Box-Braid Grow It Challenge & Moisture Exp!

It is time to really see maximum length. Starting now until the end of 2012 I will be keeping my hair exclusively in small box-braids. I will do the braids small enough to be cute, but big enough to remove easily. I will primarily be wet setting my hair daily while it is in the braids. I will conduct monthly moisture experiments while I am wearing the braids.

My up keep routine:

I will set my hair in the braids within the next few days.

Every fourth week I wash my hair and then the next day I will divide my hair into 6 sections. Each day I will undo the braids in one section, detangle and rebraid the hair in that section. I will repeat the process touching up one section per day until my whole head is complete and then I will wash my fresh braids.

The Experiments:
1. Water Wash Method (Rinse hair with water daily no products added)
2. Water and Oil Method (Rinse hair with water and apply oil of choice)
3.Water and Aloe Method (Rinse hair with water and spray with aloe)
4. Water+Aloe+Oil Method (Rinse hair with water, spray with aloe and apply oil)
5. Water+ Braid spray Method (Rinse hair with water, spray with braid spray)
6. Water+Aloe+Braid spray Method(Rinse hair with water, spray with aloe and braid spray)
7. Water+ Braid spray+oil (Rinse hair with water,spray with braid spray and apply oil)
8. Water+Aloe+Braid spray+Oil
