Remember when I posted the vid about the rod set a few weeks ago? Well I tried it.
Since I knew it would take forever to rod my hair, I cowashed the night before. I did a DC overnight. The next morning I rinsed out the DC and went to work.
2 hours and 80 rods later...
Day 1 (I did not attempt to pull them apart at all. I just rocked out)
Day 3 (slightly pulled)
Day 5 (Fully pulled apart)
Day 10 (yes, you read right)
I plan to keep the party going until my wash day on Sunday. So I actually maintained the style for two whole weeks. This is huge people. All I did was sleep in the satin bonnet. In the morning I would moisturize with jojoba or coconut oil. I would shake and pull on the curls to help them pop back out.
