Okay, yall, I’m fixing to return to my curly crochet braids roots. If I can find it at my local beauty supply store, I’ll pick up the curklalon I blogged about earlier. If not, I’ll pick up any pack of ringlets. I’ve done it several times as can be seen below and love how they came out.

I am horrible about maintaining my braids not because I don’t want to but because I am usually sooo busy! But I’m hopeful. If you want to try to crochet curly hair, get 2-3 packets with 4 inside. That’s what I’m doing anyway. I’ll report back:
