I remember doing this to my hair when I was a tween, oh-so-long-ago... Well, it seems that sleeping with braids is back! If you wait long enough, everything comes back. Does that mean we should hold on to our wardrobe for some future use? I actually saved some of my "unique trendy" clothing and shoes for my daughter when she is old enough to wear them. Hopefully the timing will be right and they will be in style for her. Do you remember Justin cowboy boots {popular in the 90's}? I put those away for her. Silly, huh? Or, she can just stare at them and ponder how I could have worn that stuff! Anyway, to get this look, which was used for Diane Von Furstenburg's Spring 2010 show, sleep on damp braids overnight. For the runway, they used cornrows and for timing purposes, used a flatiron to press and set the plaits (not exactly sure what that means). No product was used in her hair. Very pretty!
