Funny statement. Grin Being biracial does not guarantee long healthy hair. Just saying  Wink

@Topic I keep braids in for a short period. Like  2 weeks maximum. They get boring pretty quickly. Weaves I keep in for 6-8 weeks.

When i was a lot younger i always have braids and cornrows, i had a rule though!

My braids and cornrows only stayed on for a week back then!

I wear shower caps, and i keep it firmly wrapped to preserve it!

I am not gay and i aint no sissy, so please dont ask me!!!

Bob malley.  .  .i only do box braids too.  Never did pick and drop - i think that one would be hard to wash.
