A couple of weeks ago I tried my first braid out.... I'm not really sure how I feel about it at this point. I feel like it's one of those styles that will look better once I get some more length.
In order to "set" the braid out I sprayed my dry locs with water, before saturating them with diluted alcohol free gel.
I then made braids using 3 locs per braid. The braids were secured with black rubber bands. I allowed them to stay in for ~a day. I would have left them up longer but my scalp seemed quite irritated with the braids. In the end they didn't look too bad but meh.... I wasn't feeling it.
