Finally a successful braidout..

[Qtee]

...I'm super excited and just had to share..I had been trying to do twist outs and braidouts with no success for a couple of years and thought they were just not for me..so I have been sticking with my wash n gos..well I've been sick twice this month and figured the wet head in the morning no longer an option..so Saturday night ..I dampened my hair with my leave in and added eco styler to each braid (7 braids in all)..I did this on a 3 day old wash n go..and I luvd the result..so every night I have been repeating the process and every morning I oil the braids down before I unbraid..I just smooth my edges and add a headband or knee high tie..This is now my winter staple..

YAY!! Don't you just love these little victories?!!

I think your hair really looks beautiful! GOOD JOB!

 

[Qtee]

Yeah..if it wasnt for me getting sick..I may have given up on braids out all together..I'm happy I didnt..

Great results! I would love to perfect my braidouts as well. I think I will need more length in my front to be truly happy with the results of both my braid/twist outs.

 

[Qtee]

I still cant get a good twist out..but its ok..I'll take what I can get..and yeah it may be the length that was a key factor..

Beautiful!!

What leave-in did you use and which Ecostyler gel (was it the olive oil one). Thanks in advance

 

[Qtee]

I use a mixture of olive oil, conditioner and water..its thick and creamy when I mix it up..and the eco styler is the one with the olive oil...
