My sister and I have officially decided to do protective styling on our hair for next few months in an attempt to reach our hair goals. Protective styles are any hair styles in which your natural hair is braided or lifted up off of your shoulders in an attempt to prevent breakage or any damage to your hair. Protective styles include but are not limited to buns, twists, braids, weaves, and bantu knots.
The protective style I chose was Marley twists. I got mid back length Marley twists almost a month ago and I love them!
I used the Cuban twist brand with ombre affect. I have dark roots that fade into a deep red shade. I originally purchased 10 packs of hair but I only used 6 packs.

It took about 4 hours to complete and it turned out perfectly. I'm really happy with them!
I had originally planned to keep them in for a month but I hadn't even realized three weeks had already passed. I think I'll keep them in for a little longer.
After this, I'm planning to do a perm rod set and then transfer straight into my first sew in! I'm so excited!
Unfortunately I didn't take many pictures with them so these are the only two that I have.
Until next time lovelies!
