My braidout (on my natural APL hair) PITCHASSS!

[Auburn]

YOU KILT IT.

how did you braid and how many??

I just braided the regular way in plait straight down. I ended up with 14 "box braid" style plaits

I love the photos you took. Doing something a little different. Nice to see some personality.
And your braid out is AWESOME too!

Beautiful braidout!! You did such a great job! Can't wait til I'm fully natural to try it! Right now when I attempt a braidout on these 2 different textures it's soo not cute lol.

Your braid out came out really nice. It looks so soft. When I used to do braid out that i wore for a whole week, I would pin it up at night, take the pins out in the morning and shake it. I didn't even use satin cap or pillow then. I used gel in mine though but I applied lots of moisturizer (ORS lotion) so it was never dry.

Gorgeous! I love it!

 

[fivetimestwo]

Absolutely gorgeous!!!

 

[naturalmanenyc]

gorg, gorg, gorg!!!!!!

Where's the drool emoticon when you need it???!!

 

[SilkySwag]

It's so pretty!!

 

[Rocky91]

guuurrlll...u betta QUIT PLAYIN with all that hair!! it's gorgeous.
BTW: for maintenance, try a pineapple. flip your head over and pile all the hair at the top of your head, then place a bonnet over it. the curls/waves will be at the top of your head, and likely won't get smashed. works very well for me.

What effect did leaving the conditioner in have on your hair?

 

[Auburn]

Thank you ladies! I really appreciate it.

I was totally thinking about the pineapple idea! Thanks Rocky.

funkycoils - my hair just feels uber soft shiny and manageable. Its not sticky or flaky for me. i think the left over oil had some to do with it. That was the first time I left a lot conditioner in my hair by the way.

 

[jamaicalovely]

wow, very pretty

 

[Mandy4610]

WOW, your hair is beautiful. Girl are you sure it is APL. It looks like it could be BSL stretched

 

[cocosweet]

That does it! Between you and SparklingFlame, I'm inspired to try a braidout this week. Mine always come out wonky, but I'm keeping hope alive!
