"I tidied up my twists last week 31st May I had a night out planned for the 1st June and wanted my hair to look as neat as possible."
I tidied up the back first on 29.05.12 and then a couple of days later I redid the
twists at the front hairline and along the centre parting during the evening of 31st May. I periodically undo braids which feel a little bit too loose or overtaken by new growth for my liking.

The first picture shows the nape after it had been re-twisted and the picture on the right shows what it looked like beforehand. |

Same as above (before on the left, after on the right). |

Left = After, Righ = Before |

This
is a section of my hair which has just been taken out of a kinky
twist. I am really pleased with how my hair feels, moisturised and
strong with little shedding and no breakage. I hope this continues when
I take out the twists. |

All finished.
As you can see the front is not imaculate as I don't braid tightly,
just tight enough :) It doesn't look like this anymore though as it's
been over a week since I tidied the twists up! |

I am loving having my hair in these twists, so much in fact that I am planning to put in another set of twists with the exact same colour hair. I will take these out in about 2 weeks time, wash and deep condition my hair with protein and then wash again a week later and put the twists back in again for another 6 weeks. I will then wear my own hair for 2 weeks before relaxing and trimming.
This means that I will be in a protective style for my
2nd HHJ Year Anniversary. But that is okay with me - I am loving the twists so much that i am willing to make the small sacrifice! I won't lie, I am a little concerned about doing another long stretch and messing up my relaxer again by not pulling the relaxer down far
enough and causing yet another under-processing fiassco. I think this time round it should be easier to judge whether the relaxer is where it should be because I now use the
half and half relaxer method. This way, application will be more precise and if I notice any bits that aren't covered I can get to them quickly and in theory have enough time to smooth out any problem areas. I will do a length check and trim during my relaxer day.
As a sidenote, it has dawned on me that I haven't washed my hair in almost three
weeks! I just don't fancy walking around with soaking wet hair when
the sun is not shining. Man I need to get my s**t together and just get
it done! I will see if I have enough time to do it in the morning, if not I will have to do it tomorrow evening when I get home from work. I don't have any visible build up and my scalp feels fine and dandy so I could push it to the end of the week if I need to.
