Here’s the week 2 update. They are holding up well. The front of my hair is a little fuzzy but I easily fix that with a silk scarf.
Here’s the week 1 update if you missed it.

An Afro-American girl with afro textured hair. I found a method of maintaining my hair in braids that I'd like to share! :)
I really like this method. It suits me and my lifestyle down to a tee.Its so Practical, i can do different styles without manipulating my hair too much, and be able to wash my hair as much as I want. I was doing twists before but washing often led to tangling and breakage.
Thanks for you comment Laila! I feel exactly the same way.
I love how easy it is to just get up and go, no need to fuss with my hair. During the month I was out of braids, I put 3-4 mini twists in and they tangled so badly, I had to cut of the ends to get them out. Twists just don’t agree with my fine hair, smh.
saaaame. they tangle at the root too. What I don’t understand is why i stuck with them for so long. When i do minibraids I get an undergrowth of short broken hairs from all the tangles and breakage past.
I’m trying to look on the bright side though, as my hair is quite thick already and once the breakage is rectified it can only get thicker
