Challenging Myself Protective hairstyle {April 07/May 07: Locs & Twist Out}

I decided to put temporary locs in as a protective hairstyle. It's also a challenge to me because my fingers are always in my hair! I'm always playing in it or doing something over. Well i'm challenging myself to keep these locs in for a month and the only thing i can do to them is re-twist them. so GOOD LUCK because as pathetic as it is this will be hard for me!! lol

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I also challenged myself to work out at least 3 times a week. This didnt work well with my locs. They'd get sweat in em and shrivel up again and re-twisting after every workout was not an option. So I hid my hair for a week then did a twist out. This doesnt defeat the challenge at all because my hair was still given time to grow without me using heat, comb, or brush. In fact it grew a lot!! so i'm really excited.

i ended this challenge at 5/17, which made this a month long challenge. at the end of this challenge i gained .5", which isn't bad. that's the average growth. even though i was already growing my hair at that rate, at least i didn't lose any hair and i gave my hair a chance to rest. that makes this a mission accomplished and conquered!
