BRAID-OUTS... How Often (???)

[Poohbear]

How often do you do braidouts? daily? weekly? certain months? other?

Does anyone do them consistently?

If so, how often do you wash your hair?

And is it okay to re-braid your hair each night?

i used to do braidouts and twist outs every 3 days over the summer. i would wash my hair every 3 days and start fresh on wet hair. once i stretched my braid out to 5 days, which is a record for me. now that its colder, i only do them on thursday nites and wash it out on my wash day sunday.

the only way i could maintain my braidout was to re-braid it every nite and lightly spray it every few days with set lotion or mousse.

I do twistouts- because they are faster for me to undue- I wear mine everyday. I retwist everynight, and I conditioner wash once a week. During the summer I washed at least every 3 days.

Hey MeccaMedinah, I think I'm gonna alternate between braid-outs and twist-outs. I just haven't tried twist-outs yet. When I get some perm rods, I'm gonna try them. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
