:laugh: no secrets really! I think its just the sew-ins that allowed me to put my hair away and stay away from all the heat and manipulation. Sew-ins done right are amazing for length retention. I just made sure the braids weren't too tight and kept up with washing & DC'ing. I love taking my weave down and seeing how much my hair has grown.

I learned so much from studying threads like

and

Also, the weave forum on BHM was extremely helpful. That's pretty much it! As little manipulation to your real hair as possible is definitely the way to go to maintain maximum length.


ETA: I've gotten pretty good at self-installing by studying this girls videos:

They are sooo helpful and show track placement, braid patterns and how to sew correctly. Anybody wanting to learn to do their own sew-ins definitely check her out.
