Since I just answered a question about African-American hair...I want to ask a really stupid questio

When you have your hair braided tightly in (what used to be called) corn rows...how do you tighten up the base as your hair grows...do you have to undo each one and rebraid it? Or can you just let it grow as is for a while. I know that other types of hair can do this as well and I hope this isn't too stupid a question...but there are no black people around here..so I can't really ask anyone..I'm asking on the GLBT site 'cause thats where I usually hang out . Thanks

It's a pain in the butt! Did it once, never do it again!! The braiding took FOREVER!!

But to answer your question you have to start all over again, especially if the hair that's growing in has to be treated.

You don't have to re-braid it for about two weeks because the new hair growth grows in between the corn rows.

Interesting question.

I look forward to reading the answers. Could you "add a detial" as to where did this originate ?

That's not a stupid question - or, at least, I've wondered it before now. Careful that you don't get another violation for "Miscategorised" though...
