Kimmaytube on Fros

So I recently watched this video by Kim Love, where she talked about why she doesn't wear an unstretched 'fro' - well, at least not intentionally.  She explained that it just leads to tangles and potential breakage which could all be avoided by just keeping her styles in the confines of 'stretched styles'.  For me personally, I totally agree with KT's sentiments because of my current hair length, and goals.  My hair out for extended periods just equals more detangling than I find fun, and potential breakage.  So while I used to love wearing my puffs, I've seriously cut back on them. 

This is all subjective - if you have less hair, a looser texture, or aren't fanatical about retaining length, or simply love an afro, then go 'head, pick it out and rock it, if you like it, I love it!

I think textured (twistout/braidout) out styles are the way forward, as long as I'm trying to retain length to achieve longer hair.
