Jumbo Marley Twist: Protective Hairstyle

This post is so long overdo! So a few months ago I decided to try jumbo Marley twist, but longer than I did the year before and a different color. I got a lot of compliments on my hair so decided to share what type of hair I used and how the lady braided the hair. I did jumbo Marley twist and they're extremely long, but this is exactly how I envisioned the hair to look. I'm actually surprised that I didn't use many packs of hair since the hair is long and thick. I used seven packs of Jamaican Reggae Style 100% Kankelon Hair hair in the color OE2T30 (which is an ombre color, starts out dark brown at the roots and gets lighter until it turns very light brown at the tips of the hair). The lady who did my hair was very talented. Not only did she slay my hair, but she also completed my hair in five and a half hours, she's a very fast braider. She twisted the kankelon hair around by real hair at the roots, this is what protects the hair I guess because by doing so, my hair doesn't break off. She twisted the rest of the hair all the way down to my butt (it was really long and heavy) She also charges really cheap, so these twists were quite inexpensive. I love my hair and these twists are my new go-to protective hairstyle. 

*Sorry for the bad pictures, I never really took good pictures of the hair*


The hair in a bun. Took a long time to get it in a bun.



This is how long the hair is, you can't really see it but it's down to my waist.
