Protective Style...

I have a new protective style!  I got a lot of complements on it.  Most people thought it was my real hair, but guess what?   It's not my hair.  It's actually synthetic hair that I crocheted into my hair.



When you think of crocheted hair you think of the cute styles that mothers put into their little daughter's head.  Well this is pretty much the same concept.

I went to my local beauty supply store to buy some bulk braiding hair.  Ugh, they never have what you are looking for.  So I decided to get regular curly weave hair on the welf.  I cut the hair off of the welf and crocheted it into my hair.  It took me about four hours to do it but, it turned out a lot better than I thought.  By the way I only used one pack of hair.

Next time I will order some bulk hair from ebay so that the curls hang a little more.  But overall I am in love with this protective style.  I will wear it for about two weeks and I plan on redoing it again because "the girls" are going to Fat Tuesday in New Orleans in a couple weeks.  Holla...



I braided my hair back into 9 braids.
