Another go-to lace wig
Will post name tonight

 

[LaVgirl]

These braids were done on very stretched hair and they are rope type braids (similar to a rope twist) to get maximum length. My own hair. It took 25 hours (not counting breaks!) over the course of a week or so. I plan to leave them in until October.

Braid-out on kinky straight wig.

My favorite protective style, hands-down, is crochet braids installed via a unique technique my stylist developed to give it a more realistic look: https://theblossomingnaturalhairnewbie.wordpress.com/about/wp_002322-1/.

My hair REALLY grows with this protective style, and I receive many compliments on the style.

Here is a video of my stylist demonstrating her crochet installment technique, which she refers to as a "crawling" technique:


Blessings!

That's so pretty!! I'm considering getting a kinky straight just specifically for braid-outs / twist outs. How does the style hold for you? I'm concerned that the hair won't hold the style because it's proessed straight.

Not sure this is for me but I didn't use anything to hold the style. I just washed it, applied a little oil and braided the hair while it was damp. I left the braids in overnight and took them out in the morning. It lasted a couple of days.

@AbsyBlvd That post was for you, I was on my iPad and for some reason my reply didn't quote your post. I think my next unit will be a kinky straight which I will wear in twistout/braidouts. I love the way your's turned out, it looks very natural. In fact, I think I will do that instead of getting curly units from now on. Curly units hate me.

Your protective style is so pretty! I'm inspired!

 

[GGsKin]

Thank you @AtlantaJJ. I don't really like braid outs on my own hair (maybe when I get more length), but I loved how it came out on this wig.

 

[pre_medicalrulz]

Lol this is convenient lol

Conrow cap

 

[Caramel74]

I conditioner wash, then towel dry. Apply water to the ends only, then apply shea butter and argan oil to the ends and also that top section in the back that is always so dry and frizzy. This is my wet bun

 

[Caramel74]

Sooo pretty!
I'm lazy...all I normally do is bun, but I wore a curly pony today.

I can relate! It's hard to spend all that time styling when one, you know it's not good for your hair, and two, you get used to throwing it back and calling it a day.

 

[futureapl]

@yaya24 you have great teeth. Do you whiten them?

 

[yaya24]

@futureapl

Lol Thanks.
I haven't recently. But I have on and off for the past 10+years with crest whitening strips. Usually for a week each quarter.

I also rinse my mouth out with peroxide daily.

5 or 6 years ago I asked my dentist if he could professionally whiten them and he laughed and said they where already at the brightest white on the chart.

Crest whitening strips are great.

 

[halfindian]

Just a few...

 

[Ivonnovi]

I decided to do micro genie locs. I did these myself in September (labor day weekend), and I' am just now getting around to re-tightening them (and posting pictures).
I use the interloc method to re-tighten them.
I included pictures of the roots to show how the new-growth looks. I may keep these past February!! growth looks.

i would love to have so many different hairstyles (very short without cutting my hair...so wig) and long sometimes..my husband HATES wigs. so that is something that is kinda stopping me...and I think it may work as a great protective style for my fine strands high density hair. its fustrating.... id like a wig that looks natural. really close to my 4 type hair :-/

Have you looked at the Tonie Daley wigs?

 

[GGsKin]

How I am wearing my hair under my wig right now. I left the last set in for four weeks. I'll take these down next week (after only two weeks) to dust my ends. I'll probably rebraid in the same pattern and reapply my wig.
