Wow, spa week sounds fun and exciting.
 
I've been to spas where employees had cornrows. Plus, I think they work with the moisture and sweat easier than the other styles.
 
You have to be careful with micro braids, they can pull your hair out.

Wow, Alexsandra, I never knew people thought cornrows looked unprofessional; that's a first for me. As far as microbraids, I dont know what it was, but everytime I got them done at the African braiding shop they would always trim up the braids to rid of loose hairs sticking out so when I would take out the braids my hair would be super thin. I left them in for 6 weeks, and of course at that time I was not properly caring for my hair. Needless to say, I don't get micros anymore.

Spa week is when all of the prices on services are discounted (massages, facials, manicures and pedicures)...I wanted to wear straightback braids for the spring, but my boss told me they were not professional. I'm so afriad of the micro braids lol. Do they really pull your hair out? I'm just tired of wearing buns and my hair sweats a lot because I do massages and it' going to get REALLY BUSY at the spa.

Well I'm in Cali so except for changing up my style to accommodate my summer swimming, I usually don't have a seasonal style.

I am however getting addicted to these wigs I've been making and wearing. I need to figure out how accommodate my diva side against my love of the water.. I've been wearing my hair cornrowed under the wigs, and it is not a good poolside look AT ALL for me! So I may switch to braids this summer myself.. It's been a GOOD minute since I wore braids.. I will probably do interlocks like the last time I wore braids..

Hey! Well I always wanted to try Micro braids. I currently work a Day Spa and SpaWeek is coming up in April. I'm not going to be able to keep up with my hair regimen, So I'm considering the braids.
