Recently, I decided to change up my hair style a bit. I have had my hair in its natural state, no chemicals, since 2009. When I found out I was pregnant, I decided that I would do something different to my hair for a little while. I wanted to let my hair take a break from the dry air of Utah and I didn’t want to mess with it. I had a lot of morning sickness for a while so it took some time for me to actually decide and style my hair the way that I had liked.
The first style that I did took four days to complete. It was the first time that I had braided my own hair. (I’ll write another post about that) This time I decided to do something that would take less time to put in and to take out. I went with the braids that Janet Jackson wore in the movie “Poetic Justice.” This style took me 9 hours. Now that may seem like a long time, but I took care of my children, at and napped throughout the entire process.
I am really liking this style. My only complaint would be that the hair is heavy and super long. Yet I am going to keep it in for a little while. I worked so hard that I don’t want to to go to waists by taking the braids out too soon. I would do may hair like this again.
