Or, if some of your hair is on the shorter side (like the nape of your neck”, you could end up pulling them-and sometimes your own hair-out. If you are rough with them, that can create those ugly fly-aways (more on that in a sec). But just like your natural hair can experience wear and tear, so can your braids. Your braids are killin’ the game and yes, there is nothing like being able to pull all of them up into a ponytail, look fly and go on about your day. And since I’ve gotten back into the saddle of box braid maintenance, I wanted to share with you what I’ve discovered has kept my braids looking fresh and new-no matter how long it may have been since they were first installed. My appointment to get them back in a couple of weeks has already been made. My reply was usually along the lines of, “When you’re spending a couple of hundred bucks a pop, you want them to last for as long as possible.”Ĭurrently, my braids are out but that’s only to give my hair a bit of a break. “Wow! They look like you just got them done” was the consistent response. Also, folks had a consistent look of shock if they asked me how long they had been in and I said more than a month. Each time, they stayed in for about seven weeks or so and, not one day went by when someone didn’t compliment me on them. My braids looked so good that I got them done twice, back-to-back. When I tell you that they had me looking super cute?! Girl, I must say so myself! ![]() Since they weren’t cheap-they were done really well but still, not cheap-I also decided to go all out and get them past my bra strap. Image: my effort to grow out my natural hair, I decided to get some medium-sized box braids.
