June 2 will start my 8th month having locs. I took the pin up down after a week because I could not take the pressure of the pins on my scalp. It was too much, my scalp is very soft, too. Plus with my disease:- hand-in-hair-itis - it is truly difficult keeping my hand away from pulling the pins out of my hair and taking it down...especially since it hurt.
Have a look at where I began and where I am today!

Now, here is the take down today. The clips here
were simply to keep the front down. I did not reloc or anything like that.
I'm happy with what I'm seeing. I GOT HANG TIME! Well, just a little. And I'm shaking them, too! LOL LOL LOL!
There is more firmness. I said it sometime in a recent post, the pinups help to keep the fuzziness at bay and I guess the loc gel/butter sets into the hair. And seeing as the hair is intertwined in the braid it has time to be firm and keep the set. I have more ends this time around that are firmer.
