i'm just doing my same ole WnGs n puffs... tryin to keep it simple... it's way to hot in Mis'sippi to try in do intricate styles when i know by mid summer i'll be showering twice a day! and twists and braids usually slip rite out when i wash too much
i'm more worried about this sun litening up my hair! I promise some of my ends are d*mn near blonde already! is there a leave in w/spf? or shud i even be worried about it?

This is a concern for me too. I hope someone has info. I don't want to go straw berry blond again this summer on my ends or rely on color totally.

i want yarn twists but i don't know if i can do them on myself (my sister's came out well). i also would like to try a sew-in again since i know how to care for my real hair underneath now.
if neither of those goes it will be twistouts, maybe a straw set or two, and more bunning, potentially on straightened hair if this sabino MB holds up.

I don't know, but I think I'm going to be heavy in the twist outs.
Y'all, I'm sure there is a leave-in with spf. I knew of one, but can't remember it now, but I bet there are several. Maybe you can start looking here:

I dabbled with a strawset recently to take a break from my braids and look cute for my 21st birthday. I really like it and it lasted about 3 weeks.
Its funny you posted this thread because I have definitely been wondering what I was going to do with my hair this summer. I have decided to stay on my personal growth mission and stay away from direct flat iron heat. (besides it's too hot outside to straighten my hair anyway)
Strawset one month, box braids, the next. and a few braidouts here and there when I feel lazy.

^^^tetbelle, your hair is so cool! i love the different textures (although i'm sure it prolly drives you nuts 
).
i am not happy with the shape of my hair since my cut.
erplexed so prolly no WnGs unless i put it in a puff. i think i will do more braid-outs, and perhaps if i can get my hair cornrowed up a few times.

My latest hair disaster has prompted me to revisit this question too!!
I will be braiding the front (I'll go in to get that done) and twisting the back.

I plan to wear twist-outs and mini twists. Right now I'm in a twist-out with a headband.

Today I'm in a rollerset, but it took all of my willpower to stay under that hot Pibbs last night.
Most of the summer I'll probably be wearing wash'n'gos and braidouts, but I want to get some senegalese twists for a while too. I'm tired of all this manipulation and I'm eager for my hair to get to the next length goal.

This week I'm wearing a puff. I plan to get a sew-in by weekend to give my hair a much needed break from manipulation.

wash n gos, puffs, buns, ponytails. I thought I'd be braiding my hair for the summer, but after thinking about how long it would take to wash and dry some braids...I thought against it. So I'm co-washing every/every other day until around...Sept/Oct. when the weather starts to cool down some. That's about 3/4 months so I should have a nice surprise when I decide to straighten it again.

Not completely natural, but transitioning from texlax. I'm going to try cornrows. If they're cute I'll get them redone every few weeks. I like the look of twists, but I also like to co-wash frequently (frizz) and I'm afraid of matting or dreading at the base. Individuals take FOREVER and then they were super heavy too.
If the cornrows don't work I'm just gonna bun it probably - it's too hot in AZ to mess with flat irons and what not!
For the ladies worried about the color change - I remember reading somewhere the coconut oil had some SPF properties...google it. I know there are SPF leave-ins but they tend to be kind of expensive.

Wash and goes mostly. By July my hair should be long enough for a ponytail so I'll be wearing that too...
