Cons
- WHY THE FUCK IS IT STILL WET I WASHED IT HOURS AGO WHY WON’T YOU JUST DRY OH MY GOD PLEASE
It’s a tough choice tbh
Maintaining long hair is so much work. Either youre pulling a favour/paying to have someone braid it regularly, which takes ages. If you decide to not braid it then you end up with an afro thats much more work to keep nice day to day.
