  • I shaved off my natural hair 2 months ago, so right now it is super short! It is possible to box braid short hair, just so long as the braids are small enough.

I have been thinking about braiding it but it took forever when I had a lot of hair so now Im scared that it will take even longer. My friends use to make fun of me because I would have to take vacation because it would take so long.
