I’m autistic and one of my stims is braiding, which is why I am now the only white girl on a braiding class LMAO. I actually love learning about different hair textures and how to take care of them and UGH the other girls in my class are so sweet too!!!

Aww I love that, I’m autistic I like to hear about other autistic people’s experiences. I understand the braiding too, I used to braid my hair when stimming. But now my hair is too short to do so 😆

Aww thats so cute/cool to have that opportunity!! My special interest is foraging and i suggest learning how to weave baskets its very similar depending on the style and can be done for free or at very small cost

What I do is I put embroidery floss on my water bottle and make friendship bracelets with it. It’s actually helped me a lot with the class since now instead of doing traditional friendship bracelets I’m practicing different types of braids! It’s fun!
