Me too, I got my box braids in on December of 2009. I haven't taken any breaks and have been wearing braids now for one year and one month. I intend to wear braids until the end of 2011 or June of 2012.
welcome to the challenge!I would like to join this challenge pls. I braided all last yr and would like to continue this yr for 2011. Thanks
You and the weave are lovely... it's really natural looking!
There's no reason to watch from the sidelines as you can still wear your hair in cornrows under your wigs. I think wigs are a great PS and an easy way to do the C&G method and I'm definitely going to try it out sometime during the year!I'm switching from braids to wigs, so I'm not sure if I can join the challenge, but I'll be watching from the sidelines! Goodluck everyone.
Aw thank you ! It's such a breeze I hope it stays for 8-10 weeks
I bet will last up to twelve weeks because you have bangs but I wouldn't recommend leaving it in longer than eight weeks because of matting and dryness issues, which could cause you to lose all of your progress.
Anyways, it really looks so beautiful and natural on you...I'd never known it wasn't your real hair...just the right thickness and texture. I love it!
Did you do it yourself?
^^ I don't go two months between installs either, I go two weeks & so far my hair has not suffered from it. I did the C&G method modified to go from el to SL with no problem.
I still haven't taken my braids out from my 1st install, they are now 2 months old. I have
to take them out this weekend!
