Well, almost two weeks have past since my experiment and I must say it's been fun. The braidout definitely helped me hide my unraveled edges. I want to prevent my edges from unraveling. Other than waiting longer before I wash, what else can I do to prevent them from falling? Any advice is welcomed. What I really loved was the texture!

I loved the extra length as well. I was able to see how long my locs were with this style. When I do it again, I'm definitely going to keep the rollers in longer. This is a pic on the morning after. I receive

d so many compliments from my friends and family. They really felt like
the style fit my face--isn't it nice to finally find a unique style that fits your own personal beauty?! Unfortunately, my little bounce was gone after I slept on my hair. I could regain it after putting the rollers in in the morning but somehow my hair kind of fell by the end of the day. I also pulled my hair back into a bun and rocked some bangs for a few days. That was fun because the crinkles gave my hair extra texture so it looked like a style instead of a hair faux pas that I tried to cover up. James liked the little bun style (go J!) and of course I had to eat up all that positive attention. When I got tired of curling my hair, I misted it, gave myself some bangs and
Bam! another hair style.

Normally I just mist and freestyle but with the braidout, my misty freestyle had added volume! I felt all jazzy! Man I love SisterlocksTM! This braidout technique is too addictive! I can see why
Blaqkofi likes it. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to see how long my crinkles would last because I had to wash my hair for my 2nd retightening on March 3rd. I really love the texture of my hair before and after the retightening. That after pic reminds me of the 'fro that I used to rock a few years ago. I th

ought that I would be able to do the braidout again afterwards but my head hurt so bad, it was hard for me to sleep on it let alone braid it. It's funny, I have tender spots on my head but in other places it didn't feel painful where Diana retightened. But if I put my hand on my head to move the locs, my head hurt. It think my hair strands aren't used to being bound in a different position and are unable to lay in their original position. Does that make sense? Anyway, it's been about 4 days and my hair has loosened so I'll try it again this weekend.
