of course it will - look at the way its done

I only encourage those who have natural hair to do that sort of style and to not keep it in for long

permed hair won't be able to take that sort of picking

If its ghana weaving, i've had it done about three time and it didn't break my hair it all depends on your hair stylist. My stylist doesn't use extentions when starting the plaits, she starts with my hair and then she adds the extensions.That way hair wouldn't break and i even carry mine for 3weeks or a month.

ITS NOT THE CORNROWS(WEAVING), ITS THE EXCESSIVE TENSION THAT MOST AFRICAN BRAIDERS USE TO CAUSE ALOPECIA(HAIR LOSS).... What good is beautiful braids if when you take it down you see your hair raining down????? STAY AWAY FROM STYLISTS WHO USE EXCESSIVE FORCE. My sisters, its not worth the baldness.... try to go with someone whose styles are very neat but not too tight.... if you see those white bulbs, YOU ARE GOING BALD!!!!!
