I Made Myself A Promise ...

[Yuriatin]

... no more box braids – or any serious braids for that matter. I don’t want to end up looking like Susan Taylor. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek2.gif[/img]

I can’t TAKE the breaking and pulling!

But going down end of next month for a few weeks. I fully plan to be a complete beach hugger. Nothing I love more than swimming.

What should I do with my hair???

I don’t know WHAT TO DO? [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70394-bawlout.gif[/img]

Ladies – what should I do that will help me be able to be in & out of the water easily???

Helllllp!

Re: I Made Myself A Promise ...

Anyways. if yuh nuh mine weave u can get your hair done with some wet n wavy extensions.

or yuh can go natural an den jus wear u hair in ponytail or unda cap fi moas a u trip.

U can try twists instead of the braids. i think dem say dat is easier on the hair/scalp [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70402-thinking.gif[/img]


or u can try the big cornrows

B - my hair is like this girl here, above the "home" at the top of this page on the left.

I'm about 2inches shorter than her in the front.

I don't have that long flap of hair coming down the side.

I also make sure to use a leave in conditioner... Infusium has a 3 step system that seems to really priotect in stressful situations... also before going to bed smooth in some moisturizer... or honey honey and mayonnaise treatment - will help prevent breakage.
