It is winter time now, and women around the world are doing what they can to protect their hair. I find that my hair thrives the best when it is being left alone. Typically throughout the winter, even when my hair was relaxed, I found different ways to protect it. One of the ways that I would protect my hair in the winter is that I would have my hair professionally braided. Now, I find that now in my natural state, I do not keep the styles in as long. With that being said, I no longer find it necessary to continue to spend an arm and a leg to to protect my hair...Especially when I can just do it myself.
The first time that I installed the XL box braids into my natural hair, is one of the most liberating things that I had done for myself. To know that I can have the luxury of doing such a wonderful. protective style, the way that I like it made me excited as you can imagine. You can have that luxury to!
Peep the video below in which I give a tutorial on how to install some gorgeous XL box braids right at home, for under $20!
Have you installed braids into your hair before?
If so, what style did you do?
What type of hair did you use? Synthetic or human?
