Wash Day Diary: 21.03.12

"It was finally time to let go of the crochet braids and wash my hair."






I started the process of removing the crochet braids at around 6pm.  What with p*ssing about taking photos of my new cropped do and cooking dinner it took ages.  I didn't start applying my deep conditioner mix (the first step in the wash day process) until about 8.30pm! 

Taking out the crochet braids was easy but took longer than I thought it would - but I was being super careful with my hair.  To get the extension hair out all I had to do was first cut them down to about 2 inches in length, then apply some oil or Taliah Waajid Mist Bodifier to my fingertips and then start to unravel the cornrow.  The extension hair just comes out as each braid is unravelled.

I did it just like it's done in this video:
