Bad Natural Hair Days

So I know bad hair days are going to happen whether I'm relaxed or natural, but right now with my hair so short bad hair days seem a lot harder to fix without stepping in the shower and starting from scratch.

I had an idea for a hair style, based on some I've seen demonstrated on YouTube.  Last night I started braiding.  Once I started I couldn't stop.  When I was done I wasn't in love with it, but I convinced myself that in the morning with some fluffing it would be alright.

This morning, there wasn't enough fluffing in the world to counteract the weird shape my head appeared to be between the braids and the free hair.  Basically I'd braided too far back.  I refused to waste all that braiding time by just undoing everything this morning, plus if I had unbraided it I'd have had stretched braid out hair in the front and curly afro in the back...not cute.
So I partially unbraided the braids, did an abbreviated wash 'n go in the back and slapped on a head band.  I'm still not in love with it, but it was good enough to go to work.

What do you think?
