My next hair party is scheduled for around valentine's day. Probably right before. If you're in SF and can wait that long I can braid and bleach if you want. (Probably can't braid a whole head very well, but can definitely do the back and parts you can't see. Got a whole huge package of mini-rubberbands if you want them, although I always liked to super-glue my microbraids.)

My hair parties are turning into multi-zone affairs. My friend's stylist Tedd comes and does "real" cuts and color in the kitchen in exchange for money or treats, while the bathroom is for DIY crowd. (I alternate. As in, I like the pro to do do my roots and streaks, but I also have my own clippers and box of colors and bleach that I'm willing to share for no dollars. Especially since I get things wholesale now thanks to marvelous stylist-guy, and I also got a ton of colors online, super-cheap. Also always happy to do help with DIY things for free. This ain't no tupperware party.)

Exellent! I will Pm you when i figure out when I can get together.
