So, this is just a quick update to show you guys how the curly ‘fro fared on days 2 and 3 with pineappling at night. Overall, the pineapple worked well on Monday night. My curls held up except for a few that loosened on one side (the side that I sleep on, of course ;)). So, I did a little repair work using Deva Care Set It Free and the grey flexi-rods!
Twenty minutes later …
So, day two hair. Not bad. Not bad at all. Day three, things got a little more wonky …
It actually didn’t look too bad, but it was definitely getting frizzier and some curls were drooping too much. Thank goodness for the Hairscapades Bunning Challenge. As I’d worn my hair down two days, it was time to put that bad boy up! So, quick, easy, high bun it was!
I did another simple and quick bun on Thursday (low this time), but didn’t get a pic … I mean, it’s all pretty much the same now. I did manage to take a pic of the quick bun I did with ONE Goody Ouchless elastic on Friday. This was after a loooooooong day at work.
Do you see the red eyes? I was DONE!
So yeah, that’s how the Curly ‘Fro turned into a bun over the course of a week. And, I know what you’re thinking, “How hard was it to detangle that on wash day?!?” Well, we’ll talk about that later.

So ladies, the Hairscapades Bunning Challenge was supposed to end this Saturday, 1/12/13. However, I’m planning on extending it another 2 months because I didn’t achieve my goal to gain another inch all around … because I got my hair cut in December!! LOL!!! But, it’s in better condition now and I’m seeing a lot less shedding and breakage, so it’s all good!!
That being said, who’s with me?!?! Want to take this bunning thing to March 9th?!?!
I’m with you on the bunning challenge! I said in a blog post that I will continue with the bunning challenge until my next relaxer. However I’m going on a holiday quite unexpected YAY! So I don’t know how that will go with bunning. Maybe I want my hair to be carefree in the warm weather and want it to blow in the wind LOL

Your curly fro maintained quite nice. Hopefully the next time you do it, the set up/flat twist will be easier.

Ok, I’m in- bunning til March! Even though I just bought the cute little ‘Mommy Wig’ by Janet, after watching all the YTers jazz it up. I commit to 6 days a week of wearing the bun of my varying choice. I just bought a Kanekalon Jumbo Braid Hair Extension on Amazon for a total of $5.48. Whoot! Whoot! RETAIN! RETAIN!…or just carry on. 🙂 Anyway, I’m a little past collarbone and would like to retain one full additional inch by March 31, 2013..Say goodbye to your ends. LOL
