The Cons:
- The sort of scalpy large plaits take a long time install.
- The plaits seemingly forever to take down.
The Pros
- My hair is "did" and I don't have to think about doing anything with it for a while.
- It can be done on hair with blunt ends without unraveling (unlike twists).
See pics of my new style below.

I love this style on you....! I wish I could have the patience to sit down and install small braids like this!
ReplyDeleteThanks Miss Nicolette. You could always do what I did and dpay someone to do them for you. This didn't take as much as two hours.
ReplyDeleteSo cute. I remember transitioning back in 2002. It was so difficult that I ended up with long micro braids that i'd wear for months before getting redone. One weekend after taking down my extensions, I went to a shop and let them cut out my relaxer and even up my hair. I came home and looked at my freshly washed hair in the mirror and I remember marveling at my fou inches of loose natural hair and not knowing what to do with it. Back then I was not using the internet as a resource and so I had no idea how to style my natural hair. I really wish I had known how lovely box braids could look on short hair back then cause I'm sure i'd have rocked them like you're doing in this picture. You go girl! Simply adorable!
