last pic. This is my first time doing this since I was little. The girl who did it got it flat enough where I can wear my wigs w/o any issues.

Oh now I see it in this pic, it's the light reflection, it looks metallic NijaG how long will it last? I was think of doing that in the near future but don't want to take all day doing it to last less than a week

It took the girl abt hour and half max. As for how long it last, I remember as a kid, we use to do our hair weekly as our norm routine. I know it can last longer if handled properly. I'm trying for minimum of 10 days. If it last longer all the better.

Havana Twists for me!

Can't figure out why the pics upload sideways.

I had Senegalese twists for a month and these are some of the styles I wore.

They look great! Did u have to put rubber bands on the ends to keep them from unraveling?

Sorry it took me so long to respond using @ before typing a name lets the person know she was mentioned.**not sure if you knew

No, I didn't use rubberbands, my hair is pretty kinky so it stays in place then I just bunched it all together with the flexi8

 

[MizzBFly]

How you keep hair from unraveling @MizzBFly

Lilmama1011

Sorry it took so long to respond I never got your mention in my inbox.... hmmm weird

My hair is so kinky(texlaxed) that it just holds, plus using the perm rods would add security.

OAN..I just informed someone to use @ when asking a question to someone and look what happened ironic......

Basic ponytail clipped up so ends don't rub my shirt.

Boom. Simple protective style for the style impaired like myself. Lol

Ponytail, twist individuals, bun it up. Have went 3 days so far...hopefully this can be a go to protective style for me.

So this is my second time trying crochet braids. Pretty easy to maintain. Braiding pattern and finished product. I used freetress brook curl in 1b and 1b/30

chantall214, you got mad skills. Did you add hair in? If so, what kind of hair is that?

For awhile I was doing plaits and braids. Now my protective styling is wigs until December when I do a press (first time this year) and length check for BSL.

Hating this hair but trying to keep this in until Nov 8th, then on to kinky twists
