Hi ladies!
I’ve missed you all! I appreciate everyone’s supportive emails and messages during this new chapter in my life. There are good days and bad days and honestly, I haven’t been in the right space to blog lately. But I’m still going to post about my grow out challenge. I wrestled with how to approach my grow out challenge and I decided to get box braids. I’m restarting my hair journey the same way I first started my hair journey almost 10 years ago. Talk about coming full circle.
My cousin braided my hair this past weekend. It took about 5 hours over two days. I used 100% kanekalon hair and it took 3 1/2 packs of hair to braid my entire head. The braids came out waist length and she cut them to mid-back length. But I still think they’re too long so I plan to shorten them this weekend.
Since the braids are super long, I wear my hair in a high bun to the office. I plan to wear the braids for 6-8 weeks and then relax my hair after I remove the braids. I’ll post my braid regimen this week.
What’s your protective style for the summer?
