Hair Update

So as most of you know, it has been hot as Hades on the East Coast and I just can't take it. I can't take having hair anywhere near my neck I just want it away! So I've decided to put microbraids in my hair for the remaineder of the summer. Mind you, I don't go to get my hair braided; I have too many traumatic memories from my childhood. Hair pulling, scalp puckering, bumps forming all along my hair line, oh the horror! I learned at a fairly early age how to braid my own hair, and I'm very thankful for that. I'm not really hoping for a certain amount of growth or anything while doing this, I just want my hair to be safely put away while I sweat this summer out. I've noticed that it's gotten thicker more than longer, and I can appreciate that. So here are some pics of my hair now

Hopefully by September it will be even thicker, and healthy!
