Re: Braid Challengers...READY, SET...LET\'S BEGIN!!!
I got kinky twist in my hair Saturday March 6, and I can not believe the growth I gotten so far! I'm really amazed. Most of the growth is in the top and middle of my head, my hair tends to grow faster there, but never this fast, in some places I have 1/2 inch of growth. I'm sure it's not braid slippage because my twist only slip around the edges from pulling it into ponytales. I've avoided ponytails this time because of breakage I got around the sides the last time. Mind you, my sides are not growing as fast as the top and middle of my head but I am seriously impressed with the results. I figure the rest will catch up.
What have I been doing: I surge my scalp once or twice a day, after every surge I apply a moisturizing braid spray and hair oil to the scalp. So far I've only washed once and intend to only wash my hair once per week. Too much washing will cause the twist to look frizzy and old to quickly (my goal is 3 months w/one toch up), but I know I must remove the build up from all the surging and braid spray - so once per week should do it.
