Self- Braiding Today....

[FemmeCreole]

Well I actually started braiding my hair about 7PM yesterday and I'm only half way done. I fell asleep so now I'm about to resume.

This is my first time self-braiding and I'm quite proud of myself thus far.

I'm using Model Model Marley Braids. I bought 3 packs and so far I've used 1 and 3/4.

the pic is blurry and my photog was more interested in watching cars but this is what it looked like lastnight when I used up 1 pack

I've been itching to self install some kinky twists, but it takes soooooo long to do...
Yours look pretty from what I can see !! Are you going to curl the ends?

I doubt it.... if I do it certainly won't be today

Lovely!! And yes it does take a long time.. but think about how you won't have to do your hair for 6-8 weeks

I also stopped to cook and I did 4 loads of laundry too...

Very nicely done, Val. They look so natural. Do people get extension checked? Just asking, not coz I am doubting you have additional hair or anything.

I wish I could self-braid...

Anyway, great job!

I would love my natural hair to grow to that length ... That's my goal... I have ways to go though...

Just jump in. I thought I couldn't do it but I decided that I had to learn since it's so expensive. Last month I paid $140 to get it done... I think I did a better job. I just need to work on my speed.

Oh and I looked at a number of YouTube tutorials.

Great job, hon!
Very pretty!

thank you!
