Pretty difficult! But I would say rollersetting and wearing that for 3 days then twisting your rollerset and wearing that for 3 days next take the twist out and wear that 2 or 3 days and finally curly-froing or puffing it out or frohawking it--that might take you through a few days. But honestly, even when I was relaxed, I washed and restyled my hair every week, sometimes every 3 days. Good luck!

Yea I was going to suggest pixies or some type of cornrows if you're looking not to comb your hair for a while.

I twist & wear my twists in various styles (ponytailed, french rolled, 1/2 up's, bunned, or just left alone) for up to 10 days then I wear a twist out for 3 or more days.

Mini twists I know of one girl I especially love on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/user/KinkyKurlyQueen#p/u/3/6NRTCLZ3Plg she's really good at tiny twists on her natural hair and they last her up to a month

definitely what others have said about wearing twists in styles. i would do buns and updos. i absolutely cannot wait until my hair is long enough to do this:

I'm still looking for something that works 2 weeks for my hair as well. Lately I've been doing flat twist into an updo with double strand twist and the ends curled. But this style gets really, really frizzy after about 5 days. Not terrible, but to me it needs to be done again. I'm experimenting with different stylists (I've never done my own hair relaxed or natural because I just know nothing about hair) to see who's technique will keep my hair secure longer. I like the lady I just went to last, but I have another appoinntment next week with another lady.

When I was natural I use to twist my hair in small or medium twist and they would last for up to a month. I found the the tighter I wound it, the better. I used shea butter AND I was even able to wash it in the twist as well. I would wear it down, in a bun, half up in a barrette...you get the idea. When I was tired of it or when it started to get a bit frizzy, I would wash it and then do a twist out. Making it over a month of me not having to comb my hair.

I hate to be repetitive, but...

Twists...?

I usually can wear the twists themselves for a week or two and then a twist out for a week. Right now I'm doing twists in a bun like in my siggie.

There are a lot of options out there for low maintenance.
