Yarn Braids vs Synthetic or Human Hair Braids

I braided my hair with yarn the weekend of Nov. 11th and I am not removing them until Dec 10th. My hair will be at least 1/2 inch longer. I will redo them that same day and leave in for another month and so on until I've achieved my desired lenghth.

I know I will miss running my fingers through my natural tight nappy curls so there is a chance I may leave it out for about a week after I remove the yarn braids.

I must tell you...I love the yarn braids. They match my natural woolly hair texture and they do not tear my hair b/c its so soft.

I love it better than synthetic or human hair b/c whenever I remove synthetic or human hair braids, i notice a lot of breakage because my real hair tends to get mangled and caught up in the many strands and its just not the best situation.

I love yarn braids and its so easy to maintain. I wash my hair every weekend with my favorite moisturizing shampoo then i let it air dry then spray it with my concoction of oils and water. I spritz it each night as well along with a refreshing concoction of menthol, eucalyptus, camphor oils, barry's tricopherous and water.

Until then...
