Back view. Its just braided and and rolled on perm rods.

My favorite part is a fresh retightening. My consultant shampoos my hair with Dove Unpure. During the process she applies baking soda, sprays vinegar, and pours Seabreeze in my scalp. She allows this to sit for about 5 minutes. This is pure heaven. I can go much longer between shampoos when she shampoos my hair. It typically itches like crazy by day 5 when I shampoo it. This last month I only shampooed it once between retightenings. One because I wanted to avoid slippage and two she can obviously do it a lot better than I can. If I was half way organized I would schedule "shampoos" but that is just another appointment for me along with everything else. :) I am not there yet. lol
This set doesn't really give me the look I want but it does create volume. Until they thickening up I will be experimenting with the perm rods. The next time I will use the perm rods without the braiding. However, when I do that it just straightens out my curl pattern and it looks like stringy hair. Not the look I am looking for. Although everyone that sets their hair with perm rods achieves the look I want. Lol. Until it starts to swell a little more this is it. I also lose my length with the perm rods but I have to have something for the ends. Until next time. Honestly the super high bun is my favorite look right now so I am merely just experimenting. :)
