Mine is not at all heavy. Though it's reasonably thick (3,5 inches), even my braids don't seem to have any weight to them. I've always envied the way heavier braids fall and swish beautifully, as mine just seems to stick out of my head and defy gravity. Of course I've always made it very tight to control the flyaways. Now I just make the braid looser and start it in a way that seems to hold more hair in it, and it's more pliant, but still a bit awkward and prone to standing stick-straight over my shoulder if I pull it forward. Hopefully with a little more length it will be even more manageable.
