Today it's a single long twist...I washed it this morning :)
 
'Rina, so soft and fluffy looking.

Day 2 of my braided roots wash and go.




Thanks Mwedzi! I don't know about soft but it was fluffy LOL!!

Your braided-roots fro looks very nice..I know you are enjoying the low maintenance styling for a while .. how long do you plan to keep the roots braided this time? Are you rinsing/washing often?

I had them in for my twists and twist out last week and will keep them in for my wash and go this week, so just 2 weeks. I am too scared from what happened last time to go longer. Last week I washed 2x, this week I think I'll do it everyday. I enjoy washing, but hate the extended drying time, esp since it's still quite cool in Chicago, so a few minutes at the blow dryer will speed it up just a bit.

Oh and for those braids, I rolled them spiral like I did with the flexirods and I didn't use anything except moisturizer.

Isn't it time for you to post some new pictures?

I'm wearing box braids. I just did them 6 days ago, so it'll be a while before they come down.

WOWWWWW...tis all i can say. You ladies have gorgeous hair!
I'm wearing my trademark wash and go with a skinny band.
 
Honesty, how are you able to part the back when twisting? Or do you just grab and twist?

Let me see if i can explain. I don't make parts for the individual twists, I begin with parting my hair in big sections, at least four. Then i take those sections and make looong parts usually horizontally ( front to back on the sides and left to right in the back) across the total distance of the section forming rows. I usually do one row at time, so i make a long row and clip the rest of the section out of the way. Then i just grab a bit and make a twist until i complete the row. Although I have only parted the rows and just grab to do the actualy twists, it looks really neat! here is an example of micro twists i did in the back, here i acuatally made a column rather than a row but you get the idea, make one long part and then just grab and twist to make the indiviuals micro twists

I'm wearing my hair in 6 cornrows with my wig.

I'm hiding my hair now so i'm going to keep doing this for two weeks at a time for the next six weeks until I do my length check at the end of June.
