Going the Distance
About 98% of the time. The only way I'll wear my hair up is in the summer when it's too hot on my neck and it's too frizzy to hold a style.
How often do you wear your hair down?

I grew my hair out from a short layered cut like this as well. I knew nothing of a protective style. As long as you are keeping your ends moisturized and oiled, and tying your hair up w/ a scarf at night, it shouldn't be a problem.

It's hot - so I don't wear it out at all. I'm on a personal 6 mo bun challenge.
Wish me luck

I wear my hair down most of the time. Maybe 1-2x a week I wear it in a bun or ponytail, if just to mix things up a bit, and especially if I'm not entirely satisfied with the way my hair looks that day.

This summer since it's so hot, I haven't really been minding wearing it up in a cute bun (hair is "super" slicked back with sylver's scarf method) and shampooing and conditioning once a week. I don't even comb it the entire week, just moisturize the ends of the bun nightly and bun it back up.
My goal is really to surprise myself (and others) when I relax again. As long as its down, I will be obsessing over length, but since it's up, I'm not constantly worried about "is it growing, etc...." Besides, it gets ultra dry with it being down during the summer....

As weird as it sounds, I think my hair pulled back and in my bun (with my big Jackie O. shades on) looks very "classic" as well. With my makeup looking flawless and cute earrings on and hair slicked back, you can't tell me a thing!

Im transitioning so Ive been wiggin' n weavin' it....but when I was relaxed I HATED the way my hair looked up. I think its bc I have a really big head...I just really dont feel cute unless my hair is at least half down. My hair wasnt very thick when it was relaxed so my bun looked anorexic...I have noticed that with it almost fully natural now it looks much fuller pulled back so at least it does look like I have some hair.....when it was relaxed and pulled back I looked baldheaded even when it was past my shoulders. But honestly, I look much better with hair framing my face....guess thats what I get for having an alien head...lol.

I dont wear my hair down too often.
It's in some type of protective style 90% of the time.
IA that buns are classic and will never go out of style, it's one of my favorite updos.

"How often do you wear your hair down?" I don't think my hair understands those words. I NEVER wear my hair down and haven't since November 2004
. I started off wearing it up because I don't like short hair(on me) but since the hair boards, another reason why I wear it up is because it's at a critical length(shoulder length) right now and i don't want it rubbing on my clothes. In addition to this all this "long hair" talk I be giving everybody, I don't want to just wear my hair out after all this time and it's still short. I feel like people will be like, "Uhh...that's it?" I do plan on wearing my hair down around Christmas time though

I completely with Sylver agree. I wear my hair out every single day. I have grown it from shoulderblade length to past my shoulders already in just 4 months. As soon as i get home I immediately wrap it back up. Other than that when its down i just make sure my ends are well moisturized.

Almost never. It's always in some type of protective style.

3-4 times a week. When I do wear it down I do the following at night:
I moisturize my ends only with Elasta QP Mango Butter (last 2 inches of hair), Then use Dudley's PCA Moisturizer on from root the point where Mango Butter begins. Finish with Kera Care Essential Oils to seal moisture. Works well for me.
