How have you been wearing your hair daily?

There is a Crown and Edges Challenge. It has alot of good information. I'll see if I can find that thread and bump it/post it in here.

I've worn a wash and go with headbands. Now that I think of it could it be the headbands are pulling too much ?

stop pulling your hair back with headbands....many people have finer edges that the rest of their hair. please be sure when you get more length not to bun alot either wet or dry cause the same thing will occur.

If you must use headbands just be sure they are silk or satin. Any other fabric will chew up your edges.

The first thing I noticed is that puff in your avi. Pulling those edges back constantly takes a toll.

Many of us cannot handle anything tampering with our edges. I am one. I cannot do bands or pulling my hair back. If I pull it back I have to make sure there is no tension or I will be in serious trouble.
