Natural. I've always been natural. I've always used my own hair. Okay putting that aside.

It depended upon the weather. It was really humid, my college campus. It rained every other day. So I'd usually wear my hair in protective styles. Braiding my own hair in an array of different styles.

Like this but in variation:

Then a lot of twists and twist outs:

Then sometimes straight natural with a bandanna or wide head band on:

(for those early morning classes)

I knew some black girls who wore their hair in locs the entire time and boy did it grow.

Answer 2

I'll be in college this fall, I'll mainly wear my hair natural in messy buns and/or down. Wash and go's will probably be best since I'll be uber busy.

Answer 3

I'm still in college. I just wear my hair in braids.

Answer 4

natural and weaves occasionally
