Braidout! (pics)

[Leeda.the.Paladin]

I got done swimming and didn't feel like putting in twists. So, after a DC, I spritzed my hair with a homemade spritz, applied Afroveda Totally Twisted, and detangled each section with my Denman. I then braided largish sections, just fingerparting and grabbing. I sealed the braids with coconut oil.

I let it air dry and then took it apart separating gently.

I'm so happy that my hair is long enough that this looks ok now. When it was shorter, if I tried to do braids this large for a braid out, it wouldn't have enough definition.

Very cute style. How long did the braids stay in before you took down? Did you air dry or use a hood dryer?

I airdried, it took a while. I did it that night and then slept in them and took them down maybe midafternoon the next day.

This is the third day and it's holding up well. I'll probably put it up in a messy bun tomorrow and the next day.
