What a struggle! The only thing saving this challenge, was my ability to change hairstyles every 10 days. If I had to rely on a salon to install my protective styles, I don't think I would have survived this challenge. I began this challenge with a partial weave. My curls could not blend with the silky weave for more than a week. I refused to apply heat, and using the banding method was not getting silky results.
I removed that style, Deep conditioned, and installed a full head weave. This style was super cute, I used a bit of color, since I will not color my own hair, at this time. I enjoyed playing with different lengths, textures, and colors without having to make a permanent commitment with my own hair.
2 weeks later, I installed an invisible part weave in a show stopping, 24 inches. I enjoyed this style because it was such a departure from my real hair.
I have no plans to cut my bangs, but I really enjoyed rocking these blunt, coco colored bangs, as well. More than half way through my challenge, it is becoming easier. I still peek under my protective styles daily. This 60 day challenge, has moved from a daily struggle, to a well needed break from styling my curls.
My Final protective style for this challenge will be simple. I will revisit crochet braids. They are a snap to install, the hair is cheep, and the style can last for weeks. I miss my curls terribly and I will probably get curly hair for this last style. I cant wait to share my 60 day challenge results with you! As Always I continue a moisture regimen while my hair is protected.
