, no need. GREAT CHALLENGE I am really Fired up about it. I think its an added perfect thing for naturals.
 
I'm wondering if I should be adding protein as well to my hair before baggying. I don't want to over moisturized. My hair does well with a balance of protein and mositure. I am thinking about maybe also putting a dime size of the Original MNT on my hair along with the USC before putting on the plastic cap.

What's your thoughts ladies?

Baggying wont make your hair over moisturized, it will keep your hair from eaisly loosing the moisture it has and getting dry. If you put tons of stuff on it then its a problem. I hae been baggying for a year and I haven't had to change the amount of protien I use on my hair

ONCE YOUR UP IN THE MORN YOU CAN TAKE IT OFF AND COVER WITH A SATIN SCARF. THIS IS WHAT I DO TO HELP ME SMOOTH OUT THE HAIR AND DRY IT, SO I DONT HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE DOOR WITH WET HAIR.
OR YOU CAN ALSO TRY TAKING IT OFF AT LIKE 4AM, SET YOUR ALARM CLOCK AND TAKE IT OFF THEN SO THAT WHEN YOU WAKE UP AGAIN YOUR HAIR IS COMPLETELY DRY:)

Thanks, that makes a lot of sense. So, to be clear, I would wrap my hair as I normally would, add a bit of moisturizer and oil and put a plastic cap on it with a satin scarf on top. Then, in the morning I would remove the plastic cap and replace the scarf, wait a while, and comb down my wrap after it's dry. Am I getting this?
 
I'm in. I've been doing this since I got braids. I spray my braids with diluted conditioner and put a plastic bag on my head for about an hour before work. I then lightly spray them with oil sheen. The braids feel moist and not dry. I will do this 5-7 days a week.

Thanks girl, that helps a lot!
 
Sounds like fun! I am doing the C&G method now so I don't think I can do this challenge!:(

Good Luck ladies!
 
Im in! Whole head baggy for 6-7 nights. Just permanent colored my permed hair on impulse. Lord knows I will need the moisture.
 
Count me in! I will either do a whole head baggy or my ends 4x a week it depends on how I'll be wearing my hair.
 
I'm in...

I haven't stayed on the wagon with too many challenges this year, but this is something I already do. I'll baggy my whole head 4 nights out of the week, and I'll wear my hair down on weekends only. This works perfectly because I workout for 4 days out of the week, so keeping my hair protected with be even better!

Thanks Darkempress!
 
Previously I was baggying my ends as I'm wearing a phony pony, but now influenced by DE's progress I am ALSO baggy my whole head EVERYNIGHT (except wash nights as I airdry)... so this challenge is perfect for me. My hair seems loads more fuller from it... cant wait to see the effects in 3 months :D
 
Count me in! This will give me a chance to perfect a baggy method. I have no idea what I will do or use so give me a day or two!

YUP YOU GOT IT:D . BUT I USUALLY DONT WRAP MY HAIR, B/C IT CAN THIN THE HAIR OUT. SO YOU CAN TRY SOME NIGHT TO DO A BRAID TO LAY OFF OF ALL THAT WRAPPING:)
 
I'm in and I started last night. I'll try 5 - 7 nights per week. I do have a question.........What do you do with your hair under the plastic cap? I had mine smoothed down and pulled back in a pony with a flexirod on the ends. What are others doing with the hair underneath? Are you just leaving it hanging straight back and are you still tucking the ends under? How is your hair styled underneath the plastic cap? Thanks!

Since I have twist in the front, I have the back braided and either tuck the ends or gather the braids make one big braid and then use one of my ouchless to hold it together, not at the end but above where my ends are. At night I take the ouchless out and just moisturize and seal my hair. I am all about babying my ends
 
I'm DEFINITELY in. I started this either Sunday or Monday night and the results are phenomenal. Anyway, i will be baggying my whole head every night except for the nights that i just washed my hair. As of now i use S-curl and proclaim oil. Does anyone here use any indian oils like vatika coconut, dabur jasmine, dabur amla or any others to seal in for their baggie at night?
 
Can this work to maintain rollersets? Has anyone successfully baggied their whole head with pincurls underneath and no frizz?
 
I am in, I am in. Ladies, check out my fotki for an alternative baggy method! I think this will help me with my homestretch to Bra-Strap.

IT CAN WORK WITH THE PINCURLS, BUT I CANT GUARANTEE THAT THERE WILL BE NO FRIZZ AT ALL. MAYBE JUST A TINY BIT, NOT MUCH
 
I wanna be in on this too.

I am rotating between half wigs and phony ponies.

On my half wig day I cornrow my hair and put on a baggy and then my wig cap and then my wig.

With the phony pony I will just baggy my ends:D
 
Count me in!! I will start tonight and I am doing the whole head!:lol: I think I could commit to at least 5 nights each week.

Thank you Darkempress. :scratchch I guess I'll have to experiment.
 
I'm in.. I think this will work perfectly with my hide your hair challenge. I can even baggie when I wear my clip-in weave. I'll just take out the clip in pieces and baggie my head at night.

I'll try baggying 5 nights per week, whole head.


Darkempress:
How do you wear your hair in the day??

I've been baggying my whole head at night with pin curls. I use a little moistuizer and oil and a little serum and I have little to no frizz.
