Okay guys I have a little over one-quarter of a head of my micro braids out now, goodness I hate this last stretch, I am ready to get these bad boys out and comb and wash my hair. I have had these braids since October 21 and I have had a little over an inch all over from using Surge and Gueye Antiseptic Braid Spray (Renuherbs.com). So I must say that those 2 sprays are my favorite, and they promote growth and help to detangle. I do have the Dark and Lovely spray and it is cool, I tried to include it in my regimen, once I found it under my sink, but I had already fallen in love with the other 2 sprays.
AfroChick, I had this same exact problem of frizz and the hangtime from the growth I was getting, were making my braids look like ancient history, so that is why they are coming down in 8 weeks as opposed to the 3 months I usually keep them. My best friend who is natural told me to apply some type of non-alcoholic gel and then put on a scarf. So I did that for a while with my Gueye Gel which promotes growth too and I would put on my satin scarf. We can't just lie around with our hair untied with these braids either, so even if you just want to lay down tie a scarf on, that is why my frizzies got worse, I was not up to par on my scarf.
