For the wedding festivities a few weeks ago I decided to have my hair done again, but this time to do it the simple way, without tight braids.  The stylist pulled it back into a tight ponytail, braided it into 4 braids, got some fake hair and braided that into 7 or 8 braids, and sewed (yes, with needle and thread) all of those braids up and around, as you can see.  Then she put a type of hair-spray gel into my hair that wasn&#8217;t braided.  It was a gel, but worked like a very strong hairspray.  It also tinted my hair darker, which I&#8217;m not sure they even knew would happen since their hair is black already.  It actually stayed quite well since I didn&#8217;t wash it and wrapped it up when I went to bed.  I got it done on Wednesday and didn&#8217;t take it out until Monday, after the wedding festivities on Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday.  And for those of you who have ever gotten your hair done at a stylist&#8217;s, you&#8217;ll appreciate the price.  The fake hair &#8211; $2.20.  The cost to get it done &#8211; $3.  Total &#8211; $5.20.  Nice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I think I&#8217;ve posted pictures on here of my hair being done in African braids before.
