Yes, the braids are tight, but they last longer that way :) Replies: Posted By: cmesweet Date Posted: October 26 2004 at 10:36pm You are getting bumps because your hair is too tight. The braids may last longer but maybe you would like to use gel as an alternative. You can develope alopecia (hair lost) from having your hair too tight. ------------- Natural BC May 9, 2004
