Wear hair up for a month/few months/year challenge!

Day 6: Two braids. I was very tired so I did something I could just keep when I went to bed...
Day 7: Cinnabun during most of the day, now I have applied a honey mix so my hair is up in plastic wrap at the moment.

I hope you feel better soon, AJN!

Thanks. I do, too. This is no fun at all.

Joiful -
I hope you get better quickly - I just got over a cold - so not fun. I feel for you. (offers virtual chicken soup)
Hair was put in a dutch braid secured just below nape leaving a long tassle.

Day 65: Henna#2 seems to have been a success. Most of my roots seem to be about the auburn I expected. Braided bun started from a ponytail ("hairsafe" elastic in use) and secured with my Etta Mae birds eye maple fork. Bangs are held back and slightly poofy with bobby pins. I think the bobby pins are breaking my hair.

I actually didn't take a picture today... Weird.

Edit: Now with more picture (wanted to see the color in the sun):

Why do my braided buns always come out so retarded?

AJN - GET BETTER!!!

Neorah - Thank you!

I'm so boring, I do the same bun (orchid bun) every day), because I can do it in...like 30 seconds or something like that. It's hard to try new buns for me because they take longer...anyone a suggestion for an easy and fast updo?

I like buns the best as the hair is all out of my way and I can do everything without having to watch out for it.

Day 13 of 32:
Banded Pony tail. I am slowly getting better, but mornings are the worst. I couldn't hold my arms over my head long enough to braid or bun. And I didn't want it in a pony tail, loose to be in the way... So I did a banded pony (or caterpillar).

Warmer months I was wearing FT. When winter got here I went into braids, dynala single or double with a Buff over it all.
And a hoodie. I leave home for work when it is still dark and cold.
With warmer weather approaching I am still liking my FT and have just discovered the equilibrium bun. Held with either a Ozark stick(s) or a ficcare. I am going to trya flexi 8 on that one as well.
So, yes protective 'do'. Unless down drying.
Nighttime, velvet scrunchies down the length if I am to lazy to braid.
I'll check in from time to time, since I do this on an ongoing basis. Habit already.
