Winnergal: Funny statement.  Being biracial does not guarantee long healthy hair. Just saying  @Topic I keep braids in for a short period. Like 2 weeks maximum. They get boring pretty quickly. Weaves I keep in for 6-8 weeks. |

When i was a lot younger i always have braids and cornrows, i had a rule though! My braids and cornrows only stayed on for a week back then! I wear shower caps, and i keep it firmly wrapped to preserve it! I am not gay and i aint no sissy, so please dont ask me!!! |

Iice, braids or bob malley (the long braids)? |
| Re: ~ How Long Do You Keep Your Weaves, Braids & Cornrows~ by iice(f): 9:05pm On Apr 18, 2009 |
Bob malley. . .i only do box braids too. Never did pick and drop - i think that one would be hard to wash. |
| Re: ~ How Long Do You Keep Your Weaves, Braids & Cornrows~ by Pittbaby(f): 9:43pm On Apr 18, 2009 |
I only do pick and drop and yes you can not wash it unless you dont mind looking crazy and half the braids coming out |

All, 2 weeks- going for the 3rd week is pushing it. |

Its a mood thingy for me but usually not more than the 2 weeks "tops" recommended for cornrows and 4weeks for braids. so many factors informs when some pple shld take those things off though; itchy scalp, scanty hair, too lazy to clean braids et al  |

Whenever I get twists and braids I usually keep them in for as long as they look fresh. It would be a month or two.  Pittbaby: Braids - 1 month , it gets itchy after the first two weeks and I can't wash it. Same here!!! My braids itch ALOT in the first few days - week. I usually apply a little water/oil solution or BRX braid spray to my scalp. They only work temp. tho. Only time helps to ease the irritation.  1 Like |

Cornrows - 1 week + Braids - 1 month + Weaves - not a fan. 2 days, if I manage to fix one. |
