Last year (wow, that sounds so far ago) I decided to get braids in my hair. And in September, after lots of money and countless hours, I had my braids! I was determined to keep them for a while (3 months) to get the most out of my style. Plus I'm practicing my protective styling, so I thought this would be good for me.
Well, about 15 days short of 3 months, I took them out! I missed my own hair, but when the time came to free my mane it was bittersweet.
And now that I have my hair back I miss my braids! I miss the "get-up-and-go-ness" of my braids without too much extra fuss. But, I do not miss the stress it caused my edges...and the constant fear of having a braid "fall" out...
For now, I will have fun playing with different hairstyles, until it becomes utterly unbearable and I have to put my hair away again. Hopefully that won't be for a while...
