OMG @
LoveisYou I just realized that I totally misunderstood your question and answered it like a dumbass.
I'm so sorry for this so redundant post. I'm so embarrased. *

Fyne, why didn't y'all pull a girl aside and tell her that her slip was showing? What sort of friends are you? LOL

freckledface I now see why you were so confused. I'm terribly sorry. I am literally blushing purple.
1. How long is your hair?
BSB
2. How do you normally wear your hair? What style?
I live in twists and usually redo them one at a time. I treat them as hair and will put them up, leave them down, or do a single braid and wear a hat.
3. Do you have any problems retaining length?
Not that I've noticed. If I am not retaining length as well as I should it is probably because I don't moisturize or PS or seal my ends. But I'm not unhappy with my progress. BSB is the longest my hair has ever been in my life and this is with me doing very little to my hair.
4. How often do you go to the salon?
Before Feb 2007, the last time I had been at a salon was to get a touch up in 2001 (maybe May?). Then in Feb 2007, when I was at CBL, I made the mistake of trusting a stylist with my hair (I wanted to learn hands on how to shingle since I now had a good length I wanted to show off) and she chopped it off and left me with under 3 inches of hair. Needless to say, that was the end of me and salons. The braid extensions were all my own doing.
5. Do you find it hard to protective style without the aid of wigs, weave and braids?
Hmm...how to answer this? It's not hard because I live in twists so PSing would just be a matter of styling them in a way that ensures the ends are tucked away:
The truth is, I'm lazy. I just find it easier to not do anything.
I am one of those people who doesn't like to spend time doing hair. So once I put in twists/braids--which I usually do while distracted by something like a DVD movie, I don't take them out and because my hair is safe from tangling, I am very happy not to do anything at all. I just redo my braids/twists one at a time when I feel like it--usually while chilling watching TV. I can go for years w/o my hair being loose. Low manipulation really works well for lazy ol' me.
