pre_medicalrulz I really wanted to do box braids too but opted for jumbo twists instead. Box braids take me forever to do!

On my last week of my 9 week kinky twists. These suckas come out Saturday. Ah, to wash my head under a full stream of water. I cannot wait!
I have a busy weekend so I hope I have time to take them out on Saturday and then style for Church on Sunday.

Still in my twists and LOVING the low maintenance action I'm getting; I could keep these for two months and be happy, BUT I'm forcing myself to take them out this weekend, for the health of my hair (I could use a normal wash and dc session....and remove all the shed hair:-/ )
It will be five weeks that I've had them on Wednesday. Time fliiiies, dude.

Just took down my sew in and now I remember all the reasons I started wearing wigs I had a little matting...I plan to trim and wear my hair out for a week or two until I get the urge to wig it or braids

I can already tell that taking down my five week old senegalese twists tomorrow is going to be a b**tch on my 15 week post hair -__- I'm definitely nervous about it. Thinking about doing a corrective relaxer on some underprocessed parts. I know thats not best practice, but oh well. 
After the take down, I guess its back to wigs.

Got new marleys last Sunday, been in for a week. Plan on keeping these until the end of the month then moving on to box braids.

Started wearing my wig. I love it. White people in my office think I cut my hair. Lol. I was going to set the first person who thought so straight but I had a meeting and before I finished, the entire office knew I "cut" my hair so I just let it be. Lolllll.

Sooooo, I'm almost positive I'm going back into Senegalese twists this weekend. I want to rip this wig off my head. At work.
They looked great on you & you did a wonderful job!

I'm ready for next week to get here. I'll be getting a weave install on Tuesday, if my stylist is available.

I have been considering micros for a bit since I am growing my hair out and it's getting hot. I have been wearing a wig all winter. I know it will be too hot but because if the thin spot I'm afraid I will lose more hair with the micros. I don't know what to do.

4 weeks today and it's getting to the point of no return. I can see my scalp in one small part but the rest is all hair and the braids are much closer together than the were at first.
I just want to make it until June. 2-3 more weeks.
I already know I'm going to deep condition with the ORS Replenish pak once I take down the weave before undoing the braids. It's the only thing to get my hair newborn soft.

Lol not too good. My ends are sticking out the braids. Doesn't seem like much of a PS if this is what happens.

Ok, I'm enjoying the wig but the wig cap is giving me an almighty headache. I've worn it for a week and I can't bear it any more. Any advice for loosening a it cap?

Right. That's why I don't consider braids a real "protective style." There is not not much "protecting" my hair from the elements, albeit a little weave. Lol.
I just do braids because of my hair fatigue and apathy, although I'm learning how much work braids can be when I actually take care of them.

Lol. This is why I only lasted a week when I tried to go back to wigs.
I stopped wearing caps with my wigs. Too hot.
