Braid-out style #2

This is style #2:

Bronzeg method: 
I used he long term relationship leave-in - 
And sealed with olive oil -

Results: 

The results were great. My hair seemed to actually dry faster. The drying time was less than with style 1 but this one dried faster. Less shine but more supple ness. It's really not that big of a difference curled were less crunchy. It's a less fluffy swinging look, more tamed. I love both coconut oil and olive oil.

Braid out style #1

Method used: bronzeg on damp hair
 
Products: herbal essence long term relationship leave in and coconut oil 

Results: I really love this combination of products. The coconut oil just does it right the curls are we'll defined and shiny defined and the shine is so beautiful. The hair is a tad cruncy probably from the oil. But by far this is a great product combination that is a staple in my book. 
My hair was in braids for about five hours. It was about eighty percent dry. So there is a lot of frizz. But this style had a lot of body and swing.

10 Braidouts in a row challenge. (ON STRETCHED HAIR)

So I'm starting a ten day braid-out challenge! I am doing it to play with my eight weeks post hair! I'm aiming to make it to ten weeks while maintaining a cute style. I've made it to ten weeks before but my hair was not cute the whole way through. Lol I'd say because of dryness and moisture and protein balance. So ill be very focused on these areas. As we'll as playing with different products AND braiding techniques to see what gives best results! 

Yesterday's braid out was okay . I cowashed and used my herbal essence  leave in. Then sealed with olive oil. I did the bronzeg method for the braid out. I had very fluffy curls but it frizzed and turned dry. Maybe from not having my head covered overnight.
