Good evening everyone.

In September I put my hair into a "faux" sisterlocs style and have been wearing them every since.
My initial goal was 3 months, but it was convenient to leave them in and so I did. I don't think I've retightend them since Feb or early March.

I just recently started taking them down the pic below is a current length check. I do believe I can claim BSL Bra-Strap-Length!!!!!
The pic shows the length of the locs (they have a clip on the end); a pressed patch of my hair (BSL) and my hair in unstretched 2STs. The bun the rest of the locs are up in a bun.

@Allandra I protective style 99.9 % of the time. I do a couple of 2 strand twists and pin them around my head, or I'll do a bun.

I love how this style looks on you. Where did you get your head pieces from.

@Shalay11 I am about to put my hair into a protective style. I am thinking about leaving it in for the remainder of the summer.

Nice .. Some people can't handle Longterm protective styles while other people's hair tend to flourish in them .. Good luck with yours
