Natural Hair Stories: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly... Box Braids


So YES after 2 weeks I decided to take my box braids OUT! This was my first protective style and I will be searching for more alternative styles, I don't think this one was for me, I'm very tender headed. It was super cute while it lasted. Check out my highs and lows of this style! 



 THE GOOD! For 2 weeks I had a break from my natural hair routine. The washing, conditioning, deep conditioning, blowing out, dry two strand twisting, THEN twisting my hair at night... (I actually started to miss this process when I had my hair braided lol Go Figure)... I could rock a cute Bun and that's about it!


THE BAD!  The Length
I had hair ALL THE WAY DOWN MY BACK! Honestly I haven't had this much hair before in my life! 

THE UGLY! O.M.G. This hair was super cute BUT super heavy, I was only able to achieve two updos and even wearing the bun was a little uncomfortable. My scalp was not responding to the hair, it was dry and flaking and lastly It TOOK forever to take these mini box braids out! I so welcome back my blonde afro!
