Hide Your Hair Until Christmas Challenge!!!

I'm in on this challenge.

I'll need at least three passes though just in case my husband sees my hair out between now and Christmas. It won't be done though so maybe that doesn't count.

If your husband sees it that's no big deal...I know that some of my family members that live with me will see it on occassion when I'm in between do's, but they will still be surprised come Christmas when they see it done.

Welcome!

Thank you! I'll wear my tried and true buns mostly. High buns, low buns, side buns....that's mainly all I ever wear when it's "put up". After my relaxer in mid-July, I may be able to swing some new updo styles and I promise to try my hardest to keep away from family during the times I have to wear it down. I also promise to make extra effort to consider other styles first before I resort to wearing it down once a month. Maybe there are some options I am not seeing. I'm excited! :weird:

I'm excited too!

OT: The pictures in your siggy are making me laugh:lachen: shame shame shame!

Count me in too. I am even going to hide my hair from my soon to be husband. I am going into a weave this weekend for my Wedding and honeymoon in 9 days. I will keep the weave for 6-8 weeks then get a relaxer. I will wear buns and phony ponies. I will wear a bun with a sideswept bang only when I go out on a special occasion. I want to prove him wrong so bad. I can't wait to see his face in December when he sees my hair. It should be at least shoulder length by then.

I hate that he doesn't truly believe in me:mad:


I will show him...and his little dog too

(Laughs sinisterly and exits thread)

Congrats on the wedding!!!

I'm sure you'll reach your goal, and that he will be :eek: when sees your hair come Christmas! He will then be all over you, but tell him to keep his hands out of the hair :lachen: .

Ooooo good idea! So that means you can't post update pics, though you should take them for yourself if you want to, but don't make them public. Also when and if you go to LHCF area meetings you should also be hiding your hair.

I'll add this info to my first post.

I never thought about that one!:D
 
Count me in. Now that my own hair is long even to cornroll all back without extensions added, I will be wearing my hair in corn rolls mostly without extensions and sometimes with. I'll be doing it myself. My hair is currently @ 2 inches in the back and 3 inches on top. My hair will be in braided cornrolls all the time and I'll redo them every weekend or maybe every other weekend as my hair gets longer.


I'll also will be striving to thicken my hair esp my temples and the back of my head.
 
OOOOHH CAN I BE IN TOO... IM CURRENTLY WEARING A WEAVE THAT IM JUST IN LOVE WITH SO IT MAKES IT EASIER FOR ME TO KEEP THE WEAVE IN LONGER.

AFTER THIS I PLAN ON GETTING ANOTHER WEAVE FOR ABOUT A MONTH- MONTH AND A HALF

THEN WHAT WE IN BALTIMORE CALL THEM I PLAN ON GETTING LONG BRAIDS HOPEFULLY I CAN KEEP THEM IN FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS

SINCE IM ON A PERSONAL " NO PERM TIL OCT 07" CHALLENGE THIS SHOULD HELP ME FOR AT LEAST THE REMAINDER OF THIS YEAR
 
Add me to the list. I will simply wear my hair pinned up-- nothing special. However (sorry) I will have to wear it down Saturday, June 21st. ANd then I will wear up dos for the rest of the year!
 
Count me in. I've been doing it already, but I guess I could continue thru Christmas...maybe even the new year.;)
 
Welcome ChiChiKinks, Nikki86, MissPriss08, teressa9 :wave: !!

@MissPriss08--It's ok if you need 1 day, there are a few other ladies taking a few passes between now and December too. :)
 
I'm in, but I have to wear it a few times. I'm a wedding in august and she wants my hair down, so that's twice. If I meet the rest of my bf's family, that's 1. So I need about three or four passes. That's not too much, right? :lol:

I'll be wearing buns.

I tried a braidout today thinking it would be a good protective style for this challenge, but the humidity thought otherwise. I may be able to save it by pinning it up, but I don't have any clips here at work. Soooo, looks like it's back to the drawing board for me. :(

Braidouts are good, but I would keep them pinned up to truly not show the length. I do this sometimes as a protective style and it works out pretty well. I sleep with it without rebraiding, in the morning I just refluff and pin up (adding moisturizers as well).

I'll add you to the list Naturaline!

I can't do this. I usually wear my hair out on special occasions (weddings, holidays, big meetings etc.) so I know I would fail this challenge.

Awww HairTwin!!!!!!!!! Come on!!! A few ladies here are taking a few passes between now and December, you could do the same.

Either way I need to do this challenge, I need to catch up to your length ;) (don't know if that will ever happen).
