I AM GETTING SENEGALESE TWISTS after all a year later I learned they are really light weightcompared to box braids.LIKE THIS BUT BLONDE!
Doing it myself. Totally doing it this time  classic length, loose & wavy half way down like this sort of Just waiting for my hair this color to get here and it is ON! it is Not #27 Don't like orange It's #24 Natural blonde. I may put a few strands of #613 Platinum only at the hairline . I also have a sunny yellow alcohol ink to give it all more of a sunny glow in case the fibers are a lil too ashen in tone.
I plan to spray it all daily w/ water, glycerin & olive oil. Twists are really light weight compared to box braids. I pray it works out and this might be my signature style

It hasbeen 2 years I've been consistently rocking box braids as a protective style. My hair has achieved lots of thickness. It is extremely healthy and my scalp...it is the best it's ever been. Coconut oil is a blessing. I cleanse and massage my scalp with it in between washes. Also, castile soap..I use it to wash my hair. I only wash my hair once per month. No more flaky and scaly scalp. I'm so happy because my scalp was such a huge issue...I couldn't go a few days without it acting up. I hope it continues like this because I love it and so does my hair! I only use 3 products: castile soap, coconut oil and conditioner. I want to find a good natural conditioner, but Suave is not hurting my scalp any and it's cheap. I use the coconut kind.

i would, but i ended up cutting a few inches off my hair in january lol so i'm pretty much right back to where i was prior to the cut- almost touching APL but i still have a few more inches to go. a couple. maybe one. but i predict i'll be at BSL or BSB at least by the end of the year. I'll probably put up an update pic in a couple more months. it's non too impressive right now

Good Luck. I was thinking of doing some Senegalese Twists as well for my Bday coming up and also a nice change of pace. I just need to find some lite weight hair, I'm not about that heavy styles.

Took down my hair on Saturday...rocked it because it looked so cute fresh out of being in braids for 3 weeks..got weave checked a few times lol. Washed it yesterday and decided to coil it versus braiding just to give it a break for a week or so. We'll see how long these coils last:)
